Better powder handling
since 1958
Our Story
For better powder handling since 1958
If you’ve ever eaten a cake, enjoyed a cola, or coated a wall with paint, chances are Floveyor played a part in getting those products into your hands. Floveyor has been helping small manufacturers and world-renowned brands build efficiency and safety into their production lines since 1958.
Founder Robert Walker’s curiosity and passion for engineering drove the creation of an aero-mechanical prototype for moving peanuts. He patented the aero-mechanical method of conveying (AMC).
Today, our proprietary FloDisc® Technology sets us apart in powder handling conveyors.
From our factory in Perth, Western Australia, we design, engineer, manufacture, and distribute our conveyors and process line technology.
Floveyor specialises in powder handling applications for emerging industries like Critical Resources and mature markets such as Agribusiness and Food and Beverage.
Our team adapts each project to meet the unique materials handling challenges and plant design requirements of our customers.
Heritage matters
We began as grassroots inventors inspired by classic technologies. Today we’re world leaders in powder handling.
