Silos & Stainless Steel Tanks

At LITCO, we specialize in the design, fabrication, and installation of silos and stainless steel storage tanks for industrial, commercial, and municipal applications across Saudi Arabia. Our solutions comply with ASME Section VIII, API 650, AWWA D100, and Eurocode standards, ensuring safe, durable, and efficient storage for bulk solids, liquids, and chemicals. 
 
Whether for grain silos, cement storage silos, portable stainless steel water tank, or chemical storage tanks, we provide turnkey solutions engineered for long service life, corrosion resistance, and reliable performance in harsh Middle Eastern environments. 

Design & Engineering Standards of Our Silos & Steel Water Tanks
The design of silos and steel tanks requires a sensitive adjustment of auxiliary astuteness, material compatibility, and effectiveness.

- Codes & Standards: ASME Sec VIII Div. 1 (Pressure Vessels), API 650 (Welded Steel Tanks), AWWA D100 (Water Tanks), Eurocode EN 1991 (Wind & Seismic Loads), OSHA & NFPA (Safety Compliance).

- Design Tools: Tekla Structures (3D modeling), STAAD.Pro (structural analysis), ANSYS (FEA simulations).

- Customization: Capacities from 5,000 liters up to 2 million liters for tanks, and 50 m³ to 5,000 m³ for silos. Available in bolted or welded construction, with options for flat-bottom or conical discharge designs.
Materials & Fabrication of Silos & Steel Water Storage Tanks
The durability and performance of silos and stainless steel water storage tanks are heavily influenced by the quality of materials used in their construction. At LITCO’s Silos and Tanks division, we prioritize material selection, carefully choosing amalgams and coatings that ensure durability, corrosion resistance, and compatibility with the stored materials. - Carbon Steel: ASTM A36, A572 – suitable for cement, aggregates, and dry bulk storage. - Stainless Steel: SS304 & SS316L – ideal for potable water, food-grade, and pharmaceutical applications (FDA-compliant).

- Duplex Steel (2205/2507): For high-chloride or aggressive chemical environments.

- Coatings & Linings: Epoxy, PVDF, FRP, and food-grade linings for chemical compatibility.

All fabrication of our silos and stainless water tanks is carried out under ISO 9001:2015 certified processes, with welders qualified to ASME IX & AWS D1.1 standards.
Applications of Our Silos & Steel Tanks
Silos and tanks are used across various industries, and LITCO stands out for its ability to customize storage solutions. No matter the application, our team designs each solution to match the specific requirements of both the client and the stored materials.

- Construction & Infrastructure: Cement silos, aggregate storage silos.

- Agriculture: Grain silos, feed storage tanks.

- Water & Utilities: Stainless steel water storage tanks, firefighting water tanks (NFPA 22 compliant).

- Industrial: Chemical tanks, process vessels, pressurized storage tanks.

- Oil & Gas: Hydrocarbon storage tanks designed to API standards.
Quality Assurance & Testing
Every tank and silo undergoes rigorous quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) processes to ensure they meet industry standards, function reliably, and maintain optimal safety and performance over time.

-NDT Methods: Ultrasonic Testing (UT), Radiography (RT), Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI).

- Hydrostatic & Pneumatic Testing: Conducted per ASME & API requirements.

- MTC Documentation: Mill Test Certificates (MTCs) provided for all raw materials.

- Third-Party Inspection: Available with BV, SGS, or client-nominated inspectors.
