Easycraft commenced in 1986 based on the need for a product that could provide an alternative to the original timber vertical joint planks used in the construction of Queensland Homes built between 1870 and 1920. Renovators wanted to keep the authentic look of the original Queenslander but use a product that would overcome the many shortcomings and inconsistencies of the timber plank. Easycraft began manufacturing (by hand) a VJ panel that was quicker and easier to install, based on a more durable substrate, had clean grooved lines and included a patented hidden joining system.

Since that humble beginning easycraft have continued to develop stylish, innovative products to meet the ever-changing market needs for homes and commercial buildings across Australia.

In 2022 easycraft was acquired by Australian Panels, another proud, privately owned Australian business, that has invested in additional capacity and technology to ensure that these quality Australian Made products remain fashionable and readily available throughout the nation.

The current range of products still provide for the renovation of historical buildings but also include products that are applicable to today’s design and construction requirements. Products that are versatile, being suited to a wide variety of applications, including commercial, hospitality, government, retail and residential.
