About

Concrete Republic is owned and operated by two Geelong locals, Luke Reddie and Blake Robertson. Creating concrete masterpieces since 2016.

Our Story

Concrete Republic is owned and operated by two Geelong locals, Luke Reddie and Blake Robertson. Getting off the ground in 2016, Luke began creating furniture masterpieces from his back shed.

Having more than 14 years’ experience using concrete, he was familiar with the medium and became excited by its potential. Experimenting with glass fibre reinforced concrete (GFRC) and receiving rave reviews for his concrete benchtops, vanities and various pieces, Concrete Republic was born.

By 2017 Blake had joined the team and brought with him extensive business expertise and drive. Having built a successful access flooring company, Blake found himself looking for a fresh project with a creative outlet and was impressed by concrete and its vast uses.

Together the two men are a dynamic duo with a united goal, delivering custom furniture.

Why Concrete?

Due to its longevity, since 1824 concrete has been predominantly used for practical purposes only. However due to its raw natural beauty, this bold material possesses a starkness and edge to it and for that reason has become increasingly popular in homes, cafes, bars, restaurants and offices.

With a few tweaks to the traditional mix, a new and improved concrete (GFRC) has been designed that can be shaped into a range of designs without losing its natural look and individual appeal, and giving it high strength and lighter property, perfect for custom furniture and handmade tiles.

Luke – Director
The Heart behind Concrete Republic

Luke created Concrete Republic in his small back shed in 2016, driven by a simple idea – to create concrete products that weren’t just functional, but beautiful and built to last.

From the very beginning, Luke’s hands-on approach set the tone with every product that left the workshop reflecting his high standards and dedication to getting the details right.

The business today reflects Luke’s personality: honest, hardworking, and built with intention. If there’s one thing Concrete Republic stands for, it’s that level of care and craftsmanship that Luke’s carried from day one.

Blake – Production Manager
Builder, Leader, and All-Round Problem Solver

Blake joined Luke in 2017. With years of experience already under his belt from running a successful flooring company, Blake’s brought a wealth of knowledge in construction, materials, and business operations—a combination that made an immediate impact.

Blake plays a key role in overseeing our workshop and day-to-day operations, working closely with Luke to ensure every product meets our exacting standards. Whether it’s managing the team, problem-solving on the floor, or refining systems behind the scenes, Blake’s steady presence keeps things running smoothly.

His calm, can-do attitude and deep understanding of both the product and the people, make him a vital part of what we do. With Blake on the tools and behind the scenes, you can trust that everything coming out of Concrete Republic is built with care, precision, and pride.

Harrison – Maker
Passionate Craftsman, Trained by the Best

Harrison was trained directly by Luke, learning the ins and outs of the craft from the founder himself. Under Luke’s guidance, Harrison developed not just the skills to work with concrete, but a true appreciation for the level of care and detail that defines everything we do at Concrete Republic.

Over time, he’s become the beating heart of the workshop—someone who doesn’t just make concrete pieces, but pours genuine passion into every form, finish, and detail. His eye for quality, combined with a natural talent for the craft, makes his work stand out time and time again.

Harrison’s dedication is clear in every product he touches. He’s deeply invested in what we create and takes immense pride in producing pieces that are not only functional, but beautiful. His work reflects the high standards Luke set from day one—and his passion continues to raise the bar.

When you see a Concrete Republic piece with a flawless finish and thoughtful design, chances are Harrison had a hand in it.

Kathryn – Maker

Kat joined Concrete Republic with a strong desire to learn the craft of concrete—and she’s been making her mark ever since. With a natural love for creating and a keen eye for design, she quickly took to the material, bringing fresh energy and curiosity to the workshop.

From day one, Kat has shown a genuine passion for what we do. Her enthusiasm and dedication is infectious, and her creative mindset brings a unique perspective to the team.
