It seems almost counterintuitive to go back to print – after all, wasn’t the obituary for print media written a decade ago? Hold that thought.
With more than 30 years in the market, Facility Management has long served as a trusted and informative source for Australia’s FM community.
After publishing a regular print edition until a few years ago, FM Media’s parent company, Niche Media, decided to pursue an all-digital future for the brand and has since built a sizable presence across its digital platforms.
That includes this website, which receives tens of thousands of visitors annually, a social media presence with more than 10,000 followers combined across several channels and a weekly newsletter that reaches several thousand subscribers, boasting an above-industry-average open rate of nearly 50 percent.
The digital revolution at FM Media has, objectively, been a success story. But as FM Media operates in a space where its legacy in the industry is unparalleled and still does not have major competition, it has led to some of our partners calling for a return to print.
We answered that with a special print edition that coincided with World FM Day in May earlier this year (view the magazine here). The response to it was overwhelming from our readers, industry stakeholders and advertisers.
It has resulted in us deciding to return to print with a quarterly title, with the next edition slated for October.
Coming up: FM Media Magazine, October 2025 – Sustainability in FM
As pressure mounts to reduce carbon footprints and meet ESG targets, sustainability is no longer a check-box item for facility managers, but rather it’s a strategic imperative.
From energy-efficient buildings and circular waste systems to green cleaning practices and data-driven optimisation, the path to more sustainable operations is full of opportunities.
The upcoming issue will be an essential read offering insights, strategies and perspectives that underscore why sustainability is not the future of facilities management, but its present priority.
Expect to read an abundance of content around focus sectors, including building and property management, security and access control, software and technology solutions, energy, waste and water management, construction and engineering, cleaning and maintenance, health and safety and HVAC, among others.
If you are a facility manager, procurement officer, project specialist, security head, operations controller or sustainability consultant, this edition is for you.
This magazine will be available in print and digital formats and will reach a combined readership of 50,000.
The print copies of the magazine are distributed to facilities management professionals of iconic venues, public spaces and FM-related organisations, advertisers and contributors.
It’s an exciting time to be a part of the FM industry. We want to make sure you are well ahead of the curve with our print editions. Stay tuned for more.
