Industrial Skimming Solutions for Sydney’s Wastewater
Baldwin’s industrial skimmers are built tough with technology to deliver reliable oil removal for Sydney’s complex wastewater. Our solutions reduce operating costs, downtime and keep your site compliant with NSW Environment Protection Licence (EPL) requirements.
Durable Construction
Industrial wastewater is hard on equipment. Corrosion, temperature fluctuations and chemical exposure are constant. Using high-quality materials like stainless steel or reinforced polymers means your skimmer will be durable and require minimal maintenance.
Rugged components mean fewer repairs and less unexpected downtime, which is critical for Sydney’s busy industrial sites.
Capacity and Efficiency
Your oil skimmer depends on your situation. Whether it’s intermittent oil spills or continuous flow with high contaminant loads, choose a device for your volume and oil type.
Different skimmers target light emulsified oils or heavier substances, so assessing flow rates and oil characteristics is key. Energy-efficient units save you money by using less power and reducing manual oversight.
Floating for Varied Conditions
Sydney’s open basins and ponds experience changing water levels due to rainfall or process flow changes. Floating skimmers maintain contact with the water surface, improving oil removal efficiency in these fluctuating conditions.
Baldwin offers floating skimmers for tough industrial environments that adjust to waves and currents to keep oil collection steady and effective.
After Sales Support
Even the best-built skimmers need occasional maintenance or troubleshooting. Baldwin’s after-sales service provides spare parts and technical advice to minimise downtime.
With over 30 years of experience in Sydney’s industrial sector, our team supports you from routine maintenance to unexpected issues.

Integrating Your Skimmer
Choosing a skimmer is not one size fits all. Make sure your device fits into your wastewater treatment system by:
- Assessing your flow and oil load volumes
- Matching device capacity to your operation
- Planning for future scalability with modular designs
