TecTank Bolted Epoxy

CST® is the Industry Standard

TecTank by CST’s dry bulk and liquid storage tanks are the industry standard for epoxy-coated, bolted steel storage solutions.

CST’s TecTank is the only tank supplier in the world that provides both a flat panel, jack-built tank and chime panel, scaffold-built tank capable of safely and economically being installed on every diverse site condition imaginable. Our proprietary coating technology — providing maximum corrosion resistance and long tank life — results in the finest epoxy coating available in the industry. 

TecTank systems offer experienced, fast and economical construction with a proven track record of storage success. With over 250,000 epoxy-coated tanks in 125 countries performing in thousands of applications, no other company can match CST’s design, manufacturing and construction experience.  

TecTank systems are custom engineered to your exact specifications, designed using state-of-the-art CAD and stress-modeling tools, and then manufactured in one of our seven ISO 9001:2015-certified manufacturing facilities located in the U.S., Europe and Asia. Our dedicated project management teams ensure a smooth purchasing, manufacturing and delivery process while providing a single point of contact throughout the engineering, fabrication and construction processes.

TecTank Flat Panel Dry Bulk Storage Systems

CST’s TecTank FP® design includes an optimized bolt pattern, increased steel thickness, reduced hardware and fewer penetration points. The jackable flat panel bolted design of TecTank FP is superior to competitive designs in the dry bulk industry and is available in short lead time, pre-configured models, as well as fully customizable designs. Pre-configured models are available in four standard sizes and with 50 percent lead time improvement vs. non-pre-configured chime models.

Standard Pre-Configured Sizes
  • 600T – 9,858 cubic foot working capacity
  • 2000T – 40,489 cubic foot working capacity
  • 3000T – 62,591 cubic foot working capacity
  • 5000T – 103,468 cubic foot working capacity

Lead time is within 10 weeks of order. TecTank FP features the industry-leading leak-free gasket, available in either EPDM or Viton (temps to 450°F).

TecTank Liquid Storage Systems

TecTank for liquid storage delivers high quality at the lowest cost per gallon.

  • Low up-front costs
  • Longer tank life = lower life-cycle costs = quicker ROI
  • Fast tank construction saves you time and money

Trico Bond Epoxy + CST’s Superior Coating Process

Coatings are the first line of defense in protecting the integrity of your assets. CST’s Bolted Epoxy TecTanks feature Trico Bond EP (Epoxy Powder) Coating, using our proprietary OptiBond process. This coating delivers outstanding performance and is the industry standard for epoxy durability. It resists corrosion, UV breakdown and abrasion. Trico Bond SD (Severe Duty) provides extra protection where longer life cycles are required.

The OptiBond coating system is derived from years of in-field experience and performance data. While other companies make claims about their proprietary epoxy products, CST continues to invest in the OptiBond process to ensure it delivers superior performance and long-lasting results.

With more than 130 years of experience and over 250,000 field-tested applications around the world, no other manufacturer comes close to our level of knowledge of how to apply epoxy coatings and how they endure in some of the harshest environments.

Benefits of Factory-Applied Coatings

Using our proprietary OptiBond process, CST applies all coatings in an ISO 9001:2015-certified facility under controlled environmental conditions.

  • This eliminates weather factors that occur when applying coatings in the field after constructing a tank.
  • Each step in our factory-applied coating process is carefully monitored.
  • Completion of the tank can be performed in as much as one-third the time as alternative materials and methods. On-site weather delays are eliminated, service can commence earlier and ROI begins sooner.
