Top 5 Pressure Tank Manufacturers in Asia

Could you ever imagine a world without any storage solutions for the different kinds of substances used every day? Through the years, tanks have innovated from simply just being a storage space, to a fully customisable pressure tank. Luckily in Asia, sourcing and fabricating metal, as well as more reasonable labour costs gave way for companies to establish and advance storage, dispensing, and manufacturing systems. To give you an idea on how far Asian countries have gone in the tank industry, here are the top pressure tank manufacturers in Asia, supplying to different parts of the world:

1. UNICONTROLS – Singapore

With concern for the environment, CN Asia also fabricates environment-friendly double wall Steel/Fibre Jacketed storage tanks for underground storage.

4. SUTEE GROUP – Thailand

Thailand-based Sutee Group started out manufacturing dished heads from carbon steel, stainless steel, or aluminium alloys; and later on ventured to fabricating pressure tanks, oil tanks, LPG tanks, and industrial boilers. Its long-term presence in the industry led it to be affiliated with 6 companies covering all areas of logistics, including trucks and trailers, conveyor systems, factory and building design and construction, factory automation systems, and also robots. The affiliate company, Sutee Tankers and Special Trucks Co., Ltd. is in charge of the production of pressure tanks for factories, rickshaws, gas trucks, and trailers.
