Stress-Free Supply and Installation

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.

Finding the Right Capacity for Your Application

Selecting the correct milk tank is critical for maintaining milk quality and operational efficiency. Capacity depends on:

 

  • Herd size and average milk yield
  • Milking frequency, daily production volume & milk flow rate
  • Milk collection schedules and transport timing

 

Typical Capacity Ranges & Use Cases:

  • Small capacity tanks: Smaller herds, once-daily collection
  • Medium capacity tanks: Medium-sized herds, standard collection schedules
  • Large capacity tanks: Large herds, extended collection intervals

 

Detailed size and specification guides are available to help you compare options and self-qualify before enquiring.
