ABD Group is a place where
better is part of every day.
We create spaces that people
love and are designed to last.

our service, our design and
our delivery. When you build
with ABD, you’ve made the
choice to build better.

In 1998, Raffaele Aiello recognised
his passion for quality in the
construction industry and
founded Casello Constructions –
the predecessor to ABD Group.
His expanding company, together with successful projects and repeat
clients led Raffaele to commence ABD Group in February 2006.
The Group has since developed into a thriving medium to large size
builder completing in excess of 390 construction projects all
of which have had a hands-on approach by Raffaele.
Each project is valued up to $60m and includes Commercial,
Industrial, Residential and Multi-Residential projects. This level
of success in delivering large numbers of projects demonstrates
ABD Group’s ability to deliver.

05
Our commitment is simple.
We deliver quality projects
on time, within budget and
to the highest standards.
ABD Group | Built Better
Our record is proven. Since founded in 2006, ABD Group has built
upon each success to become a leading medium to large size builder
in Melbourne’s construction industry.
Our reputation speaks for itself. With an annual turnover of over $150m
and the successful delivery of well over 390 commercial, industrial,
residential and retail projects, we’re justifiably proud of our reputation.
Our relationships with employees, clients and suppliers are driven by loyalty
and transparency. We bring excitement and innovation to the design,
management and construction of every project. This passion is reflected
in our growing number of successful projects and, more importantly,
our repeat clients who know, and love, what we deliver.
07
Better building solutions.
Our success is based on our
detailed design management,
innovative construction techniques
and competitive building costs.
Raffaele is involved from concept to completion, and it’s
this hands-on approach to every project that sets us apart.
Our goal is always to ensure each project exceeds your vision and
is realised to perfection. We believe the only way to make that
happen is to provide access to our senior people – the creative,
decisive, buck-stops-here people.
ABD has the capabilities to apply green building and sustainable
building practices using design and planning processes that
are environmentally responsible and resource efficient.
ABD Group uses waste management companies that recycle
up to 85% of site material. A report is provided to ABD giving
statistics on its management performance.
The use of sustainable building materials is one of ABD Group’s
solutions to a greener environment. Some materials include
glass-fibre composites and engineered wood-laminated
beams. These materials have a low-embodied energy
resulting in a low carbon foot-print compared to current
building materials. ABD is looking into the future and has
the capabilities to differentiate itself from other builders.
We are a ‘can do’ group of people, and this can be seen in our
approach to quality, timeframe and budget. We are committed,
responsive and proud of the way we value both old-fashioned
values of honesty and reliability as well as cutting-edge building
methods and technology.

Today, the quality of our work
is evident across the Melbourne
skyline. ABD projects include
council buildings, commercial,
retail, multi-level residential
apartments and mixed-use
developments.
