Get to know Scott Powell, our Managing Director

In 1993 I was living on the Gold Coast working in the hospitality industry, which I still have a great passion for. John rang and offered me a position working with him at Technolab which he had just started.  I said I would give him 12 months and here I am, 30 years later, Managing Director and still loving what I’m doing! 

My commitment and passion to working with our clients to help them achieve the right outcomes for their projects is my driving force and I am lucky to love what I do. My focus when putting a system together is that it is easy to use and the most important consideration of all is that it is installed well.  We know that OxyGuard products are the best in the industry, so our main focus is that functionality is key to the system.

Working exclusively with teams from OxyGuard International in Denmark and Hydrotech Sweden for 30+ years has seen our business build a great network of support and trust with our suppliers.

I am incredibly proud of the small business and brand that is Technolab. 

We have built strong relationships with our industry partners Ben Pope and his team from Fresh by Design and have worked on many projects overseas with Rod Missen from RAD AQUA.  They build the big systems and we come in and work our magic to build monitoring and filtration systems that have been based on the customer’s needs for their facility.  It is great to work with other successful Australian companies who can come together and share ideas to develop new ways to assist our customers achieve their outcomes.

When I need time out you can find me spending time with my family, drinking many a good coffee from my local, on the golf course or floating down the river on my boat, fishing.
