Kelmatt is a family business owned and operated by brothers Tim and Simon Fletcher.
Having grown up enjoying camping and the outdoors, they spent years making bags and gear for themselves and their mates. It made sense for Kelmatt to develop a range of camping gear to complement the wide range of industrial textiles products they’d been manufacturing for decades.
A passion for the outdoors and dedication to creating high-quality products, combined with Kelmatt’s talented team of designers and fabricators, cutting-edge equipment, and heavy-duty materials, made it a perfect fit.
Thus, Kelmatt Outdoor Gear was born.
Having both spent much time in the US and Canada, Tim and Simon are well aware of the shared love for outdoor lifestyle in the US and Canada. We are proud to offer our great quality outdoor gear to our North American friends, to help them enjoy their outdoor adventures.
A History of Quality Products
With five decades of manufacturing experience, producing a wide range of industrial textile products for the sport and recreation, education, government, defense, construction, entertainment, and transport sectors, Kelmatt was able to hit the ground running with an innovative range of products for outdoor enthusiasts. Operating in Melbourne, Australia since its inception in 1976, Kelmatt is proud to be manufacturing goods in Australia.
Kelmatt’s fantastic, hard-working team bring skill and dedication to their craft. Investing in people, skills, and equipment to support Australian manufacturing is integral to Kelmatt’s long term growth and success.
