Great to talk to, happy to help
We stock a wide range of hygienic stainless steel fittings and accessories, including Tri-Clover fittings, BSP and BSM connectors, sprayballs, butterfly valves, sample taps, tube bends, and tees for industrial and food-grade applications.
You can contact Barry Brown & Sons by phone, email, online enquiry form, or by visiting our Pakenham facility.
For the fastest response, please include details about the equipment you need, your application, preferred size or specifications, site location, and whether you require delivery, installation, or custom fabrication support.
Processing sites have specific requirements that off-the-shelf equipment may not always meet. Your operation should determine the capacity, jacketing configuration, fittings layout and hygienic grade. If there's a mismatch, you may have to compromise on performance or pay for modifications after delivery. Here's where Barry Brown & Sons can help. Since 1970, we have been supplying Australian businesses with stainless steel equipment, including stainless steel tanks, industrial water chillers, fittings and custom fabrication. Before recommending the right equipment for your site and application, we take the time to understand your requirements, drawing on more than 50 years of experience across dairy, food, beverage, brewing, chemical and industrial operations. High-grade materials and skilled fabricators are used across every order to support consistent quality control and give you more peace of mind. On top of this, every item is tested against internal quality standards before it leaves our facility. We're a family-owned business based in Pakenham, with a focus on providing ongoing support when you need it. So, whether you're searching for 'food processing and manufacturing' or 'commercial food machinery', you can trust that you'll be working with a team that continues to support you beyond the initial purchase.
Our range of stainless steel tanks includes new, refurbished and custom-built options from 10 litres to 100,000 litres, covering everything from pilot systems through to large-scale industrial processing and milk silo applications. Common uses of these tanks include dairy milk storage, fermentation and brewing, along with food processing for sauces, ingredients and prepared foods. We also supply industrial water tanks with air-cooled water and glycol chillers from 7kW to 217kW, along with custom-engineered systems tailored to your cooling capacity, temperature range and flow rate requirements. And before any refurbished stainless steel tank or chiller is listed, we assess it for structural integrity, operational suitability and compliance, so you can be confident in every unit in our extensive range. For dairy operations, our farm milk tanks are manufactured from food-grade 304 stainless steel and can be configured to suit herd size, milking frequency, milk flow rates and collection schedules. Each one also has an integrated chilled water or glycol cooling system. On top of that, our product line includes pasteurisers & cheese vats for industrial dairy processing and artisanal production, along with control panels for automation, temperature control and equipment integration as part of complete system installations. No matter if you've been looking up 'food processing and manufacturing', 'pipe union fittings' or 'male thread union', you can turn to us.
Working with one supplier from equipment supply through to installation removes the need to coordinate multiple contractors and chase separate points of responsibility when your project is underway. Delivery, electrical work, control panel setup and on-site wiring are all managed by us, keeping your project under one team from the initial order through to a completed installation. Australia-wide delivery is available as well, and for large or heavy equipment, that includes specialist crane transport with lifting, positioning and site placement managed to suit your operating conditions. Before we dispatch the equipment, we do compatibility checks to confirm it will integrate with your existing infrastructure, helping reduce the likelihood of unexpected issues during installation. For custom-built systems, lead times depend on size, configuration and fabrication scope, and we confirm realistic timelines at the quotation stage so you can plan accordingly. When you're interested in 'buy propylene glycol' or 'thermal energy storage tank', you can contact us by phone, via email or through the website enquiry form with your specifications, and we'll provide a tailored quote that reflects your application. If your search for 'pasteurisation machine' or 'industrial refrigeration' has led you here, contact Barry Brown & Sons today to discuss your requirements.
