Industrial Fittings Sales Pty Ltd
Introduction

Founded in 1989, Industrial Fittings Sales Pty Ltd (IFS) is a leading Australian manufacturer and wholesaler specializing in brass industrial tube and pipe fittings. With an extensive product range including hose and tube fittings, clamps, pressure gauges, and much more. Committed to quality, Australian manufacturing, and continuous improvement, IFS maintains a strong national presence with multiple facilities across the country. Notably, in 2017, partial ownership was transferred to dedicated staff members, emphasising IFS customer-centric approach. IFS stands as a symbol of Australian manufacturing excellence, unwaveringly dedicated to delivering high-quality solutions.

Industrial Fittings initially had catalogue-only website until 2017. In 2017, Industrial Fittings strategically redefined its business approach to facilitate online customer orders and attract new clientele. This comprehensive strategy involved optimising the website for user-friendliness and mobile responsiveness, key factors in enhancing online visibility.

The foremost challenge that emerged for Industrial Fittings was managing their extensive product range. With an extensive inventory exceeding 25,000 items, Industrial Fittings boasted an intricate array of products, each encompassing unique shapes and sizes. This intricacy presented a notable SEO challenge in effectively showcasing this diverse range to search engines.

A secondary significant challenge centered around efficiently categorizing this vast product portfolio for the website. The primary goal was to ensure streamlined product discovery for customers, a pivotal aspect of retaining visitor engagement and positively impacting SEO ranking.

The third noteworthy hurdle involved steering customer behavior towards online orders. This entailed training internal staff to redirect customers from traditional communication channels, like phone calls and emails, towards utilizing the website for their purchases. This not only facilitated a shift towards online sales but also boosted the website's authority in search engine algorithms.
