Truff Tank Lining & Repair

COVAC Case Study

Client: Cheese Factory
Project Brief: The Internal Preparation and Relining of 1 No. Steel Truff Tank
System Specification: Acothane DW Solvent Free Polyurethane
Completion Date: 2011
Guarantee: 15 Years
COVAC Contract Ref: 1049

1 No. Truff Tank sized at approximately 10m x 10m x 5m high. This tank also has an internal, steel, divisional wall, effectively, splitting the tank into 2 No. compartments, each sized at approximately 10m x 5m x 5m.

The internal surfaces of the tank had been previously painted with non (WRAS / DWI) approved Bitumen which had approached the end of its useful life, due to sub-film corrosion, non conformity and general deterioration. If left untreated, the internal surfaces would continue to be at risk from bacterial growth including Legionella, Pseudomonas and Biofilm; this can lead to further deterioration in the tank’s surface structure and contamination of the down services with the supply of unhygienic water to the outlets. The tank was relined by COVAC with a coating approved for use with drinking water and a 15 year guarantee was given to the Client.

Testimonials

Covac have carried out a professional and extremely excellent treatment of our on site bulk water tank which now will allow this tank to be utilised for a number more years.

Covac are one the best companies i have worksed with and their works are first class.

Yarwood, Lee
Covac undertook the task to 'reline' one of our hot water tanks, roughly 5m x 5m x 4.5m. This involved blast cleaning the tank, then applying epoxy lining to the tank.

The Covac team on site were fantastic, they dealt with issues that occurred efficiently & worked through the task quickly & professionally.

Parr, Ashley
Covac always do a great job. Very proffesional attitude, great work and finish to what they do. Wouldn't use anyone else.

John Meadows
Yet again Covac has proved their skill and expertise in meeting problems head on and resolving them within the agreed programme, despite a much larger scope of works! Thanks again to the whole team on site and in the office for making a very difficult task stress free - Highly regarded expert team and 110% recommended to anyone looking for tank refurbishment/relining works.
