Across Australia, many industrial facilities still rely on older but well-engineered pump systems that have delivered decades of dependable service.
As these legacy pumps reach the end of their operational life, maintaining their performance requires more than just standard servicing; it calls for genuine engineering expertise and a thorough understanding of how these machines were originally designed.

Are you an Australian property developer, business owner, or council official hoping to make your community or development more water-resilient? Planning to integrate a water reuse or water recycling pump system into your infrastructure? That’s a forward-thinking move, especially as the demand for sustainable water management grows.
But where do you begin if you have no background in engineering or water treatment? This article gives you a practical overview to help bridge that knowledge gap. Use it as a starting checklist for your early planning sessions, so you know what to ask, what to prepare, and who to bring on board.

As climate change leads to more prolonged and frequent droughts, wastewater reuse will become an increasingly important issue. This means water recycling pumps will play an increasingly important role in building up climate change resilience for Australia.
In this article, we’ll look at which sectors in the country have the best potential to scale up water recycling by the next decade – and what pump technologies can help fast-track that adaptation.

You may have seen some companies and influencers promoting the use of a freeze-dry machine for the home. They say freeze-drying lets you keep and use more of your fresh produce, better than traditional pickling or canning. They claim that you’ll minimise food waste and maximise the number of meals you can get out of them — thus, increasing your savings and the power of your dollar.
But how realistic is this? Do the long-term benefits of DIY freeze-dried family meals exceed the cost and effort to create them? Since Flo-Max is one of Australia’s foremost authorities on freeze-drying, we’re here to set the record straight.

Australia’s bushfire seasons are becoming more severe, driven by climate change. While the destruction of land and property is devastating, an often-overlooked consequence is drinking water contamination. We have spent years building pumps for water treatment for various clients in Australia and we’ve helped them deal with water contamination issues after bushfires. In this article, we’ll share what we know of the best strategies and water treatment pumps to use for this problem.
If you work for local council or manage a water utility, this is exactly the starting information you need. But consult us as soon as possible, for bushfire water contamination is an urgent matter. The sooner we help you adapt and choose the best pumps to strengthen your water treatment processes, the safer your community’s water supply will be.

We value side channel blowers for being durable, reliable, and their ability to provide consistent performance across various applications. In industries where cost efficiency is paramount, these pumps are known for their versatility and low maintenance needs. To illustrate this, here is an overview of the wide range of applications of side channel blowers.
