the evolution of stainless steel tanks

Historically, stainless steel tanks have been favoured for their corrosion resistance and longevity. Now, with the incorporation of the honeycomb heat exchange surface, these vessels are reaching a new level of performance. This design enables the temperature of the liquid to be precisely maintained, which is essential in applications such as pharmaceutical manufacturing, food fermentation or chemical reaction.

the honeycomb concept: a thermal revolution

The honeycomb heat exchange surface is made up of thin metal strips arranged in the shape of a honeycomb and integrated into the wall of the tank. These channels allow the passage of a heat transfer fluid, generally hot or cold water, to regulate the temperature of the liquid contained in the tank. This configuration provides a large surface area for contact between the fluid in the tank and the coolant, resulting in more efficient heat transfer. This unique configuration facilitates even temperature distribution and improves energy efficiency. The benefits are many: reduced operating costs, improved product quality, and a smaller environmental footprint.
