Winya is a majority Indigenous-owned and controlled Australian company specialising in the supply of high-quality commercial furniture. Established in 2015 by Kamilaroi woman Debbie Barwick and other commercial furniture industry professionals, Winya operates as a profit-for-purpose business, focusing on creating employment opportunities for Indigenous Australians through traineeships across the furniture industry. Our name, "Winya," means "Sit now" in the Wiradjuri dialect, reflecting our commitment to comfort and community

We offer a comprehensive range of commercial furniture designed to meet the diverse needs of government and corporate organisations. Our products include workstations, sit-stand desks, task and executive seating, lounges, collaborative furniture, storage solutions, boardroom tables, acoustic and screen systems, reception and joinery pieces, outdoor furniture, and various technology accessories.

Each piece is crafted with a focus on quality, sustainability, and cultural significance, ensuring they meet the highest standards while reflecting our Indigenous heritage.

While we do not facilitate direct purchases through our website, acquiring our furniture is a straightforward process! You can explore our products online and then contact our team via email or phone to discuss your specific requirements.

Our knowledgeable staff will assist you in selecting the right products and provide detailed information on customisation options, pricing, and lead times.

Once all details are finalised, we will confirm your order and coordinate the delivery and installation of your furniture, ensuring a seamless experience from start to finish.

Absolutely! We recognise that each organisation has unique needs and aesthetic preferences. Our customisation services include design modifications, material selection, Indigenous artwork integration, and ergonomic adjustments.

Our collaborative approach ensures that the final products not only meet functional requirements but also enhance the aesthetic and cultural value of your workspace.

Sustainability is central to everything we do. We incorporate recycled materials, sustainable manufacturing practices, and a locally made ethos to reduce our carbon footprint. We’ve also developed circular economy initiatives—such as take-back programs—to extend product lifecycles and minimise landfill waste. Our leadership in Economic Empowerment of Indigenous Peoples (aligned with UN SDGs 8 and 10) earned us recognition from the United Nations, reflecting our ongoing dedication to responsible production and community well-being.

Supporting Indigenous communities is at the heart of Winya's operations. Our contributions include creating employment opportunities, artistic collaborations, community engagement, and a profit-for-purpose model that reinvests profits into programs benefiting Indigenous Australians. Through these efforts, we aim to empower Indigenous communities and celebrate their rich cultural heritage.
