8 Of The Best Shearing Shed Fit-Out Suppliers (Ratings & Reviews)

  • 5 Minute Read

The fit out can make or break a new shearing shed build.

Get it right and the result is a safe, efficient and ergonomic shearing shed. 

Shearing teams will be happy, sheep will be shorn and you’ll be less stressed. And it will work for years to come.

Get the design wrong, and the opposite can be true. 

Poorly designed shearing shed fit outs can result in inefficiencies, uncomfortable working conditions and frustrated shearers. Shearing becomes a more stressful time than it needs to be. And you could soon be looking to upgrade your fit out.

In other words, the fit out design is arguably the most important part of a new shearing shed build. 

But who should design your shearing shed fit out? Which supplier is best?

Building a new shearing shed can be a complex project. And a substantial investment. 

So, you want to be confident that you have chosen the right supplier for your shearing shed.  

As a farm shed builder servicing Victoria, South Australia and New South Wales we work in with a number of leading fit out designers and suppliers, including Commander Ag-Quip and ProWay Livestock Equipment.

To help you with your research, we have collated a list of some of the most popular shearing shed specialists in Australia. We hope you find it helpful.
