<h2 class="tile-title">About Hoobler Stone</h2>
Hoobler Stone originated in California in the 1940s when Ken Hoobler developed his method of producing natural looking cast stone. Exclusive licensing rights for the manufacture and distribution of Hoobler Stone in Australia were purchased in the 1970s.

Eric Liegel brought the business to Australia under license with great success. He built it up over 30 years working on some of Victoria’s iconic buildings.

In 2004, John and Deb Duckworth bought the business when Eric reluctantly retired due to old age. They moved the manufacturing plant to Geelong, where it still is today. In 2019, Jye Duckworth, John and Deb’s son took over the business, so all Hoobler Stone craftsmanship and skills remain well and truly in the Duckworth family.
