Astris PME, one of Australia’s leading providers of scripted Assistive Technology (AT), is proud to announce its expansion into Tasmania with the opening of two new branches in Launceston and Hobart. This strategic move marks the company’s first physical presence in the state and reinforces our commitment to supporting clients, families, and therapists right across the Apple Isle.
To celebrate, we’re inviting you to come experience what’s possible at our Open Day in Kings Meadows on Thursday 14 August. Whether you’re a client, therapist, or curious community member, this is your opportunity to explore our brand-new showroom, meet our local team, and see the latest in Assistive Technology firsthand.
Our decision to open branches in Tasmania is a direct response to increasing demand for personalised, locally available Assistive Technology. Clients and therapists have told us they want more support, more trial opportunities, and a partner who truly understands complex equipment needs - so that’s exactly what we’re here to deliver.
The new branches feature fully equipped showrooms and are backed by a statewide mobile service offering free equipment trials wherever they’re needed.
As a trusted national distributor of top global brands - including Rifton, Leckey, Permobil, Sunrise Medical, Jenx, Motion Composites, and Magic Mobility - Astris PME provides a comprehensive lineup of products that support 24-hour positioning and long-term outcomes. Our specialised range includes:
Our AT Consultants are trained mechanics, not therapists. This ensures a collaborative model where equipment is trialled and adjusted in partnership with each client’s healthcare team. We also offer free back-to-base servicing for life on all equipment supplied prior to 30 June 2026.
To mark the launch of our new Launceston branch, we’d love to welcome you to a relaxed and interactive Open Day event. Drop in any time during the day - there’s no pressure and no need to book.

Why You Shouldn’t Miss This:
Whether you come for the coffee or the connection, we promise you’ll leave inspired by what’s possible.
Astris PME does not supply general rehabilitation or aged care equipment such as beds, walkers, or shower chairs. Instead, we focus exclusively on highly customised, scripted AT for people with complex and long-term needs.
Through a strategic partnership with Alpha Lifecare, we ensure clients across Tasmania have access to both general and specialised AT — with each provider focusing on their area of expertise.
Leading our Tasmanian operations is Josh Arnott, State Manager and a familiar face to many therapists across Australia. With over 12 years of experience in the AT space, Josh brings both technical knowledge and a deep commitment to improving client outcomes.
We’re also actively recruiting AT Consultants, Product Technicians, and Customer Support staff in both Launceston and Hobart. If you’re passionate about making a difference through technology and care, we’d love to hear from you.
Come visit us at the Open Day or reach out to arrange a trial - we’re here to help you and your clients take the next step forward.
