How it differs
Difference from a fuel tanker: higher corrosion-resistance and cargo-isolation requirements, so selection must follow the exact product and regulations

Buildable configurations
What can be specified on this product, and what each choice changes. Combinations are confirmed by engineering against your axle-load limits and destination regulations before they are quoted.
Medium Compatibility
Acids, Alkalis & Corrosive Media
Materials, lining, seals and valves are validated for acids, alkalis or strongly corrosive media
Best for: a defined chemical and concentration range
If omitted: only media proven compatible with the base construction may be carried—corrosion resistance must never be assumed from the product name.
Changes: Tank Material Grade, Tank Shell Thickness, Reference Compatible Cargo
Confirmed at inquiry: Provide cargo, SDS, density, temperature, loading/discharge pressure and destination code
Tank Internal Protection
Lined
Internal lining isolates cargo from the structural tank material
Best for: chemicals incompatible with the base metal or needing contamination control
If omitted: cargo contacts the tank material directly, which is simpler but requires proven compatibility.
On our sample Tank Geometric Volume 28,500–30,000 L
Changes: Tank Geometric Volume, Reference Tare Weight, Lining / Internal Finish
Confirmed at inquiry: Confirm volume split, materials, thickness design basis, cleaning and transfer connections
Tank Material
Stainless Steel
Stainless-steel construction balances corrosion resistance, cleanability and medium flexibility
Best for: chemicals validated against the selected grade
If omitted: lined carbon steel or other materials may be more economical, but cargo range and maintenance differ.
Changes: Tank Material Grade
Confirmed at inquiry: Confirm volume split, materials, thickness design basis, cleaning and transfer connections

What you can verify before ordering
The plant is ours
Ask for a live walk-through of the welding line, the blasting chamber and the paint booth on the day you call. A trading company cannot do this on request.
Engineers answer, not a sales desk
Configuration questions are answered by the engineering team. If an answer needs a calculation, you get the calculation.
Vessels are certified by third parties
Pressure tests are witnessed and the certificate carries the chassis number of the unit, so it can be matched to the trailer that arrives.
Drawings are kept on file
The approved general arrangement drawing is archived against your chassis number for the life of the unit, which is what makes a spare part orderable years later.
Export paperwork is in house
Invoice, origin certificate, chassis number list and test certificates are issued by our own export desk, so a correction takes hours rather than a week.
Repeat batches stay identical
A follow-on order is built from the drawing you already approved, so parts interchange across your fleet instead of nearly fitting.
Other variants in this category
Same platform, different body or duty. Worth comparing before you settle on one.
Send your drawing or your load case
A sales engineer confirms the specification for this product against your route, axle-load limits and destination regulations, then returns a drawing and a delivered price.
