Your molasses pumping and handling specialist.

We’re the experts in molasses pumps, storage and equipment.

It’s thick, sticky stuff.

But we take the hassle out of handling molasses with our powerful pumping and storage systems.

Ever tried to gravity feed molasses in winter? Or lugged a heavy hose up a ladder to top-fill a tank? Transferred molasses and found yourself and your equipment in a syrupy mess?

Ballard Industrial is streamlining the handling of molasses and making lives easier across Australia.

With our pumps and systems in place you can handle bulk molasses without getting a lick of syrup on you.

It’s faster, cleaner, safer, and a whole lot smarter.

Our SmartFlow system is also a form of insurance against drought. Stock up in good times and rest easy in dry times knowing you have bulk supplement on hand to carry your livestock through.

Ballard Industrial supplies BGC Series and Rotoflo Series molasses gear pumps.

Our BGC Series and Rotoflo gear pumps with various drive options are servicing the agricultural sector as well as molasses and dunder transporters, farmers applying molasses for soil health, distilleries and treatment plants, abattoirs pumping tallow, and more.

If it’s a thick, viscous fluid, we can pump it.

Outstanding workmanship

I'm using the 3" pump to transfer raw molasses in and out of storage tanks. It's easy to use and works well. The workmanship is outstanding.

— Andrew Butler, Condamine, QLD

Personalised service

Thanks for your help setting up my new molasses pump on our trailer. You were both great to work with while sorting out what we actually needed and then supplying the gear.

— Ross Matthews, Sarina, QLD

Attention to detail

…When the pump and fittings arrived, every threaded connection had thread tape applied. Every fitting that could be connected, was connected. So there was very little to do except connect hoses and the last few fittings. Service was above and beyond. Made the set-up so easy and quick.

— Jason, Dululu, QLD
