In our workshop
Tanks of any size that can travel by road, with bottoms, tops, jackets and accessories.
Tanks
Stainless steel tanks
from 1,000 litres
to Ø 15 × H 20 m.
Storage and process tanks for olive oil, wine and food liquids. Built in our workshop or directly on site, on their own or as part of a turnkey plant.

For each sector, what we build and what we can adapt.
- Storage tanks built in our workshop or on site, up to Ø 15 × H 20 m
- Nitrogen blanketing
- Turnkey plants with piping, pumping, stairs and walkways
- Vinification tanks and fermenters with jackets
- Storage tanks
- Pump-overs, pomace extraction, rectangular side doors and sloped bottoms
- Storage and process tanks designed around the product
- Built in our workshop or on site
- Also as part of a turnkey plant
From the tank
to the turnkey plant
Along with the tanks, we design and build everything that makes them work. 99% of the plant comes out of our factory, and we install it ourselves.
Turnkey plants- 3D design and FEM analysis
- Tanks built in our workshop and on site
- Piping and pumping stations
- Temperature control with chillers
- Closed-loop CIP cleaning

Two ways to build
Too big for the road? We weld it at your site
On site
When the tank is too big for the road: up to 15 m in diameter and 20 m high, executed as a steel structure to EN 1090.
Technical data
Every tank is custom-built: these are the ranges we work within.
| Capacity | From 1,000 L in our workshop up to the largest size that can travel by road |
|---|---|
| On site | Up to Ø 15 × H 20 m, built in place |
| Steel | AISI 304L or 316L, or a combination: top shell ring and roof in 316L, the rest in 304L |
| Finishes | 2B, Scotch-Brite, satin, Fioretto (swirl finish), mirror-polished: inside and outside chosen separately |
| Bottoms | Conical, or flat and sloping towards the front |
| Tops | Centred conical, or conical offset towards the front; floating lid |
| Calculations | FEM analysis for special cases; seismic design calculation by us |
| Execution | EN 1090 for site-built tanks |
| Lead times | Planned for each order at quotation stage |
How it is built, point by point
Tap a number on the drawing or in the list. Each tank is fitted only with the accessories your product needs.
1 · Top manway
Manway at the centre of the top, for inspection and maintenance.
Finishes
Inside and out, as you need it
Five finishes, chosen separately for the inside and the outside of the tank.
304L 2B
Standard mill finish, smooth and matt.
304L Scotch-Brite
Brushed with abrasive cloth: an even, fine satin look.
304L Satin
Regular, even parallel lines.
304L Fioretto
A pattern of overlapping circles, for a distinctive look.
304L Mirror-polished
A mirror look, with a smoother surface that is easier to clean.
How a tank is made
From the site survey to delivery, everything goes through our factory and our own teams.
- 01
Site survey and requirements
Product, volumes, space and the way you work.
- 02
3D design and FEM analysis
The tank modelled in 3D; FEM studies and simulations for special cases and for the seismic design calculation.
- 03
Approval drawing
You approve it before the first sheet is cut.
- 04
Laser cutting of tops and bottoms
In our own factory.
- 05
Shell rings from coil
Cut from coil, with a single vertical weld per ring.
- 06
Welding
Assembly and welding of the bottom, shell rings and top.
- 07
Finishing and pickling
The welds are brushed and pickled, which restores the passive layer that protects the stainless steel.
- 08
Delivery or installation
Delivery on our own trucks, or installation on site by our own teams.

Finished tanks, installed tanks and close-up details.
Bottoms, tops and tank types
The options we build most often. Each one adapts to your product and your space.
Bottoms and tops, the way you need them
Bottom
Top
Usually: a sloped flat bottom with a centred top, a conical bottom with an offset top. But you can combine them as you need.
Two-compartment tank
Conical top and bottom with an intermediate bottom: two separate compartments in one tank.
Floating lid
Small tanks with a lid that rises and falls with the product level.
On a pallet base
Small tanks on a pallet base: you move them with a forklift.
Stackable
Small tanks with a frame: they stack on top of each other and save floor space.
Conical bottom on a concrete slab
Large tanks built on site, with the cone resting on a shaped concrete slab.
Sloped flat bottom on a concrete slab
Large tanks built on site, with the bottom sloping towards the outlet, on a concrete slab.
Project · Tunisia
The Tunihuile storage plant
A storage plant for 10,526 tonnes of olive oil, with tanks built partly in our workshop and partly on site, stainless steel piping, stairs and walkways: all built and installed by us. The photos show only part of it.

Frequently asked questions
Stainless steel tanks
Which steel do you use?
AISI 304L and 316L stainless steel. We can also make just the top shell ring and the roof in 316L, with the rest of the tank in 304L.
What capacities do you build?
In our workshop, from 1,000 litres up to the largest size that can travel by road. Beyond that, we build directly on site: so far, up to 15 m in diameter and 20 m high.
What are your delivery times?
We work to order: production and installation times are planned together with you while we prepare the quotation.
Why are there no prices on the website?
Because we work to order and the price depends on your project: dimensions, steel, finishes and accessories. The price of stainless steel also follows the raw materials market and changes all the time. The quotation lists everything that is included; if you want to evaluate a single optional extra, we give you its price separately.
