We are client focused and strive to build relationships on a foundation of trust by observing the highest ethical principles. To this end we undertake to be transparent, open and honest in our dealings with our clients.

Canstruct has a proud history of over 40 years in operation in various guises.  Founded by Robin Murphy, an innovative civil engineer in 1968, the company has completed a huge array of construction work from bridges, to tunnels, roads to buildings across Australia. 

Robin’s son Dan Murphy is the CEO of Canstruct.  The company has never been in a better financial position, as Dan explains “Canstruct is super busy at present with work in PNG, Christmas Island, Aurukun, WA and Brisbane.  We look set to have the biggest year ever with a turnover of over $55 million to date.”

Canstruct have developed a reputation for success in operating in demanding and remote locations and are known for their down to earth can do people.

Canstruct is closely associated with Force 10, an engineered modular building system that specialises in cyclone, earthquake, and fire resistant housing.  Canstruct and Force 10 share office and factory buildings in Brisbane and have recently purchased a new considerably larger property at Crestmead which they will be relocating to when the site has been further developed.
