Today we pause to recognise ANZAC Day.

A day to reflect on the courage, sacrifice, and service of those who have served, and those who continue to serve.
We remember those who gave their lives, and the families who carry that legacy.

Lest we forget.

We’d like to share details of a memorial being held in honour of our friend Leo Van Oostveen.

Leo’s family has asked us to pass on arrangements for a day to celebrate his life on Saturday, 2nd May.

The day will begin at Peter Tobin Funeral Home, Doveton Street North, meeting at 10:50am for an 11:00am sharp departure.

A procession will then travel to Creswick Cemetery, with a convoy of hot rods and bikes, all vehicles are welcome to join.

Following this, there will be a gathering at Eureka Stockade Park, Ballarat, for a BBQ and music, something Leo himself helped organise prior to his passing.

Please RSVP to Leo's daughter, Bianca, by 24th April if you would like catering provided.

Attendees are encouraged to bring their own chairs and non-alcoholic beverages.

This will be an opportunity to come together, reflect, and celebrate Leo’s life.

All are welcome to attend.

🎄 That’s a wrap for Christmas and 2025 🎄

As the year comes to a close, we want to take a moment to say thank you.

To our fantastic clients, partners, and supporters, thank you for trusting us, working alongside us, and backing what we do throughout 2025. Your support truly means the world to us and is the reason we’re able to keep doing what we love.

As we head into the Christmas break, we hope you’re able to slow down, switch off, and enjoy some well-earned time with family and loved ones. Those moments are what matter most.

From all of us at MBE, we wish you a safe, happy, and relaxing Christmas, and we can’t wait to work together again as we look ahead to an exciting and successful 2026.

Nothing here happens overnight.

Every tank. Every weld. Every system.
Built step by step, by people who know that shortcuts always show up later. 🛠️

We’ve been building bitumen sprayers in Australia for a long time.
Long enough to know that “new” doesn’t mean better.

What matters is what still works years down the track,
on real roads, in real conditions, with real operators behind the wheel.

That’s why we don’t call it 'new'.

We call it 'PROVEN'. ✅

✨ 🚛 New Truck Feels 🚛 ✨

Another build out the door and another customer over the moon.

We love the work, we love the people and we love getting these rigs out on the road . . . Even better, making the roads.

Looking sharp in white 👌💎🤍

Fresh out of the workshop, our Winged Aggregate Spreader Box looking the part and built to work just as good as it looks.

From the welds to the wiring, every detail is designed, built, and finished right here in Australia 🇦🇺. That’s what sets an MBE build apart, local trades, real craftsmanship, and gear that’s made to last.

Check out our website for more about our spreaders.

Another 10,000 L Ozibar bitumen sprayer taking shape 🇦🇺

There’s something special about seeing a build like this come together, every weld, pipe, and panel is a reflection of the skill and pride of Australian tradespeople.

At MBE, we don’t just assemble sprayers, we build them from the ground up. Every Ozibar is designed, fabricated, and finished here in Australia by the hands of people who take real pride in their craft.

That’s what sets our gear apart, quality you can see, reliability you can trust, and the satisfaction of knowing it’s Australian made from start to finish 👨🏼‍🏭👨🏼‍🔧
