Workspace announces expansion of facility, new circular furniture program

Workspace Commercial Furniture, a 114-year-old business based at the Adelaide suburb of Melrose Park, has launched the expansion of production and warehousing at its headquarters as well as a new “take back” program for used furniture.

According to a statement from the company on Monday, the expansion would allow it to “increase output and meet the growing demand” across Australia with greater efficiency and speed.

“The expansion of our Melrose Park facility represents a significant milestone for Workspace and for Australian manufacturing,” said Tom Clark, CEO. 

“This investment is not only about increasing our capacity but also about strengthening our commitment to supporting Australian jobs, delivering high-quality furniture solutions nationwide, and driving sustainability in the industry.”

The size and cost of the expansion at its Production and Warehouse Facility were not given.

Workspace also shared news of its Workspace Circular Solutions program, which it said is designed to enhance our circular economy efforts “by ensuring that all furniture—not just Workspace products—can be responsibly repurposed, refurbished, or recycled at the end of its lifecycle.”  

Workspace describes itself as the nation’s largest diversified commercial furniture manufacturer, offering custom-made solutions across sectors including commercial, education, hospitality, health, aged care, and accommodation. It operates showrooms in Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Canberra, and Brisbane.
