Downtime costs milk. Stocked spares prevent it.

On a working dairy farm, even the smallest component can have a big impact.
When a part fails, milk cooling, hygiene, and daily routines are immediately at risk.

That is why Fabdec Dairy Systems supports farmers with readily available dairy tank spare parts, helping minimise disruption, protect milk quality, and keep operations running smoothly.

From flow control and cleaning components to milk cooling essentials, the right spare at the right time can be the difference between a minor fix and lost production.

Because reliable equipment is not just about the tank itself.
It is about everything that keeps it working, day after day.

Why weld quality determines long-term reliability

In stainless steel manufacturing, reliability is rarely defined by what you can see on day one.
It is defined by how equipment performs years later.

Weld quality plays a critical role in that outcome.

A high-quality weld is not simply about appearance. It is about pe*******on, consistency, and metallurgical integrity. When these fundamentals are correct, the vessel maintains its strength, hygiene, and corrosion resistance throughout its service life.

Poor weld ex*****on, however, introduces long-term risk. Incomplete pe*******on, excessive heat input, or inconsistent weld profiles can lead to stress concentration, crevice corrosion, and premature failure under thermal or pressure cycling.

This is why controlled welding procedures, skilled operators, and rigorous inspection are essential in industrial manufacturing. At Fabdec Group, welding is treated as an engineering discipline, not a production shortcut.

Because long-term reliability is not designed at installation.
It is built into every weld.

A recently manufactured a 300 litre bespoke buffer vessel, manufactured by the EXCELSIOR engineering team.

This unit has been specifically designed with a short, wide footprint to meet challenging installation constraints where height is limited, but system performance cannot be compromised.

By tailoring the vessel geometry, we were able to maintain the required buffer capacity while ensuring the unit integrates seamlessly into the customer’s plant room layout. As with all EXCELSIOR equipment, the vessel has been manufactured in Britain using high-quality stainless steel and engineered for long-term reliability.

This project highlights how bespoke buffer solutions provide practical answers when standard configurations are simply not suitable.

Energy is one of the highest running costs on a modern dairy farm.

The SPAR-HEAT heat recovery system from Fabdec Dairy Systems is designed to reduce the energy required to produce hot wash water by making better use of heat already generated within the dairy cooling process.

For many farms, this results in lower reliance on primary energy sources, helping reduce running costs while maintaining the hygiene standards dairy operations depend on every day.

Beyond efficiency gains, SPAR-HEAT also supports long-term sustainability goals by lowering overall energy consumption and associated carbon emissions.

Manufactured and integrated in the UK, SPAR-HEAT is engineered to work seamlessly alongside Fabdec milk cooling equipment, delivering dependable performance year after year. With a typical payback period of under two years, it offers a clear, measurable return on investment.

Lower energy use. Lower running costs.
Engineered for British dairy.

2026 marks Fabdec Group’s 66th year in operation.

Since 1960, we have designed and manufactured stainless steel equipment in Britain for industries that depend on reliability and performance.

However, longevity alone is not what defines us.

What matters is how standards evolve, how engineering improves, and how consistently expectations are met.

As we move through our 66th year, with our 66th anniversary later in the year, our focus remains unchanged. Disciplined manufacturing. Robust engineering. Equipment built to perform long after installation.

Built on experience. Focused on the future.

A bespoke 100-litre buffer vessel, recently manufactured by the EXCELSIOR team.

Designed to integrate seamlessly into a customer-specific water heating system, this compact buffer provides thermal stability, improved system efficiency, and reliable performance where space is at a premium.

Manufactured in-house from high-grade stainless steel, the vessel reflects EXCELSIOR’s approach to bespoke engineering tailoring capacity, connections, and layout to suit the exact application rather than forcing a standard solution.

From compact buffers to full water heating systems, our team continues to support installers, OEMs, and project engineers with British-built, application-led solutions.

A bespoke solution, engineered to fit perfectly.

BRITANX has recently manufactured a 1,000-litre cider mixing tank for a leading cider beverage producer, designed to meet a very specific site constraint.

What makes this vessel unique is its short, wide configuration, engineered to operate efficiently while fitting within a maximum height restriction of just 6 ft.
Rather than compromise on performance or capacity, the design was optimised to deliver effective mixing, stability, and cleanability within a compact vertical footprint.

Manufactured in Britain from high-quality stainless steel, the tank reflects BRITANX’s ability to adapt proven process vessel engineering to real-world production environments where space, access, and existing infrastructure matter just as much as throughput.

This project is a strong example of how bespoke vessel design enables producers to maximise capability without costly building modifications.

Built to last. Designed to keep working.

On a working dairy farm, reliability is just as important as performance.

Fabdec Dairy Systems plate coolers are built using robust stainless-steel construction and a simple, proven design with no moving parts. This approach delivers consistent pre-cooling while keeping maintenance to an absolute minimum.

Fewer components mean fewer failures, reduced downtime, and dependable operation through demanding milking schedules. The result is long service life and cooling equipment farmers can rely on, season after season.

Because on farm, the best equipment is the equipment you do not have to think about.
