Site Built tanks
High-Grade Stainless Steel Tanks Built Directly on Location
Gpi offers a complete, site built storage service.
With the help of our unique Coil Building machine, we can produce tanks directly on location.
Our company can efficiently erect tanks with a diameter of up to 30 metres and a height of up to 30 metres.
Up to 15.000 m3
Gpi produces, delivers and installs storage tanks from 5 litres up to 10.000 m3.
EN14015 / API 650
Our storage tanks comply with standards, regulations and building codes as:
- EN14015
- EN13445
- KIWA
- ASME
- BRL
- API 650
- PGS 29
- PGS 30
- Eurocode 3
- DIN 4119
- PED
Mounting VCA-P
Trust our VCA-P-qualified mounting department to mount your tank.
Although building on-location often involves building large storage tanks, we can also build smaller tanks measuring, for example, 10m3, on-location.
Whenever a tank is built in the factory so that it can no longer be installed, we are able to prefabricate it to the greatest extent possible and then assemble it on location.
Safety is of the highest importance for tanks of any size produced by any construction method, both during manufacture and use.
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 if your installation falls under a PGS 29 / 30 /31 regime.
Do you have any questions about our storage tanks?
Coil Building
The Gpi Coil Building system is a production method via which tanks with a diameter of up to 30 metres and a height of up to 30 metres can be produced.
The machine uses a decoiling system that unrolls the stainless steel and cuts it off to create a body section, after which the welding process takes place entirely automatically.
The tanks are lifted up by means of a computer-controlled hydraulic lift so that the body section can be welded on its underside.
The compactness of the system makes building large, high-quality stainless steel tanks on location a possibility.
Parallel Production
When identical tanks need to be built on-location within a short time frame, we can also employ a parallel production process.
In contrast to our Coil Building system, we build several tanks simultaneously, whereby one centrally positioned crane carries out lifting operations.
