Key benefits

Why Buyers Choose This Specification

Clapboard Against Surge in Transit

A partly full tank on a moving truck surges hard enough to affect braking. The internal clapboard is what breaks that movement up.

Insulated to Hold Temperature on the Road

Double layer insulated construction keeps milk cold between the farm and the factory, which is where quality is most often lost.

CIP Ball and Aseptic Breath Cap Fitted

The tank is cleaned in place between loads and vents through a filtered cap rather than open to the road. Both are standard components.

Support Saddle and Lifting Ears

The tank is built to be mounted on a truck chassis and lifted off again, which is what makes it a transport tank rather than a storage tank on wheels.

Application scenarios

Where It Is Used

  • Collecting milk from individual dairy farms
  • Transporting milk from collection centres to the processing plant
  • Moving milk between plants or processing areas
  • Milk collection routes calling at several farmers
  • Transporting other liquid food products in bulk
  • Rural collection where processing is distant from the farm
Who it is for

The Buyers This Product Suits

Milk Collection Operators

The tank is designed to sit on a truck and collect from farms or from different farmers on a route.

Dairy Plants Running Their Own Collection

Owning the transport tank keeps control of both the temperature record and the cleaning regime.

Collection Centres

Moving aggregated milk onward to the factory is exactly the duty this tank is built for.

Problems it solves

What It Fixes

Temperature Rise Between Farm and Factory

Double layer insulated construction is what keeps milk cold across the journey.

Load Surge While Driving

The clapboard divides the tank internally so a part-full load does not move as one mass.

Cleaning a Road Tank Properly

A CIP cleaning ball is fitted as standard, so the tank is cleaned in place rather than by hand.

How It Ships And What Comes With It

Packing And Loading

Shipping volume for this item depends on the configuration and capacity you select, so no fixed container figure is published. Confirm the specification and the destination and a loading plan is issued with the quotation, rather than a figure we cannot support.

Documentation On File

Sourcing And Inspection

This product is supplied through TrueGlow Imaging, working with manufacturing partners whose facilities are visited and verified rather than taken on trust. In-process quality control and delivery supervision are available so goods are inspected before the container is sealed. Certifications quoted on this page are those stated on the product specification and belong to that product range rather than to our trading entity, so ask for the certificate covering your specific item.

Handling guide

Getting It Right First Time

Step 1

Size the tank against the collection route volume, not the largest single farm.

Step 2

Confirm the truck chassis rating for a full tank before ordering.

Step 3

Check that the support saddle matches your chassis mounting arrangement.

Step 4

Connect the CIP ball into the depot cleaning circuit at commissioning.

Step 5

Record milk temperature at loading and unloading on every run.

Guides That Cover This Product

Pasteurisation Versus UHT for Liquid Dairy

Three thermal profiles, three different machines and three different distribution models. Which one your plant needs is decided by shelf life and cold chain, not by capacity.

Specifying a CIP System That Actually Cleans

A cleaning cycle that runs without flow cleans nothing and reports success. Conductivity monitoring, flow switches and return pump selection are what make CIP verifiable.
