Pricing
The fully automated production and quality control capability with resultant minimum employees at FCA supplier factories, makes our pricing the most competitive in Australia. FCA 19mm TG is at least 30% and more below most other majors in CFC. Most of which do not have AS1530.4 -2014 capability or NATA tested to BCA standards in fire and none have the very Eco Green low 5% net CO2 pollutive level of FCA, as they are all cement based.

The Australian Government is expected to soon enforce serious compliance conditions for unsuitable non-compliant high pollutive CO₂ materials, as we progress toward the 2030 and 2035 TO 2050 Accords.
