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.
What a processing site actually requires and what comes off the shelf don't always match. An operation risks expensive modifications and unnecessary downtime when there are mismatches with the jacket configuration, fitting layout, tank capacity or hygienic grade you chose for the application. Plus, industrial equipment shouldn't just arrive on site, but many procurement and operations teams end up managing installation and integration themselves after a supplier delivers the products. Across Australia, Barry Brown & Sons has fabricated, supplied and installed industrial water chillers, stainless steel tanks, fittings and associated processing equipment since 1970. We're not a general supplier, and instead, we operate as an engineering partner that goes beyond supplying products. Rather than shipping off-the-shelf systems and moving on, we source, modify and install what your operation actually needs. 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. Our team uses high-grade materials and tests each item against internal quality standards before it leaves the facility. If you're searching for 'stainless steel union' 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. Our range covers large processing tanks and milk silo units to pilot systems. 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 'glycol and water mixture' or 'ss316 union' and need tailored equipment or design, you can turn to us for our custom fabrication service, from the design to the finished product. Our team can provide orbital welding, pipe welding, MIG and TIG welding, CNC machining and assembly, whether it's a one-off job or a production line.
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. When you're still working out the requirements, our team discusses various details before you order, such as capacity, stainless steel grade, configuration, cooling and installation conditions. Australia-wide shipping is also available, and we'll handle delivery logistics for your convenience once your equipment is ready. Specialist crane transport, positioning and on-site placement are all included when large or heavy systems are involved. 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. For instance, a dairy installation may involve connecting the site's existing pumps, pipelines and milking systems to the new milk tanks. The team reviews the current site infrastructure compatibility for every order before delivery to reduce installation problems. Trusted local contractors are also brought in to manage delivery and get large equipment installed with minimal downtime, particularly in a regional or remote location with limited site access. Whether you're looking up 'stainless steel fab' or 'dairy products equipment', you can turn to us for clear timelines provided during the quoting process. If you've been interested in 'heat recovery system' or 'cip cleaning', call us at (03) 5941 6111 to learn more.
