Headquartered in the Southern Highlands of New South Wales, the Tyree Group has built an enviable reputation for high quality manufacturing, engineering excellence and continued investment into modern manufacturing equipment and, most importantly, high-value job creation. \nThe Tyree Group structure\nTyree Group operates through four distinct yet complementary business streams: Tyree Cable, Tyree Transformers, Tyree New Zealand, and Tyree Switchboards. Together, they form an integrated network of transformer and cable manufacturing capabilities, serving multiple markets across the Pacific region.\nTyree Transformers  widely recognised as a leading manufacturer of power and distribution transformers and substations, supplying utilities, industrials, defence, infrastructure, data centres, mining, renewable generation and energy storage projects across Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific Islands. \nToday, the Transformer business operates at a significant scale in manufacturing facilities across Braemar and Narellan, New South Wales; Yatala, Queensland; and Mangere, Auckland. These operations include nine modern, fully equipped workshops, providing more than 40,000 square metres of floor space. Together, these facilities support a vertically integrated manufacturing capability, ranging from pole mount and ground mount distribution transformers through to larger power transformers, kiosk substations, low voltage switchboards, and associated metal fabrication and finishing.\nTyree Cable is the cable and copper manufacturing division of the Tyree Group and a key contributor to the broader Australian electrical manufacturing industry. Its products are widely applied in sectors including transportation, infrastructure, manufacturing, agriculture, commercial, residential, industry, mining, and quarrying. \nOperating from three manufacturing operations in South East Melbourne and utilising 35,000 square metres of factory space, Tyree Cable leverages advanced, globally benchmarked production machinery and automation. \nTyree Cable is also the only Australian manufacturer of copper rod used in the production of electrical cables. By sourcing raw copper cathode directly from Australian mines, Tyree applies the globally recognised, best-in-class UpCast process to produce electrical grade copper for both cable production and copper products used in packaging applications. \nTyree’s cable and copper operation stands as a compelling demonstration of how Australia’s resource wealth can be transformed into advanced manufacturing capability and export competitive products. \nThis integrated copper supply chain enables Australian mined copper to be transformed into finished cable products onshore, supporting local jobs, strengthening industrial capability, and retaining the value of critical minerals within Australia. \nEighty years of continuity\nTyree’s recent celebration of 80 years in business underscores the durability of its founding vision and the resilience of its manufacturing base. Established by Sir William Tyree, the company’s origins lie in the post-war era of industrialisation and electrification, when Australia’s growing cities and industries required reliable, locally manufactured electrical equipment.\nAcross eight decades, the Group has navigated multiple waves of technological change, economic cycles and evolving policy shifts in energy and industry. What distinguishes Tyree is its sustained commitment to onshore manufacturing. Rather than offshoring production, the business has consistently invested in Australian and New Zealand capability, supporting high value added employment and delivering meaningful training and skills development opportunities.\nThe decision to maintain and grow local manufacturing capability enables Tyree to provide customers with secure, shorter supply chains, enhanced responsiveness, and products designed specifically for Australian and New Zealand conditions, produced using world-leading technology. It also positions the company as a key contributor to workforce development, supporting the training and employment of tradespeople, engineers, and technicians, sustaining critical industrial skills underpinning the energy transition and the broader economy.\nMeeting the future\nThe continuous reinvestment of company profits into facilities, equipment, and our people has enabled Tyree to achieve a leading position in its target markets. This sustained investment has driven the expansion of workshop facilities, the acquisition of modern, world-leading equipment, and the adoption of advanced automation, robotics, and digitalisation.\nMore importantly, Tyree continues to invest in our people, building the skills required to lead its markets while driving continuous improvement to deliver best-in-class products.\nThe continuous development of local manufacturing and engineering skills is in Tyree’s DNA, reflecting Sir William’s enduring mantra to always be “Future Ready”!\nSupporting the energy transition\nTyree’s growth in recent years has been closely aligned with global and domestic shifts in energy systems, particularly the expansion of renewable generation, energy storage, and the electrification of transportation. The company has invested in products and capabilities that directly support grid-scale battery energy storage systems, solar and wind farms, and the broader modernisation of the electricity grid.\nTyree’s equipment also underpins the expansion of data centres, which demand reliable, high capacity electrical infrastructure and precise voltage regulation.\nAs electric vehicles, distributed energy resources, and digital loads reshape demand profiles, Tyree provides utilities and industry with practical solutions to manage these evolving requirements. Its transformer product portfolio spans step voltage regulators, kiosk substations, and larger power transformers. This positions the company at the centre of the infrastructure build out needed to meet net zero targets and broader electrification goals.\nThe Tyree Foundation story\nAt the heart of the Tyree story is the Sir William Tyree Foundation, established by Sir William and his family in the early 1970s and operating as an active philanthropic organisation to this day. The foundation focuses on supporting engineering, medical, and education initiatives, reflecting Sir William’s belief in the transformative power of technical education and research.\nThe Foundation has backed scholarships and programs at leading Australian universities, including initiatives for engineering students at institutions such as UNSW, the University of Queensland, RMIT, Curtin University, Newcastle University, the University of Tasmania, Central Queensland University and the University of South Australia. The Foundation also supported major cultural and educational initiatives, including a significant investment in the Powerhouse Parramatta museum development, as well as various programs supporting women in engineering and leadership.