Container Manufacturing FAQ
What container types can you manufacture?
We manufacture storage containers, shipping containers, process containers, reagent containers, sealed containers, pressure-rated containers, and insulated containers. Each design is optimised for its specific application and environmental requirements.
What materials are best for corrosive fluid containers?
Stainless steel 316 is the industry standard for corrosive fluid containers — superior corrosion resistance compared to 304. For extreme chemical environments, Inconel or titanium are available. All welds and joints are engineered for complete fluid containment.
What tolerances can you hold on container dimensions?
CNC machined containers hold dimensional tolerances of ±0.05mm on internal features and ±0.1mm on overall dimensions. For pressure-rated containers, critical sealing surfaces are machined to ±0.01mm with CMM verification.
What is the typical lead time for custom containers?
Simple stainless steel containers: 3–4 weeks. Complex containers with internal features: 4–6 weeks. Pressure-rated or specially engineered containers: 6–8 weeks. Lead times depend on material availability and complexity.
Can you manufacture pressure-rated containers?
Yes. We design and manufacture containers rated to specific pressure specifications. All pressure vessels are engineered to relevant standards, tested, and certified. Specify your pressure rating and fluid type on your design.
Do you offer surface finishing for containers?
Yes. Surface finishes include polishing (for purity and cleanability), passivation (for stainless steel corrosion resistance), electropolishing (for ultra-smooth surfaces), and chemical passivation.
