Queensland algae innovators, a Victorian warehouse tech developer, and a South Australian firm focused on plastic-free wet wipes are among the last six companies to receive funding from the Advanced Manufacturing Growth Centre‘s $30 million Commercialisation Fund.
Minister for Industry and Science Ed Husic on Tuesday announced a federal co-investment of more than $2.1 million into the six firms, closing out an oversubscribed fund designed to accelerate local, cutting-edge manufacturing.
Topping the list with nearly $645,000 in funding is Adelaide-based The Hygiene Co. Pty Ltd, which bills itself as Australia’s only manufacturer of plastic-free wet wipes.
The co-investment will help The Hygiene Co.
