Dairy Equipment

Processing sites have specific requirements that off-the-shelf equipment doesn't always meet. If tank fitting layout, capacity, jacket configuration or hygienic grade don't match the application, costly modifications and avoidable downtime are likely to follow. And installation and integration of industrial equipment may fall to the procurement and operations teams after the supplier drops off the products, even though they shouldn't just be delivered to the site. Since 1970, Barry Brown & Sons has fabricated, supplied and installed stainless steel tanks, industrial water chillers, fittings and associated processing equipment across Australia. Going beyond supplying products, we're committed to creating engineering partnerships that separate us from general suppliers. Our role is to source, modify and install gear that's actually matched to your process, not to supply off-the-shelf equipment and walk away. As a family-owned, Pakenham-based operation, we have worked in the Australian industrial equipment supply and fabrication industry for over 50 years, so you can trust our experience in and knowledge of stainless steel equipment. Before it leaves our facility, each piece is tested against internal quality standards, and we only build with high-grade materials. If you're searching for 'dairy equipment' or something similar, this practical approach gives you one experienced supplier across equipment selection, fabrication, modification and installation.

At Barry Brown & Sons, we supply a wide range of stainless steel tanks, including new, refurbished and custom-built units from 10 litres to 100,000 litres. Applications range from pilot systems through to large-scale processing and milk silo installations. No matter if you need configurations like insulated, single skin, jacketed, dimple-jacketed, vertical or horizontal, we can supply them in any stainless steel grade, including food-grade 304 and 316. For dairy milk storage, we can also supply farm milk tanks, configured to match herd size, milking frequency, flow rates and collection schedules. On the other hand, we offer industrial water tanks and glycol chillers, with air-cooled units from 7kW to 217kW, along with custom-engineered systems designed around your required cooling capacity, temperature range and flow rate. As for supporting equipment, our range includes Tri-Clover fittings, BSP and BSM connectors, sprayballs, butterfly valves, sample taps, tube bends and tees, as well as pasteurisers & cheese vats. In case you're researching 'dairy processing equipment' or 'water circulation chiller' and need tailored equipment or design, you can turn to us for our custom fabrication service, from the design to the finished product. We offer CNC machining and assembly as well as orbital welding, pipe welding, and MIG and TIG welding, scaled to suit production runs or one-off projects.

To get started, call, email or submit an enquiry form with your specifications, and the team will prepare a tailored quote, not just forward a generic price list. If you're not sure about what you need yet, we're happy to talk through tank capacity, installation conditions, configuration, stainless steel grade and cooling needs before you commit. We also ship Australia-wide, so once the equipment is fabricated, we'll coordinate delivery for your convenience. Specialist crane transport, positioning and on-site placement are all included when large or heavy systems are involved. The same team handling on-site placement can also manage electrical work, control panel setup, on-site wiring and equipment integration where required. On dairy sites, for instance, this can cover integration of milk tanks with existing milking systems, pumps and pipelines. Each order's compatibility with the existing site infrastructure is reviewed before delivery to minimise installation problems. We also bring in trusted local contractors for regional and remote operations with limited site access, and they manage delivery and keep downtime low during the installation of large equipment. Whether you're looking up 'chilled water buffer tank' or 'propylene glycol', you can turn to us for clear timelines provided during the quoting process.
