Fabrication Services

You often need to coordinate more than one trade to get equipment operational, and the challenge may not end when the product arrives. When a supplier stops at delivery, it's generally the procurement and operations manager who deals with the installation risks. Even after securing the equipment from one source, you may still need to find someone else to sort out the integration. At Barry Brown & Sons, we can help you with these problems. We've supplied stainless steel equipment like tanks, industrial water chillers, fittings and custom fabrication to Australian operations since 1970. Through dependable gear, our business supports food, dairy, beverage, brewing, chemical and industrial processing sites. As a family-owned business based in Pakenham, we have spent over 50 years as Australian industrial equipment suppliers and fabricators. Before giving recommendations, we work through what each site requires rather than acting as a generalist supplier. Where others may simply supply equipment off the shelf, our team brings hands-on experience to sourcing, modifying and installing gear that suits the operation. That continuity gives you confidence knowing that you won't be left unsupported in your overall search for 'fabrication services' and beyond. In addition, a test against internal quality standards is applied to every item before it leaves the facility, so quality control is built into the process.

Here, our tank range includes new, refurbished and custom-built stainless steel tanks from 10 litres to 100,000 litres, supporting everything from pilot systems to large-scale industrial processing and milk silo applications. When it comes to these industrial water tanks, the available configuration options include single-skin, insulated, jacketed, dimple-jacketed, vertical and horizontal tanks across all grades of stainless steel, including food-grade 304 and 316. For dairy operations, farm milk tanks can also be built from food-grade 304 stainless steel and configured around herd size, milking frequency, milk flow rates and collection schedules. On top of this, if you're interested in equipment outside of pasteurisers & cheese vats, our tanks support fermentation and brewing. Similarly, we have a range of tanks available for food processing, such as those for sauces, ingredients and prepared foods. From initial design to the finished product, our custom fabrication services include orbital welding, pipe welding, MIG and TIG welding, as well as CNC machining and assembly. Such a personalised option can support one-off jobs as well as production requirements, while your existing equipment may be modified rather than fully replaced. Whether you've been looking up '3 inch to 2 inch stainless steel reducer', 'stainless steel pipe tee' or beyond, we can help with your unique project needs.

You can email, call or submit an enquiry form detailing what you need to get started, and instead of a generic price sheet, you'll receive a quote tailored to your specifications. When you're still working out the requirements, our team discusses various details before you order, such as tank capacity, stainless steel grade, configuration, cooling requirements and installation conditions. We also ship Australia-wide, so once the equipment is fabricated, we'll coordinate delivery for your convenience. Where large or heavy equipment is involved, we include specialist crane transport, positioning and placement on site. Where required, the same crew that handles on-site placement can also take on control panel setup, electrical work, on-site wiring and equipment integration. In dairy installations, for example, this can include connecting milk tanks to existing pumps, pipelines and milking systems. To reduce installation issues, the team assesses how each order fits with your current site infrastructure before anything ships. For remote or regional operations with limited site access, we also coordinate with trusted local contractors to handle delivery and reduce delays in the installation of large equipment. Whether you're looking up '1000l stainless steel tank' or 'food production machinery', you can turn to us for clear timelines provided during the quoting process.
