A Stanwell sandstone supplier has attributed its “rapid expansion” and “modernisation of factory capabilities” to a Queensland Government grants program that unveiled it was accepting a fourth round of applications on Wednesday.
Stanwell’s Capricorn Sandstone Quarries received more than $250,000 through the Made in Queensland grants program in 2019.
The funding went towards advanced splitting and veneer cutting equipment to enhance the business’ processing capabilities and product range.
The company’s chief executive officer Reece Gough said the program allowed the business to expand and modernise its factory capabilities.
“That would not have been possible without this funding support,” Mr Gough said.
