We are a family-owned business, founded in 1989 by siblings Mark, Penny, and Guy Rendle. Like so many Kiwi businesses, we started BA Pumps & Sprayers, formerly known as Bertolini Australasia, out of the belief that we could design and build a better product.

Our approach to business is built around the simple premise that combining good old-fashioned Kiwi ingenuity, with the world’s best components and technology, backed up by nationwide support and service will always be a winning formula.

With a combined experience in excess of 125 years rooted in the agricultural sector, our sales and service team prides itself on delivering the best advice, solutions, and product support nationwide.

Our History
From Bertolini Australasia to BA Pumps & Sprayers
1989
Bertolini Australasia is born

Working as a distributor for Bertolini Pumps the Rendle siblings had noticed an increasing need for high-quality sprayers and pumps for the local agricultural, horticultural, and industrial markets and were determined to do something about it.

Moved to 89 Hautapu Road

After outgrowing a number of premises across Hamilton, it was time to move to a custom-built facility just outside of Cambridge, with offices, board room, fab shop, warehouse and assembly area.

Rebranded to BA Pumps & Sprayers

Over the years we’ve added a number of other items to our range, including distribution rights for Collard, so it was time to have our own name to encompass everything we do whilst not losing our connection to the Bertolini brand.
