ASAHI DIAMOND INDUSTRIAL AUSTRALIA PTY LTD
Our Story
In 1947 Triefus Company Ltd. became a public company and its shares were quoted on the London Stock Exchange. At this time there became an increasing awareness of the importance of Diamond tools in the modern industrial world. An engineer was appointed to the team and following a small investment Triefus and Company Limited commenced manufacturing single point Diamond dressers.
By 1949 a small manufacturing company was established which made its first take-over in 1952. Expansion became rapid and profits grew. Also in 1949 a survey of Diamond tool and drilling potential was undertaken in Australia. Sales of rough Diamond commenced in 1950 and a small manufacturing plant was set up the following year. Similar plants were also established in other countries including France and India.
World demand for industrial Diamond products increased dramatically and the close links already established with industrial Diamond merchants and product manufacturers resulted in rapid growth for the Triefus group. A particularly close association developed between the Triefus UK manufacturing company and the Asahi Diamond Industrial Co. Limited, which had been established in Tokyo in 1937. This close association was later expanded to include cross shareholdings and eventually led to Asahi taking control of the Triefus Group in 1990.
