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.
Sometimes, off-the-shelf equipment does not match what a site actually requires. From the start, your equipment's capacity, jacketing configuration, fittings layout and hygienic grade have to suit your operation. You may need to compromise on the setup or pay for modifications after delivery if these details are wrong, so it's essential to match specifications. The difference here at Barry Brown & Sons is in how our team approaches the job. Before recommending a suitable option, we work through your requirements first rather than simply providing generic equipment. Since 1970, we have been supplying Australian operations with stainless steel equipment like tanks, industrial water chillers, fittings and custom fabrication. In addition to this, we offer experience that spans a range of industries, including food, dairy, beverage, brewing, and chemical and industrial processing. We're a family-owned business based in Pakenham, and we bring more than 50 years of steady experience in Australian equipment supply and fabrication. Every item is tested against internal quality standards before leaving our facility, which means you can also rest assured that we focus on quality control. If you're interested in 'propylene glycol' or beyond, you can rest assured that our team will use high-grade materials and skilled fabricators for your order.
Barry Brown & Sons covers a wide range of equipment, including chillers, tanks and custom fabrication. From 10 litres to 100,000 litres, our tanks are available as new, refurbished or custom-built units in a variety of configurations, including various grades like food-grade 304 and 316 stainless steel. The applications for this range of equipment can include farm milk tanks and storage, as well as brewing and fermentation and chemical handling. From 7kW to 217kW, our air-cooled water and glycol chiller range covers various industrial capacities, with custom systems designed around your cooling, temperature and flow rate requirements. As one of the few Australian suppliers offering this scope under one supplier, we can also combine industrial water tanks, heat exchangers, chillers and control panels into a single coordinated system. Modifications to existing tanks are even available after assessment, and fabrication is done in-house and includes MIG and TIG, orbital and pipe welding as well as CNC machining and assembly. No matter if you're browsing for 'plate heat exchangers' and 'mono propylene glycol', our supporting products and systems also include Tri-Clover fittings, butterfly valves, sprayballs, pasteurisers & cheese vats, with options for control panels. What's more, buyers looking for a cost-effective alternative to new equipment will appreciate our refurbished stock inventory of stainless steel tanks and chillers, with each unit assessed before listing.
Whether you provide us with your specifications via phone, email or the website enquiry form on our website, we'll review the information and respond with a tailored quote. For those still finalising your requirements, we can help you work through capacity, configuration, cooling specifications and stainless grade before you place an order. Our size and specification guides are available online if you prefer to compare tank configurations and narrow down your options before getting in touch with us. If your operation is in a regional or remote area with restricted access, the team can coordinate delivery and installation accordingly. We may also work with reliable local contractors on bigger jobs that need extra hands on the ground to streamline delivery and limit downtime. Dairy operations that can't afford downtime can have their milk tank installation bundled with plumbing and electrical work, including connections to pumps, pipelines and milking systems already on site. Every order includes compatibility checks to confirm the additions or modifications can integrate with the site's existing infrastructure, giving you confidence when you're looking up 'industrial water cooling system' or 'glycol chiller price'. When you're ready to order or simply want to learn about 'Where to buy propylene glycol', 'Glycol chillers' and more, call us at (03) 5941 6111 today.
