Hello Customate Community,
As we step into March, I am excited to share the latest updates from Customate Solutions. We continue to push boundaries, delivering innovative solutions and celebrating key milestones.

Successful Installation: Fabrication of a Cylindrical Blood Tank System with Blow Pot
I’m proud to announce the successful installation of a bespoke blood tank system, featuring the fabrication of a cylindrical blood tank integrated with a blow pot for enhanced efficiency. This project was designed to improve fluid handling, durability, and hygiene in our client’s operations.
Project Highlights:
- Cylindrical Tank Fabrication: Engineered for optimal storage and flow, ensuring efficient handling of blood products.
- Enhanced Accessibility: The system was designed for ease of maintenance and operational efficiency.
- Upgraded Materials: We replaced outdated pipework with stainless steel, ensuring better hygiene and longevity.
- Optimised Processing: The blow pot integration allows for precise material transfer, minimising waste and improving overall system performance.
This installation is a testament to our commitment to providing tailored engineering solutions that meet the highest industry standards.
Showcasing Our Bespoke Products: Water Tanks & Hoppers
In addition to our successful blood tank system installation, we have been busy designing and building custom water tanks and hoppers. These bespoke solutions showcase our ability to create high-quality, durable, and efficient storage and processing equipment tailored to our clients’ specific needs.
Why Our Water Tanks & Hoppers Stand Out:
- Robust & Hygienic Designs: Built with stainless steel for superior durability and compliance with hygiene standards.
- Tailored to Client Needs: Each unit is customised to fit specific operational requirements, ensuring maximum efficiency.
- Versatile Applications: Suitable for a variety of industries, including food processing, manufacturing, and waste management.
Our commitment to engineering excellence drives us to continuously innovate, and these latest projects are a testament to our bespoke manufacturing capabilities.
Ongoing Innovation: Advancing Automation
At Customate Solutions, we are always looking for ways to enhance efficiency, and March is no exception. We’re excited to be working on an innovative automation project that will revolutionize our client’s operational processes.
Smart Process Optimization
- We are integrating a fully automated material handling system designed to streamline operations and reduce manual intervention.
- The system features real-time monitoring, AI-driven analytics, and precision-controlled processing, ensuring optimal efficiency and reliability.
- By embracing cutting-edge automation, our clients can achieve higher throughput while maintaining quality and consistency.
Stay tuned for further updates as we move closer to project completion!
This year marks 25 years of innovation, excellence, and dedication at Customate Solutions! Over the past two and a half decades, we have grown from a small engineering firm into a leader in industrial automation and bespoke engineering solutions.
