Bitumen storage tanks
Bitumen storage tanks are used at asphalt plants and large sites to store bitumen for long periods. Because bitumen can only be pumped above a certain temperature, these tanks are generally designed with thermal insulation and a heating system. Planning the stock volume correctly prevents supply delays from stopping production.
Water tanks
Water is needed continuously in road construction: to moisten fill material before compaction, to suppress dust on site roads, to wet roller drums and for general cleaning. Fixed or vehicle-mounted water tanks make sure the water reaches the point of use on time.
Fuel tanks
Refuelling construction machines and vehicles on site instead of driving to a filling station reduces labour and time loss. In fuel storage, tightness, venting and safe filling and discharge are the leading concerns; relevant regulations and safety requirements must be taken into account at the design stage. Contact our team for volume and configuration.
Frequently Asked Questions
How are tank volumes determined?
Daily consumption, supply frequency, available space on site and transport needs determine the volume. Whether the tank will be fixed or portable also affects the configuration.
What is the difference between a storage tank and a roley tank?
A storage tank is generally for fixed, long-term storage at a plant or facility. A roley tank is a solution that combines storage with transport and can be moved around the site.
What information should I share when requesting a quote for a storage, water and fuel tank?
The make and model of the carrier vehicle (or the towing unit), the type of road and work, the daily workload and any existing hydraulic equipment define the configuration. Dimensions and capacities are determined together with our team.
