Who are we?

We are an Australian, 3rd generation, privately-owned company established in 1928.

We supply high-quality industrial & laboratory instrumentation and since the 1990s science & engineering teaching equipment for Australia, New Zealand and the South Pacific.

So why us?

We take great pride in our name, reputation and history, which can be attributed largely to our strong relationships with our suppliers, who have provided us with quality products, reliability of service, safety and support.

In turn, these qualities have resulted in life-time (or longer) relationships with our customers, including Defence, Power, Petrochem, Utilities, Hospitals, Research Facilities, Universities, Colleges, Manufacturing, Food & Beverage and Industry throughout the region.

Our name is paramount, and because of this, our customers are assured of quality, reliability, service and support.

History

On the 12th January 1928, the roots of Duff & Macintosh Pty Ltd was incorporated. Originally named Crossle, Scott & Duff Brothers Limited, the company changed its name to Duff and Macintosh Pty Ltd when Donald Urquart Macintosh joined the company in the 1930s.

Donald Macintosh was William Vere Hobart (Bill) Duff’s brother in law.

Though Duff and Macintosh was officially handed to Mr Paul Orban in 1976, Mr Macintosh continued to work with the company and made regular appearances for a further 15 years.

Today, as in 1928, the company diligently maintains its reputation in the process instrumentation market, by supplying reliable equipment from reliable suppliers.

In the last few years, Duff and Macintosh Pty Ltd embraced new suppliers in the field of training and demonstration apparatus for tertiary education institutions and have successfully expanded sales into New Zealand.
