Midwest Fabrication

Midwest Fabrication started life on a property in The Gums, Queensland, Australia. After purchasing his first combine harvester with no front, Martin Schutt believed he could build a front for himself that was designed for the undulated country he would be harvesting in. It was through sheer determination that saw the very first Midwest platform come to life in 1998. To this day, Martin has continued to develop an industry-leading, globally recognised product and continues to grow the family-owned and operated business. A purpose-built piece of machinery was the catalyst for establishing a business that would support Australian farmers and our national agriculture industry. Midwest Fabrication has led the way in innovative design in harvesting operations, pioneering the world’s largest platform and manufacturing the only harvesting draper fronts made in Australia.
