How it differs
Difference from a chemical tanker: prioritises hygiene, validated cleaning and cross-contamination prevention rather than corrosion resistance alone

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.
Compartment Layout
Multi-compartment
Multiple compartments separate food liquids or batches and reduce surge
Best for: multi-customer or multi-product delivery
If omitted: a single compartment is easier to clean, leaves less residue and uses volume better, but cannot segregate loads.
On our sample Number of Compartments 3–4 compartments
Changes: Number of Compartments, Reference Tare Weight, Reference Payload, Food Hygiene & Cleaning
Confirmed at inquiry: Confirm volume split, materials, thickness design basis, cleaning and transfer connections
Compatible Cargo
Edible Oils
Seals, piping and cleaning arrangements suit edible-oil viscosity and food hygiene
Best for: vegetable oils and validated compatible fats
If omitted: the base food tanker may serve milk, juice or other products, but materials and cleaning must match the exact cargo.
Changes: Tank Material Grade, Reference Compatible Cargo
Confirmed at inquiry: Provide cargo, SDS, density, temperature, loading/discharge pressure and destination code
Specifying for your region
The same product is built differently for different markets. These are the running-gear and compliance points that decide the build, by destination.

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.
