for his clients. “When the builders or customers I work with win awards for their projects, I feel proud because I contributed to their success. My own award is repeat, happy clients.” In his view, being a trusted partner and delivering tangible results for clients is far more meaningful than plaques or trophies. Looking forward, Gabriel has ambitious plans for Extrut. By 2026 to 2028, he aims to open the company’s first foundry to recycle aluminium, potentially establishing Western Australia’s first 100 per cent recycled aluminium supply for the building industry. “Not many people do it,” he notes, referring to the prevalent practice of using partially recycled or primary aluminium. By keeping the material local, Extrut hopes to minimize environmental impact while supporting sustainable construction practices. Gabriel is open to investors or government grants to achieve this goal, reflecting a forward-thinking approach that blends entrepreneurship with environmental responsibility. Extrut’s differentiation in the market is not limited to technical capabilities or innovative projects. It is also a one-stop shop for a variety of solutions, from balustrades and fencing to doors, windows, and other architectural features. Gabriel takes pride in designing and fabricating tools and components to meet specific client requirements, bridging the gap between concept and execution. He describes this problem-solving approach as central to the company’s identity: “If you have windows that open differently or doors that need unique seals, I can design that for you. I’m always open to help you achieve your goals, because if I help you with your goals, I’ll reach mine.” This dedication to bespoke solutions, combined with an unwavering focus on client satisfaction, has earned Extrut a prominent position in the Western Australian construction industry. Whether tackling complex commercial projects, supplying innovative aluminium components, or leading sustainable initiatives for the future, Extrut stands as a testament to what can be achieved through skill, perseverance, and a customer-first philosophy.
