The Premier Tank

In the early 1990's the UK food industry's needs for hygienic tank transport were not being satisfied. In 1995 we developed the award winning ART 2000 to provide a vessel comprising unique technical and hygiene features. This tank rapidly established the benchmark for the UK food industry.

In 2001, a development team headed by our Technical Director, Bernie Hollund, completed an exhaustive research into the future direction and demands of both the Food Industry and the H.S.E.The feedback received was incorporated into the new ART tanker specification leading to the commisioning our first eight "Premier Tanker" introduced in early 2002. This now forms the standard for all current new build tankers.

Amongst the key features are:-

  • Ergonomic design for ease of use.
  • Full ground-level operation available for bottom loading operations.
  • Ground-level operated all-round tank top fencing.
  • Full 28 tonne payload capability.
  • High speed closed fill capable of loading 28 tonnes in 23 minutes.

In our position as the UK's premier carrier of liquid foodstuffs, our pursuit of product excellence will continue to define the industry's Hygiene and Safety standards.
