IWD Pty Ltd, located in Fremantle West Australia, commenced operations in the mid 1960s when a number of wool exporters / buyers saw the opportunity to improve the efficiency of exporting wool when containerisation was introduced in Australia. By compressing (dumping) the size of the farm packed wool bale and containerising the finished product substantial cost and efficiency savings were generated.

IWD Pty Ltd designed and manufactured a number of Large Hydraulic Wool Dumping Presses to undertake this operation. Using these presses and specially produced Steel Strapping Bands, up to 120 wool bales are able to be packed into each container, giving a full 100% utilization.

IWD Pty Ltd is one of the largest wool dumping Operations in the Southern Hemisphere. It has the ability to receive, dump and containerise bales for shipment to all parts of the world. This facility is fully computerised and each individual wool bale is registered and tracked through the facility by using state of the art barcode technology and computer systems.

The close liason between IWD Logistics and IWD ensures a smooth process that delivers a streamlined service to our clients ensuring minimal delays to our supply chain.
