We are Industry Tank Pioneers
Our company has a strong legacy in the storage tank industry. Some of the notable accomplishments, as a silo manufacturer, include the following:
- We were the first in the industry to provide flat panel construction and powder-on-powder epoxy coated tanks.
- We were the first to employ 1/2” steel plate in AWWA designs, and to produce self-supporting steel decks up to 60’ in diameter.
- We were the first to design hoppers for dry storage in straight seam tanks.
- We developed a way to provide truck drive-thru and large openings in skirted tanks, allowing the use of building jacks that do not require scaffolding.
As the first bolted tank and silo manufacturer to employ state-of-the-art technology, AST provides a superior level of flexibility in design selection and production.
We Offer Unique Storage Tank Designs
When AST Storage challenged the traditional API design of the past, it blazed new industry standards for liquid tanks and dry storage silos. Today we continue to eclipse manufacturing norms as we tailor specific designs for your application needs.
We refuse to be limited by the convenience of mass production, therefore, our staff of licensed, independent engineers continues to base our designs on quality, efficiency, and the needs of our customers with all types of storage tanks and their designs. We stay true to structural integrity, loading capacities and seismic standards.
We're Committed to Quantity and Efficiency
AST Storage constructs with industry standard 116” x 58” coverage sidewall sheets. Other manufacturers use smaller, non-standard coverage sheets, which results in a 10% to 22% increase in sheets of steel to achieve the same capacity as our quality construction.
Efficiency is realized when you have fewer pieces to fabricate, fewer to coat, fewer to load, fewer to unload, and fewer to install. AST Storage is the clear choice when maximum quality and efficiency is desired.
