Pressure Vessels

At Holden's, we design and manufacture a wide variety of pressure vessels for research ,industrial and process applications for the food, drink, brewing, chemical and general manufacturing sectors for many leading UK based companies.

We have over 40 years experience of design and manufacturing both atmospheric and pressured vessels and our modern, easily accessible workshops, are equipped with overhead gantries and can handle vessels for most applications. Although much of our work is in Stainless Steel to meet stringent hygiene standards of the Food and Pharmaceutical industries, we also carry out Mechanical Services with materials such as Carbon Steel, Copper and Exotic Alloys such as Hastelloy.

The vessels are designed, manufactured and stamped in accordance with the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code. Welded or integrally machined pressure vessels are supplied with appropriate fittings and seals to meet customer needs and can be installed by our professional installation team.

Pressure vessels can be configured to include the following features:

  • Welded or integrally machined construction
  • Sliding seals for various research attachments such as mechanical pull rods
  • Special seals for electrochemical measurements
  • Attachments for crack growth measurement
  • Reducers for attachment to in-service piping

Where Vessels are too large or complex to be economically constructed entirely off site, we may complete the fabrication process on-site.

Vessels are designed and constructed to British standards BS5500, BS2654 and also ASME VIII, with all documentation to sent CE marking (pressure Equipment Directive).
