Mobile stainless steel palletised tanks : practical and robust storage solutions

Practical and durable storage solutions

Mobile stainless steel tanks are an essential solution for storage and transport in the food, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries. Equipped with a palletized base, they are specifically designed for easy handling with a forklift — saving time and improving safety in production environments. Available by order only through the Arsilac catalog, these high-quality tanks are made from AISI 304 or 316 stainless steel and offered in a wide range of capacities, from 500 to 2,000 liters. Whether you're looking for a palletized stainless steel tank or a mobile tank with reinforced hygiene and mobility, our range meets the highest standards of cleanliness, durability, and industrial performance.



Why Choose a Mobile Palletized Stainless Steel Tank?


Easy and secure handling

Palletized stainless steel tanks are specifically designed for internal transport across industrial sites.
Thanks to their pallet-compatible base, they can be moved easily using a forklift or pallet jack — with no risk of tipping or deformation. This design streamlines logistics and reduces manual handling effort.

💡 Ideal for environments where mobility is essential: production lines, storage areas, and cleaning zones.



Hygiene and corrosion resistance

Made of AISI 304 stainless steel — or AISI 316 upon request — these tanks offer excellent resistance to corrosion, wear, and chemical exposure.
They are the go-to choice for the food and chemical industries, where robust, durable, and easy-to-clean containers are critical.

The cold-formed bottom, TIG-passivated welds, and smooth BA (Bright Annealed) internal finish ensure a seamless, hygienic surface — ideal for processes requiring strict sanitary standards.


Versatile designs with specialized lids

Mobile palletized stainless steel tanks are available with several lid types, tailored to specific applications:

  • Dome lid with handle – for quick semi-open access
  • Floating lid with air seal – for adjustable sealing
  • Lever-lock lid – for optimal security during transport or processing

These options allow you to adapt the tank to your needs, whether for secure storage, product mixing, or safe movement.


Enhanced productivity and time savings

With easier transport, cleaning, and full drainage via butterfly or ball valves up to DN50, these mobile tanks help minimize production downtime and maintenance tasks. You gain efficiency and flow across your industrial processes.

faq sur la qualité des cuves inox industrielles

      1. Quelle est la différence entre une cuve inox palettisée et une cuve standard ?
        Une cuve inox palettisée possède une base adaptée au transport par chariot élévateur ou transpalette, ce qui facilite considérablement les déplacements internes sur site. Contrairement à une cuve fixe ou sur pieds, elle permet une mobilité optimisée sans besoin d’équipement de levage spécifique. Elle est idéale pour les ateliers, lignes de production ou laboratoires nécessitant des contenants transportables et sécurisés.

      2. Peut-on utiliser une cuve paletissable inox en environnement agroalimentaire ?
        Oui. Les cuves paletissables inox proposées sont fabriquées en acier inoxydable AISI 304, ou en AISI 316 sur demande, tous deux compatibles avec un usage agroalimentaire. Les finitions intérieures lisses (type BA) et les soudures TIG passivées assurent un haut niveau d’hygiène et une facilité de nettoyage, répondant aux exigences des normes sanitaires (HACCP, CE 1935/2004).

      3. Peut-on personnaliser les accessoires des cuves mobiles inox ?
        Oui. Les cuves peuvent être entièrement personnalisées selon leur usage : choix du type de couvercle (à levier, flottant, semi-ouvert), ajout d’un agitateur, installation d’un indicateur de niveau, système de lavage CIP, ou encore isolation thermique. Des raccords rapides, filetés ou sur-mesure peuvent aussi être intégrés.

      4. Quel est le délai moyen de fabrication et de livraison ?
        Le délai dépend du modèle, du volume souhaité et des options sélectionnées. En moyenne, la fabrication sur commande nécessite entre 2 et 6 semaines, auxquelles s’ajoutent les délais de transport selon la destination. Un conseiller peut fournir une estimation précise lors de la validation du projet.
