TNA recognised for exceptional international achievements in innovation and manufacturing excellence

Sydney, Australia, 06 December 2024 — TNA Solutions has won the prestigious Manufacturing and Advanced Materials Award at the 62nd Australian Export Awards. Selected from state finalists from across Australia, this award is part of Australia’s most prestigious and longest-running export recognition programme. Organised by the Export Council of Australia and the Australian Trade and Investment Commission (Austrade), it celebrates the international success of Australian companies exporting homegrown innovation to the world.

As a collaborative and consultative partner to food manufacturers, TNA operates with over 30 offices and more than 650 employees globally, offering hands-on support to maximise the value of its extensive portfolio of industry-leading systems and solutions. Founded 42 years ago by Alf and Nadia Taylor, who immigrated to Australia in the 1960s, TNA has grown from a single site in Melbourne into a global powerhouse, with more than 7 manufacturing centres of excellence, 14,000 systems installed in 130+ countries. The company’s international operations span the Americas, Europe, Asia and the MENA region.

“Being a homegrown Australian brand, we take great pride in our heritage and in bringing Australian manufacturing to the world,” comments Alf Taylor, Managing Director and Co-founder of TNA Solutions.

Despite its international success, TNA remains deeply connected to its Australian roots. The company’s corporate headquarters and three manufacturing sites, focusing on confectionery and packaging technologies, are based in Australia.

This accolade rounds out a successful year for the company globally. In September, it opened the doors of the TNA Innovation Centres in Woerden, the Netherlands, and Dallas, USA. These centres showcase the cutting-edge innovations that help food manufacturers in Europe and North America to stay ahead of market demands. More recently, TNA also unveiled the tna intelli-assistTM, an immersive industrial XR and simulation platform.

Beyond its commercial success, TNA is a strong advocate for social justice. Through the Nadia and Alf Taylor Foundation, the company has supported over 150 charities in 43 countries, directly impacting the lives of more than 20,000 people.
