High-performance stainless steel tanks for fermentation, storage, and processing in distilleries.
Spirit production demands precision, hygiene, and reliability. Our stainless steel tanks are engineered to meet the unique requirements of distilleries, supporting everything from fermentation through to blending and storage. With robust construction, custom options, and a focus on compliance, we provide solutions that ensure consistent quality and long-term performance.
Stable Fermentation
Fermentation Control
Accurate fermentation is the foundation of high-quality spirits. Our tanks can be fitted with integrated cooling jackets to maintain stable conditions, ensuring consistency across every batch and protecting the integrity of the wash.
Consistent Quality
Storage & Blending
Whether used for holding, conditioning, or blending, stainless steel offers an inert environment that protects the spirit prior to maturation. Tanks can be specified in a wide range of capacities to suit both craft and large-scale distilleries.
Food-Grade Assurance
Food-Grade Standards
Our vessels are designed with smooth surfaces, precision welds, and CIP (clean-in-place) compatibility to simplify cleaning and minimise contamination risks. Manufactured to international food industry standards, they provide full regulatory compliance.
Tailored Solutions
Designed Around Your Distillery
Every distillery operates differently. Whether you need fermentation tanks, blending vessels, or transportable units, our design team will work with you to create a specification that fits your production space and process.
Each tank is produced to order, with customisable features that ensure hygienic operation, ease of use, and long-term performance.

Fermentation & Storage
Whisky
Whisky washbacks and storage tanks require precision engineering to ensure consistent fermentation before distillation. Our stainless steel vessels provide temperature stability, hygiene, and long-term reliability, making them ideal for both traditional and modern distilleries.
Blending & Flavour
Gin
Gin production often involves blending neutral spirits with botanicals. Our stainless steel tanks offer a hygienic, inert environment that preserves delicate flavours and aromas, with options for mixing systems to support consistent results at scale.
Reliable Fermentation
Rum
Rum relies on the careful fermentation of molasses or sugarcane derivatives. Our tanks can be fitted with cooling jackets to maintain stable conditions, ensuring reliable fermentation performance and protecting product quality.
Flexible Solutions
Vodka & Other Spirits
For vodka and other spirits, our stainless steel tanks provide flexibility across fermentation, blending, and storage. With a wide range of capacities and custom options, we can design vessels to suit both small craft producers and large-scale operations.
