Default Drivetech part - who makes them?

Coming across quite a few aftermarket parts made by Drivetech. They seem to be decently priced, but I can't find any info which confirms where their stuff is made.

I've only ever used their Power Steering Switch, which didn't last very long, but not sure whether that was due to the power steering hose being on its way out.

Anyhow, has anyone had experiences with Drivetech parts? and / or know where they are made? Whats the reliability like?

Brisbane company.
started around 20 years ago as a small Brisbane business focused on hard parts has now become one of Australia’s fastest growing 4×4 brands.
Own branded sourced products from many sources, never used them or hear of them much tbh.
