Parallelepipedic tank for wine processing

Streamline your wine-making processes with a versatile tank designed for both red and white wines, offering efficient temperature control and optimal conditions for fermentation, maceration, and stabilization.

Controls Temperature and Enhances Wine Fermentation

The SP parallelepipedic tank from The SERAP Group is a versatile solution tailored for wineries and wine producers aiming to enhance their fermentation and storage capabilities. Crafted from robust AISI 304 or AISI 316L stainless steel, this tank is available in standard capacities up to 21 hectoliters, with options for larger custom sizes. Its design facilitates efficient temperature management crucial for both red and white wines, aided by an optional polyurethane foam insulation to optimize energy use and prevent condensation. The stackable structure of the tank saves valuable space in processing facilities, and its maneuverability allows easy repositioning using standard handling equipment. For red wines, the tank provides capability for cap punching and hot maceration, whereas white wines benefit from rapid must settling and tartaric stabilization. The SP tank integrates seamlessly into batch or continuous operations, catering to the production of a wide range of wines including Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, and Pinot Noir. With its corrosion-resistant construction and ability to withstand high stresses, this tank is ideal for rigorous wine-making environments. The SP parallelepipedic tank supports your production line with reliable performance and energy efficiency, ensuring high-quality outcomes across diverse wine varieties.
