How It All Began

A Gap in the Market.
A Business Built to Fill It.

In 2003, Les Lyons - a serial entrepreneur with a background in mining - identified something others had overlooked: the Asia-Pacific region was significantly under-served when it came to quality Windsocks and wind direction equipment.

Starting out in weather-related measuring equipment, Les quickly zeroed in on the real opportunity: supplying complete, ready-to-install Windsock assemblies - everything a client needs to get up and running, engineered and sourced from a single trusted supplier.

What began in Perth would grow into the region's most recognised name in Windsock manufacturing.

What Sets Us Apart

Built Different, By Design

From day one, Windsocks Australia was established to be different - and those founding principles have never changed.

Australian Made

No drop-shipping. No low-quality imports. Every product is manufactured in Australia, keeping jobs and investment here at home.

Quality Products & Engineered Solutions

Whether you need a high-quality standard Windsock or a fully engineered solution for a complex site, we have the expertise to deliver - matched to your compliance requirements and operating conditions.

Safety & Compliance First

compliant with CASA and Australian Standards, and built to last. When pilots, workers, and emergency crews depend on accurate wind data, there's simply no room for compromise.

A New Chapter

The Second Generation Raises the Bar

Today, Windsocks Australia is led by Stephen Lyons, who brings deep hands-on experience in oil, gas and mining to the business - industries where getting it right isn't optional.

Under Stephen's leadership, Windsocks Australia has expanded significantly - serving blue-chip energy companies, mining operations, aviation authorities, government departments, and defence clients across Australia and the wider Asia-Pacific.

The founding principles remain: quality you can stake your safety on, made right here in Australia.
