A Decade of Concrete Commitment

On June 10, 2015, Concrete Products Australia (CPA) poured its very first product—and hasn’t looked back since. From humble beginnings in regional Queensland, CPA has grown into a trusted supplier of precast concrete solutions for civil, rural, agricultural, and infrastructure projects across Australia.


Owned and operated by Peter and Katrina Faust, CPA proudly continues the legacy of MillTrack NQ, blending local knowledge with engineering precision. This year, as we celebrate our 10-year anniversary, we’re not just looking back—we’re setting the foundation for an even stronger future.


From Regional Roots to National Reach

In 2015, CPA started with a simple mission: to deliver reliable, regulation-compliant concrete products tailored to Australian conditions. Today, we’ve hit a major milestone—our 10,000th reinforced concrete box culvert (RCBC) poured.



But that’s not all. Over the past decade, CPA has delivered:

  • 232,345 concrete sleepers—spanning 313.67 km (from Proserpine to Townsville)

  • 11,235 concrete fence posts

  • 2,865 headwalls

  • Over 5,000 agriculture and aquaculture components

  • 3,865 concrete pipes, totalling over 10 km in length

In total, our plant has poured 18,495.81 cubic meters of concrete—a figure that represents not only scale, but trust, performance, and craftsmanship.


Built to Last: Why Precast Matters

Whether you're laying culverts beneath a railway or installing troughs on a cattle station, precast concrete is the backbone of dependable infrastructure.


Why Professionals Trust CPA Products:

  • Durability under pressure: Engineered to meet and exceed Australian Standards like AS/NZS 9001 and AS/NZS 1597

  • Consistent quality: All products are manufactured in controlled environments to ensure reliability, strength, and uniformity

  • Efficient installation: Precast saves time and labour costs on-site, ideal for remote, rural, or weather-dependent jobs

  • Low maintenance: Long lifespan with minimal repair needs—perfect for roads, drainage, and remote infrastructure

  • Sustainability and compliance: In 2025, CPA proudly achieved tri-certification—gaining ISO accreditation for Quality, Safety, and Environmental Management


These standards speak directly to the needs of our clients in civil construction, government infrastructure, agriculture, aquaculture, and resource industries.


Honouring Local Legacy

CPA’s journey has always been rooted in local manufacturing and regional expertise. Based in North Queensland, the business continues to support:

  • Contractors and councils

  • Farmers and grazier operations

  • Mining and maritime projects

  • DIY builders and rural developers


By choosing Australian-made concrete products, our customers know they’re investing in materials built for tough conditions, heavy loads, and long-term performance.


More Milestones to Come

From a small facility to a tri-certified operation with thousands of successful installations, CPA’s first decade reflects everything we stand for—reliability, consistency, and dedication to quality.

But the story’s just beginning.


As we move into our next decade, we remain committed to:

  • Expanding our product range

  • Adopting new technologies and sustainable practices

  • Strengthening partnerships with our contracting clients

  • Supporting the backbone of Australia’s regional infrastructure


Want to work with a concrete supplier that’s built on trust, results, and proven performance?





Here’s to 10 years of excellence—and many more to come.
