Product description

We build stainless steel IBC storage tanks for distilleries and spirit producers who need dependable bulk storage without the risk of contamination or flavor taint. This intermediate bulk container (IBC) tote tank is designed for holding high-proof alcohol, finished spirits, or blending stocks in production environments where hygiene and corrosion resistance are non-negotiable.

The tank is fabricated from either SUS304 or SUS316L, depending on your product chemistry and cleaning routine. For most neutral spirits and whiskey, SUS304 works fine. If you\’re storing acidic or chloride-rich liquids, or if you use aggressive caustic washdowns regularly, we\’d recommend SUS316L for the added molybdenum content that resists pitting. We weld using TIG with full penetration and back-purge argon to keep the weld zone clean and smooth. Interior surfaces are mechanically polished to a Ra ≤ 0.8 µm, which makes draining and CIP much easier.

Standard construction includes a cone bottom with a 2–5° slope for complete drainage, a manhole on top for inspection and cleaning, and a vent with a flame arrestor if you\’re storing flammable spirits. Legs are adjustable for leveling on uneven floors. You can add a dip tube, level sensor, or a jacketed shell for temperature control—though keep in mind that heating or cooling jackets change the pressure rating and require a separate design review. We do not recommend using a non-rated tank for vacuum or pressure service; if you need that, we\’ll build it with the proper thickness and stiffening rings.

These tanks are common in craft distilleries for barrel-fill staging, in large production lines for blending, and in bottling plants as surge tanks. They\’re also used for wine and other alcoholic beverages where stainless steel\’s inertness is preferred over plastic or lined tanks.

FAQ

How do I choose between 304 and 316L? If you store high-proof spirits (above 40% ABV) at ambient temperature, 304 is fine. If you use hot caustic or acid cleaning, or if the liquid has chloride ions, go with 316L.

Can I use this tank for vacuum or pressure? No—standard tanks are atmospheric only. For pressure or vacuum, we need to calculate wall thickness and add reinforcement. Tell us your operating conditions.

What size do I need? Determine your working volume plus headspace. For spirits, we usually recommend leaving 10–15% empty for expansion and agitation.

Before you request a quote, have these details ready: the product you\’re storing, required capacity, material grade preference, working temperature, available floor space, and any special fittings like a sight glass or bottom valve. That way we can recommend the right configuration and give you an accurate price.

We ordered a complete peanut butter processing line, and overall we’ve been very happy with it. The equipment arrived well packed and everything was installed and tested without major issues. The line runs smoothly, and the mixing and processing have been consistent. Our peanut butter comes out with a good texture, and the equipment is not difficult for our operators to use and clean. The support from the supplier was also helpful during setup. So far, it has been a good investment for our production.
