It All Started With a Saw

Spida Machinery was founded in New Zealand in 1978 from humble beginnings, and began with a ‘saw’as the first piece of machinery. This saw was introduced into America.  Now in its 10th generation, the saw achieves low angles and long cuts and is still to this day one of our most popular products. This was just the beginning of Spida Machinery’s presence in America.

Demand Grew for Machinery

The demand in America grew with more companies wanting to get their hands on robust, high quality, efficient machines that would enable them to be more productive.  Our machines began being used in different parts of America and were achieving great results.

Our products in America are designed for the parameters of the local market, including software that can read a multitude of files specific to all markets.  And our machinery and equipment is suitable for all your cutting, measuring, wall frame assembly, roof and floor truss assembly and material handing needs.  

We Joined Multinail

In 2014, Spida Machinery was purchased along with one of our competitors Mango Tech, by our parent company Multinail Australia. We became part of the Multinail group of companies, which have their own proud history in the prefabrication industry. The combination of the three companies further strengthened the knowledge base along with the product range.

We continue to innovate, develop and build quality machinery. Collectively Spida and Multinail personnel travel the world to find the best technology to inform our design engineers.

Partnership & Acquisiton of Square 1

For a number of years we worked with Square 1, a leading structural building components provider in America, to bring our machinery to the US market. In 2017 Square 1 became an agent for Spida Machinery and a solid relationship was born.  After enjoying a successful relationship, a couple of years later in 2019, Spida Machinery acquired Square1.  Given their reputation in the market, this now meant we could offer one of the most compelling mixes of machinery, software and service ever seen in America. It also meant we have generations of experience and supply standing behind our machinery.

Growing Product Range & Team

As our jouney in America progressed, so did our product offering.   Our products were tailored to the American market. Customers were wanting to experience the benefits our machinery provides such as increased productivity and lower manufacturing costs.  The range of our automated equipment has contined to grow, where today we have over 70 products in our product range around the globe.

Our team are handpicked for their extensive knowledge and capabilities and we have over 120 personnel working in America, New Zealand and Australia. While we’re backed by a global team, we pride ourselves on providing local, responsive service throughout America. We’re growing the team in America across all areas of the business, including in support where our service technicians are committed to forming real partnerships with customers and responding to any queries quickly and efficiently.
