In the midst of tough times for Australian manufacturers, it’s uplifting to share some positive news about an Australian business that is making inroads here in Australia and is now looking to expand internationally.
Nature’s Shield, an Australian company founded in 2015 specialises in natural and organic products for people, plants, and animals. Nature’s Shield’s Operations Manager Siby Kuriachan shares their story. “Before founding Natures Shield, we were importing herbal products and oils from India. Few Health Food shops approached us to see if we could provide top-quality organic black seed oil and Nature’s Shield was born. As more stores started carrying our products, we expanded our range and grew further through distributors.”
From the beginning, Siby has always been driven by a clear vision to offer superior quality products at affordable prices. “Word of mouth has played a significant role in our growth, and once the business took off, there was no looking back.” Siby credits this success to the trust customers place in the brand for delivering the best quality.
As demand grew, Nature’s Shield turned to automation to improve efficiency and productivity. They invested in a complete line from Packserv including a filler, capper, labeller, conveyors, infeed, and outfeed tables. “We did our homework and chose Packserv’s full-line solution for the quality of their machinery, and the right price point. We have been really impressed with the speed and accuracy which enables us to provide a high quality presented product to customers.” The switch from a semi-manual to an automated solution has enabled Nature’s Shield to more than double the output speed.
Siby adds, “Another deciding factor was the local service support. If something goes wrong, having local service is just as crucial as quality and price.”
“Nature’s Shield is a great example of an Australian business that has successfully navigated tough business conditions and continues to grow by focusing on quality,” says Nathan Wardell, Managing Director of Packserv. “We’re delighted to work with Nature’s Shield offering solutions to support their ongoing growth and success.”
