Apparatus & tank construction
The properties of apparatus and containers are always based on the standards and requirements of the respective industrial sector. We implement the individual specifications of our customers.
Individual apparatus and tank construction
With our experience and technical equipment, we are able to meet the challenges in apparatus and tank construction in a flexible and solution-oriented manner. In order to ensure the safe and professional use of the apparatus and containers, we comply with the individual specifications, which are inspiration, motivation and obligation for us. We value mutual exchange. The fact that we are allowed to develop suitable solutions for a wide variety of industrial sectors, from chemicals to foodstuffs to energy technology, presents us with great challenges time and again, in apparatus and tank construction. Our experience and expertise in all aspects of stainless steel flow into every project.
