About Cobra

We’re Cobra Industries, a team of 4×4 enthusiasts revolutionising how you use your ute.
The Cobra Industries Story
The Cobra Industries story is one of passion and innovation.
It started back in 1988 our founder Craig Hyde opened Cobra Manufacturing. We spent 1990 and the early 2000s inventing and manufacturing innovative products that we sold around the world. One being a two tier push bike parking rack that not only looks futuristic, but met the high expectations of a demanding world. As well as specialised mechanical engineering equipment in the compressed air industry.
Cobra Industrial Design
In 2018, we rebranded our business to Cobra Industrial Design, to reflect our expertise and especially our passion for providing these metal design solutions in manufacturing.
The entire team at Cobra Industrial Design was 4×4 obsessed and our work utes are everything to us. But, whenever we picked up a new tray or canopy, they lacked the thoughtful, considered design they needed.
We decided to start a new division of the company, Cobra Industries, where we’d sell 4×4 ute trays, canopies and accessories.
The Cobra Technique
We established the Cobra Technique. A way of creating these products, ensuring they’re built to last without those consistent flaws we’d found throughout competitor models.
We realised that while much of what we wanted to change in these designs was universal in the team, our needs and what we used our utes for weren’t.
- So, we created a modular design, so anyone that owns a ute can make a Cobra Industries product theirs.
