The Australian Federal government has awarded Vacteck Vacuums through the AusIndustry Comet program resources and financial support to help develop the Drum Vac. Many businesses in Australia apply for Federal government support. Only a few are selected with the potential to advance their products to the level that could help launch their businesses into an international arena. Vacteck Vacuums sell their vaccums worldwide to a wide variety of businesses and organisations. The Drum Vac has proved to be a very popular and versatile product and as such the Australian government has decided to provide what support they can to get the Drum Vac to a higher level of commercial success.
