OUR STORY
A New Chapter with RME
Masterblasters has been delivering high-quality blasting and protective coating services since 2006, when Tim and Liz Hamblin founded the business right here in Toowoomba. Over the years, they built a strong reputation for reliable turnaround, consistent results, and a team that knows how to work with tough conditions across mining, oil and gas, utilities, agriculture, transport, construction, and manufacturing. Their leadership shaped a culture focused on doing things properly—quality work, clear communication, and keeping projects on track.
Now, Masterblasters is proud to be joining RUSSELL MINERAL EQUIPMENT (RME), a long-time partner and global leader in mill relining technologies. While Tim and Liz have stepped away from the business, all other roles have been retained, and the same experienced team remains in place. With RME’s backing, we’re strengthening our capabilities and continuing to deliver the dependable service and high standards our clients rely on. It’s the same Masterblasters you know—now with even more support behind us.
