Grotto has a long history of supplying tanks to the food and beverage industry. An initial focus in the fishing industry has grown into a much wider product range, which has included the manufacture of such diverse vessels as mixing and milk storage vessels, yeast dryers, flour silos, retorts, screw conveyors, ovens, dryers, deodorizers, cyclones, packing tables, cookers and canning equipment. The company is now focused on the design and manufacture of high quality, cost effective tank solutions to the dairy, and general beverage industries, for clients throughout South Africa and the greater African market.

Dairy tanks comprise a significant portion of the company's business. The company has manufactured cheese baths, mixing tanks, yoghurt tanks and milk silos in sizes up to 150,000 litres. Most silos are supplied complete with fully welded cladding, insulation, and automated dimple jacket cooling systems. All equipment is finished to a high, non-scratch hygienic finish.

The company also has a sound track record in the manufacture of a wide range of pressure vessels, and a broad range of design, manufacturing and project management skills are available to clients wishing to customize vessels to their own specific requirements.

The stringent quality requirements in the manufacture of dairy equipment are well known to our trained staff of engineers and artisans.
