We manage milk tank delivery and installation from transport through to commissioning. This includes delivery, crane lifting, positioning and on-site placement of stainless steel milk tanks and milk cooling tanks, planned to fit farm access conditions and minimise operational disruptions.
Installation support covers plumbing and electrical integration, ensuring tanks connect seamlessly to existing pumps, pipelines, and milking systems. Each tank is commissioned and tested for cooling efficiency, agitation function, and hygiene compliance before handover. For remote or hard-to-access areas, we coordinate with local trades to provide safe, efficient installation. This start-to-finish approach reduces downtime, mitigates risk, and allows farmers to focus on production rather than logistics.