\nA defining feature of the Tyree group’s structure is that it is fully Australian owned by a testamentary trust whose sole purpose is to provide profits for charitable distribution. As the company itself notes, no dividends are paid to shareholders; instead, profits flow into philanthropic activities through the Tyree Foundation and the sustainable reinvestment in the Tyree business.\nProfits with a purpose\nWithin this unique ownership model, Tyree has embedded philanthropy into the core of its business by directing a substantial share of annual profits to the Tyree Foundation. This means that commercial success translates directly into expanded support for engineering education, medical research, and broader community initiatives.\nIn practical terms, fifty percent of Tyree Group's profits each year are committed to The Foundation’s work, an unusually high allocation in corporate philanthropy that underscores the Tyree family’s long term perspective and values. This approach aligns the interests of employees, customers, and communities by making growth in the business a driver of positive social and educational outcomes.\nThe foundation’s sustained investment in scholarships, research chairs, laboratories, and educational facilities has helped nurture successive generations of engineers and professionals. These programs not only honour Sir William’s and the Tyree family's legacy, but also reinforce the talent pipeline needed to keep Australia and New Zealand at the forefront of engineering and manufacturing innovation.\nContinued family connection\nDespite its scale and corporate sophistication, Tyree remains a family connected enterprise, with members of the Tyree family still actively involved in governance and oversight. This continuity provides a direct link for the company’s professional management team and all of Team Tyree back to Sir William’s founding vision, helping to ensure that decisions are guided by long term commitments rather than short term financial imperatives.\nFamily involvement also supports the close alignment between the operating Tyree Group businesses and the Tyree Foundation, ensuring that philanthropic objectives remain central to strategic planning. It reinforces a culture in which employees understand that their work contributes not only to commercial outcomes but also to broader social and educational benefits.\nThis continuity of ownership and purpose is particularly important in an era when many local manufacturing assets have passed through multiple corporate owners or been dismantled entirely. Tyree’s ability to maintain a coherent, values driven ownership structure over eight decades is a significant part of its story and a point of differentiation in the industrial landscape.\nA model for Australian and New Zealand manufacturing\nTyree’s recent initiatives highlight how the company is evolving its culture and partnerships to meet contemporary industry expectations. The Group has embarked on a formal reconciliation journey, engaged with the Australian Energy Regulator on the role of transformers in the energy transition, remained an active participant in industry forums, and piloted a project to improve mental health outcomes in Australian manufacturing workplaces.\nThe business also continues to invest in apprenticeships, undergraduate scholars and early career development, regularly welcoming new apprentice cohorts and hosting community open days that showcase its manufacturing operations and career opportunities. These programs help sustain a pipeline of skilled workers and demonstrate that advanced manufacturing offers rewarding careers in both Australia and New Zealand.\nAll this underlines why Tyree stands as a powerful example of what Australian manufacturing can achieve: a company that designs and builds critical infrastructure domestically, supports the energy transition, and channels a significant share of its profits back into education, research, and community projects. \nThe achievements of the entire Tyree team, from the factory floor to the engineering office, the boardroom and the foundation, merit recognition as a leading model of both industrial excellence and social contribution.\n","text":"**A great local manufacturer delivering the future today **\n\nTeam Tyree brings together over 650 Australians and 50 New Zealanders, united in continuing the vision of Sir William Tyree and the Tyree family.

We want to ensure that you get the information, content, and experiences that matter most to you. ConnectOre is committed to protecting the privacy of its stakeholders, communities, and other contacts.\n\n## Scope\n\nThis privacy policy applies to all personal data processed by full-time and part-time employees, volunteers when acting on behalf of ConnectOre contractors and partners doing business on behalf of ConnectOre, as well as all legal entities, all operating locations in all countries, and all business processes conducted by ConnectOre.\n\n## Information Collected\n\n#### What information do we collect?\n\nConnectOre collects the following personal data in line with the use purposes explained in a subsequent section:\n\n  * Your name and contact details\n  * Online profile data/usage\n  * Contact information\n  * Social media profile information\n  * Education and professional information\n  * Registration and participation in ConnectOre events and activities \n  * Information about service usage\n  * Cookies\n  * Authentication data\n  * Location information\n  * Author and peer review information\n  * Other information you upload or provide to us\n\n#### How do we use your information?\n\nConnectOre uses (and, where specified, shares) your personal information for the following purposes:\n\n  * To provide support or other services. ConnectOre may use your personal information to provide you with support or other services that you have ordered or requested. ConnectOre may also use your personal information to respond directly to your requests for information, including registrations for webinars, or other specific requests, or pass your contact information to the appropriate ConnectOre supplier or reseller for further follow-up related to your interests.\n  * To provide information based on your needs and respond to your requests. ConnectOre may use your personal information to provide you with notices of new product releases and service developments.\n  * To administer products. ConnectOre may contact you if you make use of (digital) products we offer, to confirm certain information (for example, that you did not experience problems in a download process). We may also use this information to confirm compliance with licensing and other terms of use and may share it with your company/institution.\n  * To assist in your participation in ConnectOre activities. ConnectOre will communicate with you, if you are participating in certain ConnectOre activities such as ConnectOre Summit, authoring or reviewing a ConnectOre article, or ConnectOre humanitarian activities.

