01/09/2015 Lipp Systems Ltd
Lipp GmbH has launched a new UK sales operation. Lipp is one of the leading tank system manufacturers in Europe, having been in existence since the 1950's. It has patented over 170 different manufacturing, material construction and tank design technologies, supplying to a number of market sectors including; water, pharmaceuticals, oil & gas, farming and the renewables industry.Lipp is offering a comprehensive design, supply and manufacture service to the UK, their experience in the development and supply of tank systems is extensive, with successful operations in 80 countries worldwide and over 10,000 tanks installed.
Manuel Lipp, MD, said; "We are aware of the potential growth in the UK, such as the anaerobic digestion market and the recent Ofwat changes to the water utility market. Lipp have installed over 500 AD plants around the world and are regulated as a water expert in the European market, so we feel that we have a lot of experience to offer and innovative tank systems that will benefit the UK".
Lipp have developed a number of unique products such as our Verinox™ stainless steel composite material. Utilising both galvanised and stainless steel in a layered construction to provide a stainless steel tank liner without the expense of full stainless steel tank walls. The Verinox™ material allows for different grades of Stainless Steel to be selected to line the tank dependent upon substrate chemistry and aggression requirements.
In addition to Verinox™, the Lipp tank manufacture process is also unique. Utilising a spiral form, double seal system, the tanks are created on site using Lipp's own automated tank construction system. The tanks are built as a continuous spiral wall that 'grows' from the ground up. Thereby providing quick construction times, reduced labour costs and minimised high level scaffold work. The double seal system adds to the tank construction integrity and ensures gas tight seals with a completely smooth interior surface.
Martin Grant, UK Marketing and Sales Manager added, "in addition to Lipp's extensive product range, we recognise that the many years of experience that has been developed through their continuous R&D programme will enable us to offer design and development services that are unrivalled in the UK market. For example, Lipp have many AD plants with clients in Germany that have successfully been in operation for over 35 years, longer than the majority of the UK AD market has been in existence."
There are other applications that will be of relevance to the UK, such as re-lining concrete tanks to extend tank life or increase storage capacity. The Lipp spiral tank construction method enables a complete stainless or galvanised tank liner to be lowered into a concrete tank; thereby reducing repair and maintenance on older tanks or the considerable expense of tank demolition and re-build.
