Quick facts

Storage Tank Suppliers in Ahmedabad

In Vatva, Naroda and Odhav GIDC, a typical tank farm holds acids, caustic lye, solvents and dye intermediates. Acid service generally calls for mild steel with a rubber or other chemical-resistant lining, caustic and many hydrocarbon solvents sit comfortably in plain MS, and SS 304 or 316 comes in where purity matters. Formulation and API plants along the Changodar–Bavla belt lean towards SS 316 solvent receivers and SS 304 purified-water tanks. Textile processors need big epoxy-lined MS tanks for softened water and effluent equalisation, while Sanand’s engineering plants tend to order horizontal diesel tanks and small SS tanks for paint pre-treatment chemicals.

Ahmedabad lies roughly 660 km from our Bhosari works. A tank that fits on a trailer, in practice up to about 3.5 to 4 m in diameter, can be fabricated, tested and sent complete; bigger water and effluent tanks are better erected at site from rolled shell plates, on a level ring-wall or compacted sand-pad foundation prepared in advance. For solvent tanks facing a Gujarat summer, we generally suggest a fixed cone roof with pressure–vacuum breather valves, or a nitrogen blanket where the plant already has nitrogen, rather than a plain open vent. Fix inspection dates early and finish the water-fill test before the monsoon.

Sterling has run its fabrication shop at MIDC Bhosari since 1995, building tanks from a single kilolitre upwards, vertical or horizontal, with or without lining. Each tank is leak-tested before dispatch or handover, weld joints are inspected, and dye-penetrant or radiographic examination is arranged when your specification asks for it. Manholes, ladders, platforms, level gauges, vents and nozzles are made to your layout. To get a quotation moving, send the capacity, the liquid and its working temperature, your preferred material and any drawing you have, or simply ring +91-968-901-1211.

Storage Tanks for Ahmedabad’s Industries

Ahmedabad’s chemical and dyestuff units are concentrated in Vatva, Naroda and Odhav GIDC, pharma manufacturing runs along the Changodar–Bavla belt, and Sanand has grown into an automobile and engineering hub. Textile processing, the city’s oldest industry, still runs a large number of process boilers.

Most storage tanks enquiries from Ahmedabad come from chemical and dyestuff plants, pharmaceutical and bulk-drug units, textile processing houses and auto-component and engineering plants, mainly in Vatva, Naroda and Odhav GIDC, the Changodar–Bavla belt and Sanand. What each of them typically needs:

  • Chemical and dyestuff plants: Solvents, acids and intermediates are stored in MS, SS and lined tanks.
  • Pharmaceutical and bulk-drug units: Purified water, solvents and product holding need SS tanks.
  • Textile processing houses: Water, chemicals, dyes and effluent treatment all need tanks.
  • Auto-component and engineering plants: Process water, fuel and paint-shop chemicals need tanks.

Site conditions and delivery to Ahmedabad

Strong summer heat increases vapour losses from tanks holding volatile liquids, which affects the roof type and paint colour. Ahmedabad is about 660 km by road from our works at MIDC Bhosari, Pune, about a day’s transit, so most assemblies are shipped fully fabricated and tested.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. Fabrication is done at our Bhosari works in Pune and the finished work is dispatched by road to Ahmedabad, Gujarat. Send the details listed in the enquiry form, or call +91-968-901-1211, and we will confirm scope, price and delivery in the quotation.

Storage of petroleum products above the threshold quantities needs a PESO licence, and hazardous-chemical storage is covered by the MSIHC Rules and the unit’s consent from the Gujarat Pollution Control Board (GPCB). Tanks are designed with those requirements in mind.
