Breight Group

Happy Australia Day, everyone.
Australia Day is about pride in our country and what we’ve built.

Breight Group is proudly Australian owned, Australian operated and Australian run. We believe Australia Day matters. It’s a day to stand tall and be proud of this great country, recognising the grit, hard work and determination that have helped make Australia what it is today.

Being Australian isn’t about where you’re from, it’s about having a go, pulling your weight, backing your mates and taking pride in this great southern land. In today’s modern era, Australia continues to be shaped by hard work, shared values and opportunity, and that’s something truly worth celebrating.

We’re proud to back Australia Day and celebrate what it truly means to be Australian.

At this year’s Mining Emergency Response Competition Awards Evening, attendees will have the rare opportunity to secure a truly significant piece of cultural and industry history - an exclusive large-scale artwork created for the MERC auction by acclaimed Indigenous artist Kevin Bynder.

As a proud supporter and sponsor of for 15 years, we are honoured to help celebrate this milestone through a commission that reflects the scale, importance, and enduring impact of this event within the resources sector.
This bespoke artwork will honour MERC’s legacy and will stand as a powerful visual narrative of the values that define our industry: resilience, leadership, unity, and an unwavering commitment to community safety.

Kevin’s interpretation elevates the MERC story into an inspiring, executive-level centrepiece - the kind of statement artwork that will command attention in a corporate foyer, boardroom, or executive space.

More than art, this piece represents:
- A legacy of people and partnerships
- The evolution of safety and performance
- The collective strength of our industry
- A future driven by purpose and progress

We invite the mining leaders and executives who are joining us on Sunday evening as this extraordinary artwork is unveiled and auctioned. This is a rare opportunity to secure a landmark piece that embodies the spirit of MERC — past, present, and future — and to bring a symbol of industry excellence into your organisation.

We were proud to sponsor Jordan Early’s Big Freeze DIY Slide this weekend at the Claremont Football Club in support of FightMND.

It was an honour to stand behind Jordan’s powerful mission to raise awareness and funds for Motor Neurone Disease research. His strength and determination inspire us - and events like this remind us just how important community support is in the fight to cure MND.

We were grateful to be part of such a meaningful day.
