It started in Sydney in 1918. It hasn't stopped since.

    Durst Industries was founded over a century ago with a single, clear purpose: build electrical power equipment that doesn't fail. Not equipment that's good enough. Equipment that works when lives and livelihoods depend on it.

    For decades, that meant supplying some of Australia's toughest industries — mining, defence, emergency services, and aviation. Industries where downtime isn't an inconvenience. It's a crisis.That same obsession with reliability is now behind every jump starter, battery charger, and portable power system we make. The customers change. The standard doesn't.

    We don't guess. We engineer.

    Every Durst product goes through the same design process — regardless of whether it ends up in a mine or a Landcruiser. We start with the conditions it will actually face: the heat, the dust, the vibration, the misuse, the moment it needs to fire at -10°C at 2am on a dirt road in the middle of nowhere.

    • Australian-Designed Since 1918

    • Proven in Australia Toughest Environments

    • Built for the Field

    • 100+ Years of Electrical Engineering

    Proven in the mines. Trusted in the wild.

    Anyone can put a jump starter in a box. Not everyone can back it with a century of electrical engineering expertise.

    Durst's heritage in mining, defence, and emergency services means our consumer products are held to a standard that most brands in the adventure and tradie market simply don't have to meet. When you buy a Durst jump starter, you're buying the same thinking that goes into equipment trusted by Australia's hardest working industries.

    That's not a marketing claim. It's a track record.
