Tank & Vessel Lining & Inspection Services:
Drawing on years of international contracting experience in corrosion prevention treatments we offer a specialised, comprehensive tank lining service for the on-site lining for all types of industrial storage and process tanks, no matter how large or small.

Applying an internal tank lining to an existing or in-situ tank is always more cost-effective than replacing the tank and is certainly more environmentally friendly.

At SCGB we understand that the on-going purity of the contained product itself is your first and foremost priority

Water Tank Lining
The Approved Code of Practice and Guidance L8 (ACOP L8) states that to prevent and control the potential threat of Legionnaire's Disease certain steps can be taken, including:

• 57,(c) Avoiding the use of materials in the system that could harbour or provide nutrients for bacteria and other organisms.
• 57,(d) Keeping the system clean to avoid the build-up of sediments which may harbour bacteria (and also provide a nutrient source for them).
• 58,(f) Cleaning and disinfecting procedures

Brewery Tank Lining
Although many sites in the UK now have stainless steel tanks, recently we have been approached by a few breweries to make localised repairs to a number of carbon steel tanks that have epoxy, phenolic or vitreous glass linings.

It is a well-known fact that tanks or vessels used in breweries and other areas of the food and beverage industry with defective internal linings are more difficult to clean, can be prone to bacterial infection and could be putting your beer or product at risk of contamination.

International Tank Lining Service
For many years we have been offering an international tank lining service - tank coating service. As an established tank lining contractor we offer a comprehensive, economical and cost effective supply and installation service together with full on-site technical support to our clients, no matter where in the world they are located.