ConnectOre may communicate with you regarding relevant ConnectOre events and opportunities.\n  * To protect ConnectOre content and services. We may use your information to prevent potentially illegal activities and to enforce our terms and conditions.\n  * To get feedback or input from you.

If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under 16, we will delete that information as quickly as possible. If you believe that we might have any information from or about a child under age 16, please contact us.\n\n#### How will you know if the Privacy Policy is changed?\n\nConnectOre may update its Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make any material changes you will be notified by means of a notice on our website prior on the date the change becomes effective. We encourage you to periodically review this page for the latest information on our privacy practices.\n\n## Technical And Regulatory Information\n\n#### Logging practices\n\nConnectOre automatically records the Internet Protocol (IP) addresses of visitors. The IP address is a unique number assigned to every computer on the internet. Generally, an IP address changes each time you connect to the internet (it is a \"dynamic\" address). Note, however, that if you have a broadband connection, depending on your individual circumstance, the IP address that we collect may contain information that could be deemed identifiable. This is because, with some broadband connections, your IP address doesn't change (it is \"static\") and could be associated with your personal computer.\n\nAs well as recording the IP addresses of users, ConnectOre may also keep track of sites that users visited immediately prior to visiting ConnectOre's website and the search terms they used to find it. We keep track of the pages visited on ConnectOre's website, the amount of time spent on those pages and the types of searches done on them. Your searches remain confidential and anonymous. ConnectOre uses this information only for statistical purposes to find out which pages users find most useful and to improve the website.\nConnectOre also captures and stores information that you transmit. This may include:\n\n  * Browser/Device type/version\n  * Operating system used\n  * Media Access Control (MAC) address\n  * Date and time of the server request\n  * Volume of data transferred\n\n#### External links behaviour\n\nSome of the links on ConnectOre's websites link to other sites created and maintained by other public- and/or private-sector organizations. ConnectOre provides these links solely for your information and convenience. When you transfer to an outside website, you are leaving ConnectOre domain, and ConnectOre's information management policies no longer apply. ConnectOre encourages you to read the privacy statement of each external website that you visit before you provide any personal data.\n\n#### Cookies and web beacons\n\nCookies and web beacons are electronic placeholders that are placed on your device by websites to track your individual movements on that website over time. ConnectOre uses both session-based cookies (which last only for the duration of the user's session) and persistent cookies (which remain on your device and provide information about the session you are in and waits for the next time you use that site again).\n\nThese cookies and web beacons provide useful information to ConnectOre, enabling us to recognize repeat users, facilitate the user's access to and use of our sites, allows us to track usage behavior, and to balance the usage of our websites on all ConnectOre web servers.\nTracking cookies, third-party cookies, and other technologies such as web beacons may be used to process additional information, enable non-core functionalities on ConnectOre website and enable third-party functions (such as a social media \"share\" link). We may also include web beacons and other similar technology in promotional email messages to determine whether the messages have been opened.\n\n#### Do Not Track (DNT)\n\nThe online advertising industry has self-regulatory initiatives designed to provide consumers a choice in the types of ads they may see online and to conveniently opt-out from online behavioral ads served by some or all of the companies participating in these programs. Our websites do not respond to DNT consumer browser settings.\n\n#### Responses to legal requests\n\nConnectOre reserves the right to share your information to respond to duly authorized information requests of governmental authorities or where required by law.\n\n#### Your data rights\n\nConnectOre complies with all applicable data privacy laws and regulations including, but not limited to, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). Under these laws and regulations, you may have certain rights to your data. Should you wish to exercise any of these rights, please send an email request to john.fennell@copper.com.au with \"Data Privacy Request'' in the subject line and in the email please identify the specific privacy right you request assistance with. Please note additional information may be requested prior to fulfilling a request and that ConnectOre reserves the right to charge a fee, where permitted, to cover the cost of certain requests.\n\n#### How do I contact you if there is an issue?\nIf you have any questions or concerns about this Privacy Policy or about the use of your personal information, please feel free to contact us by email at john.fennell@copper.com.au"},"welcomeUrl":"https://connectore.org/app/welcome","welcomeTitle":"Welcome to ConnectOre and thanks for joining us!
