What PERI Australia / NZ does

PERI Australia Pty. Ltd. is the Australian and New Zealand operating subsidiary of PERI Group, a privately held German formwork manufacturer founded in 1969. The local entity was established approximately 27 years ago (around 1998) and operates from its headquarters at Glendenning NSW (Sydney), with three additional branch offices and yards in Brisbane, Melbourne, and Perth serving all Australian states and territories, plus a separate wholly-owned PERI New Zealand subsidiary. The company supplies modular formwork, scaffolding, and shoring systems to building construction contractors, civil infrastructure contractors (bridges, tunnels, dams, water treatment), and scaffolding/access customers, with documented project references including the Martin Place Tunnel civil engineering engagement.

The product portfolio spans wall formwork (MAXIMO, TRIO, DUO, VARIO GT 24), slab formwork (SKYDECK, MULTIFLEX, GRIDFLEX, ALPHADECK), column and circular formwork, climbing systems (RCS MAX, RCS, SCS, ACS, LPS), the PERI UP Flex modular scaffolding platform, and the VARIOKIT civil engineering kit covering cantilevered parapet brackets, tunnel carriages, and heavy-duty shoring. A digital product layer includes the InSite sensor suite — PREMO for concrete pressure monitoring, TEMO for temperature/maturity, and PHONO for compaction (developed in partnership with VEMA) — feeding the cloud-based InSite Construction Web Application. Supporting software includes PERI CAD on BricsCAD, Formwork Load Calculator, MULTIFLEX Configurator, VGK Design Tool, PERI QuickSolve Planner, and a Mixed Reality visualization application.

Revenue is generated through a quote-based sales and rental model: equipment sales (formwork, scaffolding, shoring, panels/plywood), equipment rental (with rent-or-buy options including the 'Make It Yours' ownership program for TRIO and SKYDECK), professional services (cleaning and repair, on-site services, custom fabrication, formwork training, digital engineering support), and digital product sales/rentals. Go-to-market is sales-led, with customers engaging through branch offices, the website contact form, phone inquiries, and an exhibition hall for hands-on product evaluation. Pricing is not publicly disclosed, and contracts are negotiated per project.

Revenue model

1. Equipment Sales: Sale of formwork systems, scaffolding equipment, shoring products, construction accessories, and plywood/panel products. Customers can purchase PERI systems directly to own and build their own stockyard.
2. Equipment Rental: Rental of formwork and scaffolding systems for projects where ownership is not preferred. The company offers flexible rent-or-buy options and the VGK system is specifically mentioned as a rentable system.
3. Services: Comprehensive services including cleaning and repair services to improve product service life, on-site services, custom fabrication services for project-specific formwork requirements, and training services for formwork use and maintenance.
4. Digital Products: Sale and/or rental of concrete sensors (PREMO, TEMO, PHONO) and related software applications for construction monitoring and data analysis.

Partnerships

One partnership is on record.

• VEMAcoreTechnology or IntegrationVEMA is a technology partner for the PHONO Concrete Compaction Sensor. The sensor monitors concrete compaction easily, even in hard-to-reach formwork areas, minimising the risk of gaps between concrete and adjacent components. This partnership brings sensor technology expertise to PERI's digital construction monitoring portfolio.
