Our History

Founded in 2004 by the Gillies family, Fairview was built on a vision to elevate facade delivery through innovation, technical expertise and strong partnerships. Since then, we have evolved into a system-led facade partner, supporting thousands of projects across Australia with integrated facade solutions that help teams deliver with confidence.

Our story began as an evolution of a family-owned business specialising in industrial paint coating systems. In Fairview's early years, coating technology for aluminium panel products became a key focus, ensuring exceptional performance, durability and quality throughout fabrication and installation. As demand grew, so did our reach, with Fairview supplying an increasing number of projects across Australia's eastern seaboard.

Driven by the changing needs of the construction industry, we have always focused on delivering solutions that help architects, builders and installers achieve better project outcomes. In 2015, we launched Vitracore G2 in response to the growing demand for compliant, non-combustible cladding solutions. As Australia's first and only non-combustible aluminium composite panel at the time, Vitracore G2 set a new benchmark for facade safety and performance.

Since then, Fairview has continued to expand its product offering and capabilities, driven by the same entrepreneurial spirit that shaped our beginnings. While aluminium remains at the core of our expertise, our portfolio now includes a diverse range of facade materials, including fibre cement, terracotta and brick systems, enabling us to support a broader range of architectural outcomes. In 2022, we introduced Genesis, a prefinished compressed fibre cement facade system that has since become our best-selling product.

Today, Fairview partners with designers, builders and installers across Australia to deliver complete facade systems backed by technical expertise, trusted support and reliable project delivery. What began as a family business focused on panel supply has grown into a broader facade partner, bringing together products, systems, engineering and expertise to help make better buildings possible.
