Cambridge based BA Pumps & Sprayers, specialists in New Zealand-made spraying equipment, has acquired Tokoroa Engineering’s product range, including the iconic Milk Bar mobile calf feeder products, alongside calf and feed trailers.

The purchase further expands BA Pump’s comprehensive product offerings. While the manufacturing of the new product range has already been relocated to BA’s modern manufacturing plant located in Hautapu, Cambridge, contact details for Tokoroa Engineering products remain unchanged, to ensure a smooth transition for existing customers.

The move marks another milestone for BA Pumps & Sprayers, the company says, reinforcing its commitment to top-quality, locally-made solutions for New Zealand’s agricultural sector.

“We are very excited to add this product range to our stable,” says Mark Harris, general manager of BA Pumps & Sprayers.

“The acquisition allows us to leverage our top-class New Zealand-made manufacturing capabilities and offer our reseller and end-user customers an even wider range of products.

“We are also excited about joining forces with McInnes Manufacturing who pioneered the Milk Bar teat and the associated product range and will manufacture the rest of the Milk Bar product range alongside us. McInnis really understands calf rearing, and operate a professional global company from NZ, while sharing the same family values as BA.”

Warwick Felton of Tokoroa Engineering added, “Our customers can continue to expect the same great products, now backed by BA’s extensive industry experience and production expertise”.
