I would like to take this opportunity to give a shout-out to Titomic, a great local manufacturer in Chisolm. I had the pleasure of visiting the Titomic facility in Mount Waverley and meeting with CEO Herbert Koeck and head of sales Dominic Parsonson to learn more about their Titomic Kinetic Fusion technology, which allows them to work with some of the toughest metals there are. This is a real step forward for advanced manufacturing. I would like to congratulate Titomic for being awarded a $2.3 million Modern Manufacturing Initiative grant. This grant will help Titomic make cutting-edge low-emission green titanium space vehicle parts. This technology will also help us meet and beat our net zero target by 2050 and propel Australia to the forefront of space manufacturing. It is also creating high-skill, high-value and high-paying jobs right now in my electorate of Chisolm. The Morrison Liberal government is proud to have established the $1.5 billion Modern Manufacturing Strategy to help manufacturers across Australia just like Titomic.
