External access platforms for tanks
TLC provides comprehensive external access platforms for tanks, offering safe and convenient access to various levels of industrial tanks. Our systems include spiral staircases, straight staircases, technical ladders, and a variety of working platforms, allowing for efficient maintenance, inspection, and servicing of tanks. These solutions are essential for operations in sectors such as chemical, petrochemical, water treatment, and energy industries, ensuring safe working conditions at elevated heights.
- The main function of tank access platforms is to provide a walkway for servicing the tanks
- Depending on the needs (access, communication), these platforms can be placed on, around and between the tanks
- Implementation in accordance with the documentation prepared by TLC designers or documentation provided by the Client
- Consultation of regulations and standards, as well as professional assembly services
- The additional equipment depends on usage conditions, including railings, steel stairs, technical ladders, and others
Key features
- Custom design to client needs
Each project carried out by TLC is fully adapted to the specific needs of the client. We offer flexibility in design, which means our walkway systems can be tailored to different types of tanks, ranging from small, compact units to large, high-capacity storage containers. - High corrosion resistance
Our systems are built from materials that resist atmospheric and chemical factors. Depending on the specific installation, we offer structures made of galvanized steel, ensuring long service life even in harsh environments. Additionally, anti-corrosion coatings can be applied for extra protection against external elements. - Compliance with safetystandards
All our communication systems are designed in accordance with international standards, such as PN ISO 14122. This means that our solutions meet strict safety requirements, ensuring stable and secure access to tanks at various heights. - Advanced safety solutions
Our staircases and platforms are equipped with numerous safety features, such as handrails, protective cages, anti-slip steps, and safety barriers. These solutions are essential, especially in industries where access to tanks occurs at significant heights or in challenging operational conditions.
Stairs solutions for tanks
TLC offers comprehensive stair solutions for industrial tanks, combining safety and high functionality.
- Tank staircases provide secure access to rooftops, equipped with dual-side safety railings and anti-slip steps. Made from durable steel, they are hot-dip galvanized and coated to resist harsh weather conditions, meeting building regulations.
- Spiral stairs are a space-efficient option that ensures safe access to tank rooftops, featuring safety railings and anti-slip steps to enhance safety.
- Helicoidal stairs are designed for technical inspections of tanks and access to control instruments. Engineered from robust materials and adhering to strict safety standards, they ensure reliability and longevity in demanding industrial environments. With years of experience, TLC guarantees top-quality, precision, and innovative solutions in every stair project.
Technical ladders
Technical ladders, bolted or welded, are used to ensure easy movement between levels of plants, halls or industrial, storage and commercial buildings. Our metal technical ladders are not only safe but also extremely durable.
Our metal technical ladders can be used on both industrial buildings and various technical constructions thanks to a TLC developed system of fixers and construction solutions.
- Lightweight and modular construction
- Easy assembly
- Easy attaching to walls and constructions
- Comfortable rungs intervals and ladder width
- Protective cage
- Use of stainless steel or galvanized steel
- Anti-slip rungs
Steel platforms
Steel platforms are one of the key elements of access system. They also determine either the beginning of a staircase flight or its end, or are used to connect two points. When it comes to multi-storey buildings, platforms separate metal stair flights between levels.
Steel platforms are generally used to provide free and safe access to rooms or storeys.
- Traffic possible in several directions
- Give possibility to change stairs direction
- Increase the strength of stairs
- Possibility to install different fillings
TLC design and estimate departments
With our in-house design department, we can create custom designs tailored to various types of large tanks.
Our research and development team is continuously enhancing existing solutions and developing new innovations. TLC is also proficient in designing and manufacturing spiral stairs, arched stairs, and hybrid structures. The design team focuses on reducing the need for external brackets, buildings, or additional support systems.
The estimate department ensures prompt responses to client inquiries, delivering accurate project cost estimates and timelines. By considering crucial factors like materials, they help clients make informed decisions. With their expertise, clients receive comprehensive and reliable project evaluations, allowing for efficient planning. The close collaboration between departments ensures seamless execution and customer satisfaction, from the initial quotation to final project delivery.
