Complete In-House Fabrication of 10,000-gallon Molasses Storage Tank

One of our feed mill customers needed a round molasses storage tank that would hold 10,000 gallons. To hold that much, we designed a tank that’s 20 feet high and 10 feet in diameter. The project required that we roll 10′ sheets of steel with our pinch roll. This was a Maple Grove Enterprises project from start to finish. We designed the tank for its custom application, designed and fabricated the OSHA-approved custom outside safety ladder, fabricated the tank, and installed it at the feed mill.

This was a total team effort from initial design concept through fabrication, with communication flowing back and forth between designer and fabricators throughout the entire project. Our customer was onsite during installation and is ecstatic with the results!

Watch a video of our crew flipping half the tank on its side so two pieces can be welded together.
