Stainless steel aseptic tanks for maximum hygiene
Aseptic tanks and sterile tanks are essential whenever the highest hygiene standards for stored products are required. These stainless steel tanks are designed and manufactured to perform reliably under the most demanding conditions. They remain stable during high temperatures, steam sterilisation, overpressure, and underpressure.
With decades of expertise, Gpi Schwarte delivers aseptic storage and process tanks that combine durability, safety, and hygienic design. Each tank is engineered to provide the perfect sterile environment, making it a trusted solution for industries where contamination-free storage is critical.
We build aseptic tanks for a wide variety of applications in the food, beverage, dairy, pharmaceutical, and biotechnology sectors. By creating a controlled environment for sensitive liquids and semi-liquids, our tanks help manufacturers protect product quality while meeting the strictest international hygiene requirements.
Applications of aseptic tanks
Aseptic tanks are designed for the safe storage and processing of products that require the highest hygiene standards. They are used across multiple industries where contamination-free storage is essential, including:
- Dairy products such as milk, yoghurt, cream, and whey
- Pharmaceutical liquids that must be handled under sterile conditions
- Juices, beverages, and baby food, ensuring product safety and extended shelf life
- Fermented and bio-based products requiring a controlled, hygienic environment
- Other sensitive ingredients where contamination-free storage is critical for quality
Tank Specifications
- Materials: Our aseptic tanks are manufactured from high-quality stainless steels, including AISI 304, 316L, and 321, ensuring excellent corrosion resistance and long service life. We are capable of producing vessels with a low delta ferrite content.
- Inner Surface Design: To guarantee maximum hygiene and easy cleaning, the inner tank surface is ground to a roughness (Ra) of < 0.2–0.8 µm, tailored to the product and process requirements.
- Volume & Capacity: We design and produce aseptic tanks in a wide range of sizes, with capacities up to 400m3. This allows us to provide solutions for both medium-sized facilities and large-scale production sites.
- Installation Options: Our aseptic tanks can be supplied as internal or external units and installed on skirt supports , saddles or other custom support constuctions.
Temperature control: heating and cooling
Precise process conditions are crucial for aseptic production. We offer multiple heating and cooling jacket solutions, depending on the required temperature range, medium, and pressure conditions. These systems guarantee reliable and energy-efficient temperature control.
Insulation options
Stable product conditions are ensured by effective insulation, tailored to the installation site and process requirements. Our options include:
- Chloride-free wool
- Polyurethane foam
- Stainless steel cladding
- Coated trapezoidal sheet
- Other materials upon request
