The Beginnings

Flat Out started with a classic Motorhome problem and a clever Aussie solution. When Peter and Lenie Van Mill couldn’t find a tidy, reliable way to store their hoses and leads, they didn’t complain (for long)—they designed a new solution. The Flat Out Multi-Reel was born in 2001 and quickly became a trusted companion for countless travellers, tradies, and tidy freaks (you know who you are).

Their invention, proudly Australian-made, set the tone for everything that followed: gear that works, lasts, saves you time, and packs away like a dream.
