Development of Stella over the past 20 years

Stella was born from an ideal that the Australian Marine Industry should have access to the same quality, service and products as our counterparts around the world. The vision was to establish an engineering company that would not only provide bespoke engineering services but also bring access to some of the world brands which were not yet available in Australia.



Stella Systems was formed to address an opportunity in the market, and to deliver focused attention and support for our growing number of high quality OEM products and suppliers. In addition, Stella Systems concentrated our drive to achieve our overall manufacturing, importing and distribution goals.


Stella proudly initiates in-house manufacturing of Stella Watermakers, showcasing our commitment to quality control, innovation, and self reliance in providing sustainable water solutions for marine and land based applications.

We personally worked on Fleet Hydrol’s Swim Platforms several times throughout 2015 to 2018 and immediately believed them to be second to none. When the opportunity arose to purchase Fleet Hydrol’s IP and keep the designs alive, we did just that.

Stella achieves a significant milestone by merging its subsidiaries, Stella Marine and Stella Systems, consolidating expertise and resources to streamline operations and better serve our customers to provide comprehensive solutions.
