ACFA represent members from the furnishing, cabinetmaking, kitchen and joinery industries. The association speaks as a united voice on your behalf to the community, consumers and all levels of Government to ensure your best interests are at the forefront of decisions being made across Australian Standards, licensing structure, insurance and regulation.
ACFA will look after you by providing support for HR and Workplace advice, business improvement solutions, access to compliant documents, policies and procedures and access to the most up-to-the-minute industry news.

ACFA’s mandate is to
- PROTECT the interests of members

- PROVIDE Support services to members
This is an exciting development that will positively impact the professionalism of the industry and the industry’s ability to advocate, present a positive outlook to consumers and speak as a single voice on issues that affect the industry. The merger will create prosperous future for members and the industry.
