UNSW Industrial Design Students Explore Krost Manufacturing and Design Process

October 16, 2024

We recently had the pleasure of hosting industrial design students from UNSW for a factory tour at our Smithfield manufacturing facility. 

The afternoon started with a warm welcome before we guided the students through our office, warehouse and machinery.

 
 

During the tour, we provided an in-depth look at how we approach design from concept to completion. We showcased our entire design process, starting with initial ideas, followed by prototyping and testing, and finally moving into the production stage, highlighting how our machinery plays a crucial role in bringing our designs to life.

 

The students were highly engaged, asking thoughtful questions throughout the tour.

We also gave the students a firsthand look at our warehousing solutions and systems, and how these support our day-to-day operations. It was great to see their interest in how design can evolve from a concept into a fully realised product, especially through our local manufacturing processes.

 
 

We wrapped up the visit with light refreshments, which gave the students an opportunity to further interact with our team and discuss various aspects of commercial design and furniture production.

The visit was a fantastic opportunity for us to connect with the future generation of designers and to inspire them with the practical and creative aspects of our industry. We hope this experience helped spark new ideas and excitement for their future careers in design!
