About the AMRF

The AMRF Co. is a private subsidiary corporation owned by the Bradfield Development Authority.

Bradfield Development Authority is building a stronger future for Western Sydney by delivering Bradfield City and attracting investment to the Western Sydney Aerotropolis. 

AMRF gives manufacturers a competitive edge; through access to the right place, talent, projects and partnerships to accelerate growth and de-risk investment.

Make smarter investment decisions

Test and validate your manufacturing processes using industrial-grade equipment; before committing capital. Build the business case with evidence, not assumption.

Reduce risk before you scale

Move from concept to manufacturable product in a controlled environment. Identify failure modes, refine processes and prove viability before production investment is locked in.

Get to market faster

Work alongside engineers and specialists with real industrial experience. Access expertise you couldn’t justify building in-house, upskill your team, and compress the time to viable manufacturing outcomes. 

Keep your options open

Use AMRF as a structured decision point and trusted partners before irreversible commitments. Explore, validate and pivot - so investment and funding follows confidence, not speculation.

Access capability beyond your scale

Tap into advanced manufacturing methods, technologies and networks that would be difficult or costly to access alone. Build visibility within Australia’s advanced manufacturing ecosystem and support your long-term growth and competitiveness.

Tap into a trusted industry network

Get referred to the right partners, suppliers and specialists across Australia’s and the local manufacturing ecosystem - opening doors that would otherwise take time and energy.

Collaborate without compromise

As a government-backed, industry-agnostic organisation, AMRF enables organisations to collaborate without commercial conflicts - and retain full ownership of their intellectual property.

• A mass-production facility or contract manufacturer
• A provider of foundational research, early-stage discovery, or product design
• A profit-maximising enterprise or grant-giving body
• A substitute for accredited degrees

The Advanced Manufacturing Readiness Facility (AMRF) at Bradfield is where industry and researchers access the equipment, expertise, and collaboration needed to accelerate advanced manufacturing in Australia.

Manufacturing Hall (operational)

The Manufacturing Hall is a live industrial environment that helps businesses de-risk and scale up new ideas. With over $200 million invested in infrastructure, equipment, and staff, the facility provides access to world-class engineers and advanced technologies. 

Take an interactive virtual tour of the AMRF’s Manufacturing Hall.

Capabilities include:

• Additive manufacturing
• Advanced composites
• Design & analysis
• Materials testing
• Metrology and inspection
• Precision machining

AMRF will be expanding its capability portfolio to also include Factory Digitalisation, Automation and Quality Assurance in the near future.

Status: Planned

Building 2 is a future AMRF building currently in planning with construction planned to commence in late 2026. The brand new building will include a new manufacturing hall, along with clean rooms and other specialist spaces. Further detail on fit out and use will be confirmed as planning progresses.

Semiconductor opportunity

Semiconductor technologies are currently the key opportunity being progressed within Building 2, with an initial focus on advanced semiconductor packaging. The AMRF will help to establish a national capability in this emerging technology by collaborating with leading international and local partners. This will support local industry and research to develop and manufacture cutting edge semiconductor devices in NSW in critical sectors such as aerospace, renewables, medtech, quantum, defence, and telecommunications.

The advanced packaging facility is one component of Building 2. The building has been designed with flexibility to accommodate additional manufacturing or technology activities, as future opportunities are identified.
