INTRODUCTION
 
Open Road Industries began in the early 1970's in a 2878 sq metre factory. In 1989 the company moved to a large factory in the Sydney suburb of Botany. With its growing profile Open Road Industries was approached by the Police, Defence and Government Departments to develop and submit helmets and other safety equipment to their specifications.
