Supporting our local Master Builders Associations

Edcon Steel - Master Builders Associations

Edcon Steel is proud to have been part of Australia’s steel industry for the last 50 years and is a proud member and supporter of several industry bodies that support and advocate for the sector.

The Master Builders Association (MBA) of NSW is a not-for-profit organisation committed to protecting and advancing the interests of the building and construction industry. Edcon Steel is a proud sponsor of our local MBAS, the Manly Warringah division and the Northern Suburbs division.

"Edcon Steel’s partnership with our local MBA chapters shows their deep commitment to the building and construction industry. It’s more than steel, it’s about community."

Why do we support our local Master Builders Associations?

As the leading industry association for building and construction in New South Wales, the MBA is vital in assisting the industry in key areas such as industrial relations, workplace health and safety, legal and contracts, training and government regulation/legislation.

As the oldest employer association in Australia, the MBA is the only industry body that represents all sectors within the building and construction industry.

MBA NSW and its subdivisions are key advocates for industry professionals across the state, supporting members with issues such as industrial relations, OH&S, legal matters, and more.

Edcon Steel works with industry professionals every day, and we believe in the MBA’s work to protect and advocate for the industry in our local areas – that’s why we are proud sponsors of the MBA’s Manly Warringah and Northern Suburbs divisions.

"I trust Edcon because they not only supply quality steel but also support the organisations that support us builders."

Proud sponsors of our local MBAs

The local divisions of MBA regularly hold information nights for its members, where industry experts present on local industry issues and legislation. These nights not only provide important information and great networking opportunities but also allow those in the local industry to have a say. They are also the perfect opportunity to exchange project stories with others in the industry and learn about potential opportunities and challenges.

The Manly Warringah Division of the Master Builders Association of NSW has been in operation for more than 85 years. The Manly Warringah Information Nights are held on the second Thursday of every month (excluding December & January) at The Builders Club Dee Why from 5:30 pm.

The Northern Suburbs Information Nights are held on the third Thursday of every month between February and November at Roseville Golf Club from 6 p.m. Please note that Division Nights for March to July will be held at The Ranch, North Ryde, due to renovations.
