Founded in 2001, headquartered in Melbourne and with sites in Sydney, Brisbane, and Adelaide, MPS has established itself as a trusted provider of end-to-end process solutions – from system design and engineering through to construction, commissioning, training, and ongoing maintenance.
The acquisition strengthens AxFlow’s position in Oceania by adding comprehensive project execution capabilities to its established offering. MPS’s expertise in engineering, fabrication, and turnkey project delivery mirrors AxFlow’s decades of experience in Europe, where the Group has successfully delivered large-scale fluid handling projects across multiple industries.
Building on a Proven Model
By joining forces, AxFlow and MPS can now provide customers in Australia with the same full-scope project support that has been central to AxFlow’s success in Europe. Together, the combined teams will be able to deliver hygienic fluid handling systems that meet stringent hygiene, safety, and efficiency standards – from feasibility studies and design, to installation and commissioning, and long-term service support.
Customer Advantages
- Access to local engineering and fabrication expertise, backed by AxFlow’s global knowledge base.
- Stronger project execution capacity, enabling delivery of larger and more complex hygienic systems.
- Continued support across the full system lifecycle – from consultation and design to after-sales service.
- Enhanced national coverage through MPS’s presence in New South Wales, Queensland, Victoria, and South Australia.
Ole Weiner, CEO, AxFlow Group, commented:
“This acquisition represents a natural extension of what AxFlow has been doing in Europe for decades – designing, building, and commissioning hygienic fluid handling systems that meet the highest standards. By adding MPS’s strong local engineering and fabrication capabilities, we are creating a platform for growth in Australia’s Food & Beverage sector and beyond.”
Andrew Raine, Chairman & Managing Director, Matrix Process Solutions:
“Partnering with AxFlow provides MPS customers with exciting new opportunities. By combining our deep sector expertise with AxFlow’s global resources and technical know-how, we can expand our offering and continue to deliver high-quality solutions.”
Michael Briggs, Managing Director, AxFlow Oceania, added:
“MPS’s strong presence across four states positions us closer to customers in Australia’s Food & Beverage heartlands. Together, we will enhance service capabilities and deliver larger projects with greater efficiency.”
