What Banlaw does
Banlaw is an Australian private industrial technology company that designs, manufactures, and services integrated fluid transfer hardware, measurement and control systems, and site-infrastructure solutions for heavy industry. Its product platform, branded as Fluid Asset Intelligence, is built around three interconnected systems: ResTrack (fuel and fluid management controllers and RMS enterprise software), FillSafe (mechanical and electronic tank overfill protection), and FlowLogix (custom liquid infrastructure engineering). The company offers more than 700 products spanning refuelling nozzles and dry-break couplers, flow control valves, automatic equipment identification, automatic tank gauging, diesel exhaust fluid (AdBlue) transfer, and bulk fluid transfer couplings. Technical differentiators include patented dry-break refuelling hardware claimed to last four times longer than competitors, mechanical pressureless overfill protection supporting diesel flow rates up to 1,000 litres per minute (claimed to be double the industry average), and 99.5%+ fuel accountability accuracy in challenging industrial environments.
Banlaw serves enterprise customers primarily in mining, with additional verticals in rail, ports, agriculture, construction, road transport, and government/defence. Named reference customers include Fortescue, BHP, Rio Tinto, Glencore, Anglo American, Barrick Gold, Newcrest, Kennecott, OceanaGold, Kinross, and Evolution Mining, as well as Pacific National (rail) and the Royal Australian Navy. The business model combines hardware sales, recurring software (ResTrack RMS, offered as cloud or local deployment with SAP API), professional services for infrastructure projects, and ongoing site maintenance and repair — monetised through direct enterprise sales and a 60+ authorised distributor network covering more than 30 countries. Banlaw Pty Ltd is headquartered in Gateshead, New South Wales, with regional offices in Malaga (Western Australia) and Salt Lake City (Utah, USA). The company is privately held, has no disclosed external funding, and was founded in 1985 (per company history; some firmographic sources reference 1980), operating with 51–100 employees and a wholly owned precision metal engineering subsidiary (R&R Murphy, acquired 2023).
