Storage tanks for every industry
The distribution and storage of goods is an essential link in the bulk goods logistics chain. Gpi has a great deal of experience in manufacturing storage tanks with capacities of up to 15,000 m³ that are suitable for storing fuel, oils, and various chemical products. Our expertise when it comes to mixing, heating and cooling can bring added value to your facility. Gpi manufactures stainless steel storage tanks up to a capacity of 15,000 m³. Depending on the location, we can build the tanks in our factory in Groot-Ammers on the river Lek and transport them via water or construct them on-location.
For this, we often use our Coil Building system, which ensures a highly efficient manufacturing process and qualitatively high-grade tanks. Safety is the number one priority for storage tanks of any size produced by any construction method, both during manufacture and use. Our tanks can be set up according to all the relevant standards, such as Eurocode 3, EN 14015, ASME, and API 650. We can also help you with your licence application if your tank installation falls under a PGS 29/30/31 regime. If the product in question needs to be kept under specific conditions, we can advise you on the use of agitators, heating, cooling, and the various types of insulation. For example, you can read about the two 3,500 m³ fermentation tanks which we recently delivered that had specific insulation and agitator requirements here.

‘The teamwork was excellent. At the end of the day, it’s all about the people, and in that respect Gpi excels’
Bakelite Synthetics requested two 700 m³ formaldehyde storage tanks, based on their existing design with augers, heating, full insulation, and constructed in Duplex 2205 for improved performance over 304L.

Our collaborations in storage & terminals
‘Gpi provided exactly what we needed: well-insulated tanks that also comply with our ISO 50001 standard for energy management.’
GETEC PARK EMMEN is one of the largest industrial parks in the Netherlands. The 115-hectare site is home to companies active in chemicals, polymers, and biobased applications. GETEC provides all the utilities needed to keep industrial processes running, such as electricity, water, steam, and heating. The water tank used for steam production at the industrial park was due for replacement. For this reason, the company approached Gpi Tanks with a request for two new stainless steel storage tanks.
