Pressure vessel
PED-certified stainless steel pressure tanks
PED / EN 13445 / AD 2000 / ASME
Our range includes pressure vessels, and we strongly believe that customer trust is a crucial indicator of Gpi’s quality. Lloyds has audited Gpi’s site and accredited us to independently design and manufacture vessels with pressures exceeding 0.5 bar (H + H1 certification). This ensures our customers work with a top-tier manufacturer of stainless steel pressure vessels.
Experience in pressure vessel manufacturing
Our engineering and production specialists enable us to meet the most rigorous requirements. We hold H and H1 certifications and specialize in designing and manufacturing PED 2014/68/EU-certified steel pressure vessels in compliance with EN 13445, AD 2000, and ASME VIII-1 standards.
For over a quarter of a century, the Gpi Tanks group has been perfecting its resources, ensuring optimal material selection, precise calculations, and meticulous production both in Poland and the Netherlands.
Do you have any questions about our pressure tanks?
Pressure vessels
When manufacturing tanks and reactors for the chemical industry, it is not uncommon to encounter special requirements. Tanks must withstand high pressure (and even vacuum), large temperature fluctuations, and corrosive or abrasive media. The explosion risk poses a significant threat, which our engineers mitigate at the design stage.
As specialists in the construction of pressure vessels, we are able to meet even the most stringent requirements of customers across various industries.
PED vessels
Our project engineers work closely with clients and our quality control department for projects involving PED installations to conduct risk analysis and perform relevant calculations.
Pressure vessels must be designed, manufactured, and tested to ensure safety. As the manufacturer of the vessels, Gpi must maintain traceability of materials and provide usage instructions in a language understood by the customer.
Additionally, we develop a schedule of tests and inspections, allowing us to issue CE declarations for our PED pressure vessels, substantially expediting the project timeline.
