Universal Concrete Contractors was established in 1985 by Aldo Sirianni in Mill Park in Melbourne’s northern suburbs. From humble beginnings with help from his boys, Aldo began to grow Universal, taking on larger, more challenging projects, and setting Universal Concrete on the path to becoming one of the largest and most respected civil construction organisations in Victoria.

​

Aldo’s son, Andrew, began to see opportunity beyond Universal’s core business as a civil contractor, and a more ambitious expansion program was put in place. Initially, this expansion came in the form of tilt-up factory/warehouse developments, but quickly grew to include greenfield land development. 

​

This led to the rebranding of the organisation as Universal Corporation, a diverse organisation with interests in civil contracting, concrete building construction, subdivision land development, integrated housing, commercial and office space leasing.

 

Throughout this expansion, the organisation has remained faithful to its core principles of a commitment to achieving quality, safety, innovation and customer satisfaction.
