How STM works in New Zealand
Supply only. Straight answers. Freight sorted before you commit.
STM Studio Supplies closed its New Zealand warehouse and no longer installs in NZ. What has not changed is the range and the advice. New Zealand orders are handled by the same Sydney team that fits out studios, schools and theatres across Australia, and every enquiry is answered by a person who has installed the product.
Because everything crosses the Tasman, we price freight properly. Small orders go by courier or air. Long and heavy items such as vinyl rolls and barre stanchions can go by seafreight, which is usually the cheaper option when time allows. Tell us about site access and we will quote the right way first time.
What we ship to NZ
- Wall-fixed, floor-fixed and mirror-wall barre brackets and stanchions
- Portable Beau Barre frames (source timber locally to save freight)
- Mylar glassless mirrors: wall-hung, rollaway and demonstration
- Dance floor vinyl by the roll, plus offcuts for home practice
- DIY sprung floor components: pads, template, cutter, tapes
- Floor cleaners, grip treatment, mirror cleaner and tapes
What we no longer supply in NZ
- Installation of any kind
- Glass mirrors and glass rollaway mirrors (we will brief your local glazier)
- Long hardwood timber barres, as freight is uneconomic; brackets ship and timber is sourced locally

Dance & Pilates barres

- We price product and freightYou get product options with guide pricing in Australian dollars and a freight choice: courier, air, or seafreight for bulky orders.
- Confirm and payStock items are paid in full before dispatch. Made-to-order items take a 60% deposit with the balance before shipping.

Why STM
Products developed in response to need, not bought off a catalogue.
STM Studio Supplies was established in 2003 as the performing arts division of the Monart Group, a Sydney company that has served film, television and live entertainment since 1980. The DIY sprung floor, the mirror wall bracket system and the Pilates stanchion range all came from problems studios brought to us.
STM designs and manufactures many of the products it sells, and has supplied dance studios, public and private schools, universities and builders across Australia, New Zealand and the Asia Pacific. New Zealand has a particular place in the company: director Martin O’Neill was born there.

Quick answers
Shipping to New Zealand, in short.
Does STM Studio Supplies still ship to New Zealand?
Yes. STM no longer has a warehouse or installation crew in New Zealand, but it supplies New Zealand customers directly from its Sydney head office. Barre brackets, floor-fixed stanchions, portable barre frames, Mylar glassless mirrors, dance floor vinyl, DIY sprung floor components, floor cleaners and tapes are all shipped to NZ.
Does STM install in New Zealand?
No. STM is supply only in New Zealand. Every product ships with installation guidance, and the Sydney team answers installation questions by phone and email. For glass mirrors, STM can advise a local glazier of your choice on best practice for a studio environment.
How is freight to New Zealand handled?
Small items travel by courier or air freight. Long or heavy items such as dance vinyl rolls, stanchions and mirror panels can be quoted by seafreight, which is usually the most economical option. The quote form asks whether a forklift is available at the delivery address and whether you would like a seafreight quote, so we can price the right option first time.
