Atlantic Fabritech was formed and started fabricating rectangular tanks in February of 1992. In September of 1992, cylindrical tanks were added to the product line and were followed up with obround tanks (basement tanks) in February of 1993.

In a few short years, Atlantic Fabritech has become recognized as a leader in the lube tank industry with quality service and on-time deliveries.

On May 15, 2000, Atlantic Fabritech was approved by the Steel Tank Institute as a member to manufacture the Fireguard tank. We will provide the same quality service and on-time delivery that we are known for in the lube tank industry.

When your next project requires aboveground storage tanks for U.L. 80, UL 142, or UL 2085, the staff at Atlantic Fabritech will consider it a privilege to assist you with quotes and drawings.
