DESIGN YOUR CUSTOM STAINLESS STEEL TANK

Engineered Stainless Steel Tanks Built for Industrial Processing

At EIC Tanks, we design and manufacture custom stainless steel tanks engineered for storage, blending, and process integration across food, pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, chemical, and industrial markets.

Every tank is fabricated to meet your exact production requirements — including capacity, pressure rating, agitation needs, sanitary standards, and plant layout constraints.

We build vertical and horizontal tanks ranging from 50 gallons to 30,000+ gallons, engineered for performance, durability, and long-term operational reliability.

STORAGE TANKS DESIGNED FOR STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY & LONGEVITY

A properly engineered stainless steel storage tank must withstand product weight, internal pressure, agitation loads, and environmental stress over years of operation.

Our engineering team calculates shell thickness, head design, reinforcement, and support structure based on:

 • Capacity and product density

 • Seismic and wind load requirements

 • Internal pressure or vacuum rating

 • Agitation torque (if applicable)

 • Installation environment

We fabricate tanks using 304 or 316 stainless steel, selected based on corrosion resistance requirements and process compatibility.

ASME PRESSURE VESSEL & CODE-COMPLIANT FABRICATION

For pressurized or vacuum applications, we manufacture ASME Section VIII Division 1 pressure vessels in compliance with applicable industry codes. Our ASME-certified stainless steel tanks can be built for:

 • Internal pressure

 • Full vacuum service

 • Heated or jacketed operation

 • Regulated process environments

Each pressure-rated vessel can be National Board registered when required and supplied with supporting documentation.

CUSTOM MIXING TANKS ENGINEERED FOR PROCESS PERFORMANCE

When agitation is required, the tank must be engineered as a complete system — not just a shell with a mixer added on top. 

We design mixing tanks based on:

 • Product viscosity range

 • Desired shear level

 • Batch time requirements

 • Homogenization targets

 • Discharge method

Available configurations include top-entering agitators, high-shear mixers, sweep agitation, dual-motion systems, and bottom-entry homogenizers. Agitation torque and motor sizing are calculated to ensure consistent blending performance under full production loads.

VERTICAL & HORIZONTAL TANK CONFIGURATIONS

We manufacture both vertical and horizontal stainless steel tanks depending on your facility layout and process integration needs. Vertical tanks are ideal for space efficiency and gravity discharge systems.

Horizontal tanks are often selected for transportation constraints, skid integration, or specific structural requirements. Tanks can be built with:

 • Open-top or closed-top construction

 • Dished, cone, or flat bottoms

 • Leg-mounted, skirted, or saddle supports

 • Skid-mounted integrated systems

Each configuration is engineered for structural stability and plant compatibility.

OUR STEP-BY-STEP TANK ENGINEERING PROCESS

1. Process & Application Review

We begin by understanding your product, production goals, facility constraints, and compliance requirements.

2. Mechanical Design & Load Calculations

Our engineers determine shell thickness, reinforcement requirements, nozzle sizing, and agitation torque where applicable.

3. Approval Drawings

You receive detailed approval drawings showing overall dimensions, nozzle orientation, support structure, and optional system integration. Fabrication begins only after final approval.

4. Fabrication & Quality Control

Our fabrication team welds, assembles, and inspects each tank under strict quality standards. Weld integrity, dimensional accuracy, and finish requirements are verified throughout production.

5. Final Inspection & Delivery

Before shipment, each tank undergoes dimensional verification and visual inspection to ensure it meets engineering specifications.

OPTIONAL FEATURES & PROCESS ENHANCEMENTS

To support advanced processing needs, we offer integrated options including:

 • Temperature probes and instrumentation ports

 • Load cells for batch weighing

 • Spray balls for CIP systems

 • Level sensors

 • Sight glasses

 • Vacuum-rated construction

 • Explosion-proof motors

 • PLC control integration

 • Jacketed tank configurations

All options are incorporated during the design phase to ensure seamless integration.

Designed for Sanitary Operation & Production Efficiency

For sanitary applications, interior welds can be ground and polished to meet required finish standards. Proper drain geometry, slope design, and sanitary fittings ensure effective cleaning and reduced product retention. Our tanks are engineered to maintain structural integrity while supporting efficient cleaning, consistent batch performance
