Yes. All tanks are engineered-to-order, with extensive customisation options including fittings, insulation, integrated pipework, agitators, valves, sensors, and heating or cooling jackets.
Chiller sizing depends on your total heat load, including tank volume, product temperature, ambient conditions, and process heat inputs. To ensure stable temperature control and energy efficiency, Barry Brown assesses your full process requirements rather than relying on generic rules of thumb.
Water chillers are suitable for cooling applications above 7ºC, while glycol chillers use a water-glycol mixture to prevent freezing in low-temperature systems and provide greater temperature stability.
Yes. Barry Brown manages full installation, setup, and commissioning, ensuring minimal disruption to existing operations.
Yes, including stainless steel tank fittings, weld-on fittings, and bulkhead fittings.
Yes, we integrate accessories into the tank design for seamless operation.
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.
Sometimes, off-the-shelf equipment does not match what a site actually requires. Your gear must have the right capacity, jacketing configuration, fittings layout and hygienic grade to suit your operation from the start. Specification matching becomes important since incorrect details may require you to compromise on the setup or pay for modifications after delivery. At Barry Brown & Sons, we stand out with the way our team approaches the job. Rather than simply providing you with generic equipment, we work through your requirements first before recommending a suitable option. Since 1970, we have been supplying Australian operations with stainless steel equipment like tanks, industrial water chillers, fittings and custom fabrication. On top of this, we have experience working across a range of sectors, from food, dairy, beverage and brewing to chemical and industrial processing. We bring more than 50 years of continuous experience in Australian equipment supply and fabrication as a family-owned business based in Pakenham. Our focus on quality control also means that you can have confidence that every item is tested against internal quality standards before leaving our facility. If you're interested in 'small water chiller' or beyond, you can rest assured that our team will use high-grade materials and skilled fabricators for your order.
From compact 10-litre units through to 100,000-litre systems, we supply new, refurbished and custom-built stainless steel tanks for pilot systems, industrial processing lines and milk silo applications. This range includes single skin, insulated, jacketed, dimple-jacketed, vertical and horizontal configurations, spanning all stainless steel grades such as food-grade 304 and 316. These industrial water tanks can support applications in fermentation and brewing as well as chemical and corrosive environments. Along with this, we have options with dairy milk storage capabilities. For those who are interested in farm milk tanks, these options can be configured to align with herd size, milking frequency, milk flow rates and collection schedules, including chilled water and glycol cooling systems. For this type of processing, we also have pasteurisers & cheese vats available for supply and installation in both industrial operations and artisanal production. Control panels for automation, temperature control and equipment integration can be supplied. We can also support process tank systems through fittings and accessories like Tri-Clover fittings, sample taps, tube bends, BSP and BSM connectors and tees. Instead of getting general hardware, you can get specific components supplied here as part of a wider setup, whether you're curious about 'water to water chiller' or 'glycol manifold'.
You can reach us by phone, email or website enquiry with your site and equipment details to begin the process. A tailored quote is prepared after our team has reviewed details like capacity, configuration, stainless steel grade, cooling specification and current infrastructure. For buyers who aren't fully certain about their requirements, our online size and specification guides support early comparison, and you can also work through these variables with us before placing an order. Following confirmation of the details, our team can arrange for delivery throughout Australia, including lifting, positioning and site placement for large equipment, as well as specialist crane transport. From electrical work and control panel setup to on-site wiring and system integration, you work with just one team from supply to commissioning, giving you one point of contact. We can extend the scope to plumbing and electrical connections into existing pipelines, pumps and milking systems for dairy installations. Whether you're researching 'chiller unit' or 'thermal energy storage tank', we check equipment compatibility against your existing site setup before dispatching orders for delivery. Tank size, configuration and project complexity all affect custom lead times, which are verified during the quoting process. If you've been searching for 'Buy industrial chiller' or 'Milk pasteuriser for sale Australia' hoping to get a solution, contact Barry Brown & Sons to discuss your requirements today.
