Sulfuric Acid Tank Service & Support

Built for one of the toughest acids.

Sulfuric acid is highly corrosive and unforgiving of weak points in a tank’s lining, fittings, or shell. Custom Tank Innovations inspects, repairs, refurbishes, and customizes tank containers in sulfuric acid service — working around existing acid-resistant linings and materials to keep your equipment safe and compliant.

How it works

Service that protects the lining.

Working on an acid-service tank takes an extra level of care. Here’s how we approach every job.
01

Assess

We inspect the tank — including the condition of the existing lining — and note anything that affects the scope of work.
02

Plan Around the Lining

Repairs, inspection, refurbishment, or customization is scoped to avoid damaging or contaminating the lining wherever possible.
03

Perform the Service

Our welders, technicians, and inspectors complete the requested work using methods appropriate for acid-service equipment.
04

Document & Coordinate

We document lining condition, and if relining is needed, help you coordinate that work with a qualified specialist.
