With operations principally in Australia and New Zealand, CSR maintains an extensive network of manufacturing facilities, distribution centres, and sales offices. The company leverages local expertise and scale to optimize logistics, quality control, and customer support, while also exploring opportunities in adjacent markets and specialty building segments. Its sales channels include direct partnerships with construction firms, retail contractors, and large home-building groups, complemented by e-commerce platforms and technical advisory services.
Founded in 1855 as the Colonial Sugar Refining Company, CSR has evolved from its origins in the sugar industry into a diversified building materials group. Over the ensuing decades, the company divested non-core assets and invested in research and development to enhance its product offerings and manufacturing processes. A significant strategic realignment in the early 2010s saw CSR exit its sugar operations, refocusing capital and management attention on the development of high-performance building systems and sustainable construction solutions.
Today, CSR is guided by an experienced executive leadership team and board of directors committed to driving innovation, operational excellence, and environmental stewardship. The company’s ongoing priorities include reducing its carbon footprint, expanding its suite of energy-efficient materials, and maintaining robust safety and quality standards across its facilities. CSR’s longstanding heritage and in-market relationships underpin its reputation as a leading supplier to the Australasian construction industry.
