Fabrication and Storage Solutions for Sugar Mills

Sugar mills work to a crushing season. Everything from new tanks to repaired platforms has to be ready before the cane arrives, which makes reliable fabrication schedules essential.

Apex Engineers fabricates tanks, structural steel and mechanical components for sugar mills, working to drawings supplied by the mill or its engineering consultant.

Working with us

How we approach your project

We plan sugar mill work around the off season. Orders placed early give time for fabrication and inspection in our manufacturing facility, so that site installation can be completed well before crushing starts. Items are marked and packed in erection sequence to save time on site.

  1. Step 1

    Enquiry and engineering review

    We study your drawings, specifications or site details and confirm scope, quantities and the standards that apply.

  2. Step 2

    Design and approvals

    We prepare or review shop drawings and submit them for your approval before any material is cut.

  3. Step 3

    Planning and materials

    Materials are sourced to the specified grades and fabrication is scheduled around your site programme.

  4. Step 4

    Fabrication in our manufacturing facility

    Cutting, rolling, welding, FRP moulding, blast cleaning and coating happen under one roof on Multan Road, Lahore.

  5. Step 5

    Inspection and testing

    Dimensional, weld and coating checks and pressure tests are recorded, and you are welcome to inspect before dispatch.

  6. Step 6

    Installation and handover

    Our own crews install on site with safe working practices, then hand over records and support you in operation.
