About Us
25 Years of Quality Service
EMSS Electric Motor Sales and Service P/L are continuing to help keep the wheels of industry turning after nearly a quarter of a century of service. From power plants to water treatment, war ships to Jumbo jets, wherever electromotive power is required EMSS have been there.
The business commenced in 1982 and operated from a premises at Mordialloc, Victoria which today is an area that has been rezoned and genrified. Back then it was not unusual to see semi-trailors lined up out the front of the factory while loading and unloading large electric machines. In 1990 the business out grew the quaint premises in Mordialloc and relocated to the present modern facility located in Jarrah Drive, Braeside, Victoria.
Senior members of the organisation have been in the industry for up to forty years and the engineering experience gained in that period is quite incredible for the bizarre circumstances it has sometime placed them in. Power stations in remove Pacific islands, container ships out at sea, industrial sites in Taiwan, gold mines in remote Australia, and these are only a sample of the situations required of them.
Over the years EMSS have also designed and manufactured industrial electrical equipment for both export and local consumption and the brand name has found its way to Canada and the USA. EMSS also represent several European manufacturers of high quality motors and drive systems as well as specialized equipment for the commerical aviation industry.
Being a business requiring mutli skilled trade and technical personnel it is one that has heavily invested in training and engaged more than its fair share of apprentices over the years. In recent times however, due to a lack of interest by suitable young candidates and predjudice against trade careers from parents and teachers, its has become more difficult to recruit for the trades and has resulted in more innovative approaches being taken such as adult training and multi skilling of other trade qualified personnel. EMSS have consistently invested in the skills development of all their personnel and the success of the business is testament to this commitment. In 1991, the business expanded into NSW and a new era in distribution and service began further establising a more national identity.
Now as we move through the 21st century, EMSS has evolved into an organisation that facilitates solutions for a wide range of industries, and its people as always, are the greatest asset on offer.
