Northern Stock Water
Title

Northern Stock Water has established and worked hard to maintain our strong, trusted following across Northern Australia. We are an independent company who pride ourselves on offering flexible, specialised and tailored solutions to our customers.

In addition to the severity of the landscape the remoteness, isolation and challenging access routes to these expansive cattle stations served a challenge for pastoralists to obtain advice and materials to undertake water development. 

 

Recognising the need for a tailored solution, the Brown’s founded Northern Stock Water, which quickly expanded into the largest end-to-end rural water development company in Northern Australia, designing, manufacturing, supplying and installing their own quality polyethylene pipe, concrete troughs, water tanks and selected fittings in the NT. 

The rapid success and growth of Northern Stock Water led to the expansion of their business into multiple streams, eventually consolidating under the Bilba Group of Companies, which includes brands such as Elsam, Great Northern Tanks, Northbound Precast, Joco Fencing, and Austral Ag.

Since the early 2000s, Adrian Brown and his wife Emma, have been immersed in Australian agricultural industries including logistics, beef cattle, grain, cotton and hay. After spending a substantial amount of time working on the ground on cattle stations across Northern Australia, Adrian identified water infrastructure as a key limiting factor for efficient business and land management in extensive rangeland beef production systems. 

Whilst water infrastructure was developing into a booming industry in southern states, these solutions were not practical for the harsh seasonal conditions of the Northern Australian outback, with daytime air 

temperature upwards of 400C, freezing overnight temperatures dropping below zero, frequent intense monsoonal rainfall events in the wet season and long scorching dusty months in the dry season.
