Our story

In the 1980’s the Australian sugar industry needed a more efficient centrifuge screen able to provide long working life and withstand extreme abrasion. Australia’s national research agency, CSIRO rose to the challenge, developing and patenting the technology on which ActionLaser was founded in 1988.
