ABOUT US


LORICCO ENGINEERING PTY LTD & EAST END STEEL is a family owned and locally operated company based in Colac, Victoria by Travis and Chrissy LoRicco.

LoRicco Engineering prides itself on our reputation, known for our industry experience, our knowledge and skills, our quality services, exceptional efficiency and the highest level of professionalism whilst delivering exceptional results. No matter what service you’re looking for, we pride ourselves on meeting our clients project requirements and guarantee to not only meet, but exceed your expectations and ensure your full satisfaction with every job.

AR & MA LoRicco Engineering was first established in 1987 by Tony and Margaret LoRicco from humble beginnings as a small general engineering and welding workshop with a commitment to providing quality steel fabrications and welding services, specialising in kit garages, small repairs, bull bars, tow bars and BBQ's.

The business has since seen many changes. In 2000 as part of a diversification plan, our new retail brand East End Steel was introduced. Our mission was to establish a new business that complimented our existing welding and fabrication business and provided our customers with the convenience of a one stop shop for fairer steel sales, welding products, supplies and consumables in Colac. We further enhanced our ability to meet our customer needs by becoming part of the BOC network and becoming agents for Dynaweld. This has allowed us to expand our product range and supply the Colac district with a wide range of welding equipment, supplies and accessories. Together with our knowledge and industry experience this has provided us with a unique and extremely valuable combination of services to our customers.

In 2013 the fabrication and welding business continued to grow and evolved into a company. Since our humble beginnings, LORICCO ENGINEERING PTY LTD has continued to build a strong and proud reputation, recognised as innovative, forward thinking industry leaders.

In a natural progression, Tony and Margaret LoRicco retired at the beginning of 2019 with their eldest son Travis and wife Chrissy LoRicco purchasing the business and taking over as owners and operators. Travis and Chrissy have continued to build our existing customer base and expand the family business by investing in new modern machinery and equipment as well as constructing a large modern office space and showroom for our customers, displaying our retail stock of welders, welding helmets and welding consumables.
