Total Tanks Factory Welded Storage Tanks:
Maximum Efficiency, Highest Standards.

With more than 100 years of expertise in delivering superior tank materials and performance, Total Tanks' craftsmen and suppliers have some of the best production results, industry-wide.
Our tanks and silos are constructed of sidewall panels that are precision cut, formed and then factory coated for superior protection against abrasion and corrosion while retaining high gloss and color retention We fabricate our bolted and welded silos in dedicated facilities to maintain our exacting standards. The raw metal sheets of carbon steel, aluminum and stainless steel come in one door and all operations are completed in the same building. Our plants are fully equipped with state-of-the-art metal forming technologies. All facilities are ISO 9001 quality system certified--all of which translates into maximum durability, with low maintenance.
All of our welders are ASME or AWS certified for structural welding and welding procedures for our welded silos are qualified to ASME Section IX. Shell seams are full-penetration welded using sub-arc welding processes with copper backup. Other seams may be made with gas metal arc welding, flux-colored arc welding or submerged arc welding, as appropriate.
Welded silos can also be installed quickly. Factory-welded silos are shipped on special unloading trailers, so that the installation proceeds simply, usually with a single crane.
Both bolted and welded silos can be installed quickly. Bolted components are containerized for international shipments, and field assembly is fast and simple. Our factory-welded silos are shipped on special unloading trailers. The installation proceeds simply, as with our welded tanks and silos, usually with a single crane. Total Tanks can provide single-source reliability, convenience and responsibility for complete silo erection or for supervision of customer-selected crews.
