About Saicorp

Our history, vision and goals are squarely focused on you — our customer.

Overview

Steel fabrication, held to a UL standard.

Saicorp manufactures customized trailers, mobile tankers, UL-listed fuel tanks and pressure vessels for a diverse range of industries — defence, power, oil & gas, pumps and compressors among them.

We build from a well-equipped manufacturing base in Peenya, Bangalore, and hold UL listings of UL-142 & ULC-S601 for the USA and Canada.

With over two decades in production and an uncompromising commitment to excellence, we achieve total customisation of tankers and trailers — designed and constructed to a standard that will often outlast the towing vehicle.

The Saicorp Process

From brief to commissioning.

Our manufacturing process was laid out in consultation with experts and refined on feedback from existing customers — then handed to a dedicated production team.

  1. Step 01

    Consult & scope

    We map your duty cycle, capacities and compliance needs into a clear brief.

  2. Step 02

    Design & engineer

    In-house design turns the brief into drawings, load cases and specifications.

  3. Step 03

    Fabricate & test

    Precision fabrication, then dynamic and pressure testing before sign-off.

  4. Step 04

    Deliver & support

    Commissioning, documentation and after-sales support for the asset’s life.

Surface protection

Corrosion is designed out, not painted over.

Every machined and fabricated item is protected from corrosive environments — structural steel members are painted, while machine components, bolts, nuts and washers are electro- or spray-galvanized.

Paint thickness is measured at random locations selected by the purchaser's representative, in their presence. Primers and paints are procured only from approved manufacturers.

Painting scheme

  1. 01

    Surface preparation

    Surfaces made completely free of oil, grease, dirt, dust and other matter before primer.

  2. 02

    Primer — 2 coats epoxy

    Applied immediately after dust removal. Dry film thickness not less than 30 microns.

  3. 03

    Finish — 2 coats

    40 microns DFT epoxy / polyurethane colour paint.

  4. 04

    Verification

    Thickness measured at random locations chosen by the purchaser’s representative.

Facilities

A shop floor built for scale and precision.

Design, manufacturing and testing under one roof in Peenya, Bangalore.

Design Facilities

Saicorp are experts in design, manufacture and maintenance. With over two decades in production and an uncompromising commitment to excellence, we achieve total customisation of tankers and trailers — a tailored service delivered within the agreed timeframe and price point.

Our design house works collaboratively with clients to understand their specific requirements and philosophy. The optimum design is rarely the most elaborate — it is an elegant, simple design that performs the desired function. We draw on research and in-house knowledge of over 1,000 project life cycles to balance function, aesthetics, ergonomics, manufacturability and cost.

Design optimises for

  • Function
  • Aesthetics
  • Ergonomics
  • Manufacturability
  • Cost

Manufacturing Facilities

Robust manufacturing capability — cutting-edge design, development, manufacturing and logistics support — means customers get the benefit of the very latest specialized manufacturing processes, culminating in significantly reduced lead-times and on-time delivery.

Our plant carries the equipment needed to manufacture consistent-quality products at all times.

Plant & equipment

  • Adjustable Automatic Welding RotatorsAutomated seam control
  • Plate Shearing Machine4.2 m × 10 mm capacity
  • Press Brake4.2 m × 10 mm capacity
  • Shell Rolling Machine10 mm × 2000 mm capacity
  • Accur Shear & Accur PressPrecision cutting and forming
  • Automatic Welding PositionersConsistent weld quality

Testing Facilities

Saicorp ensures every single axle assembly and running part is dynamically tested for speeds over 100 km/h in a specifically designed machine. Our tests subject the axles to conditions far tougher than those encountered in normal operations — the accelerated wear and tear reveals any potential weakness that might otherwise take many years of service to appear.

There is no substitute for road tests under actual trailer operating conditions. These provide final validation of the rig findings, and confirm that reliability and durability in the field will match expectations.

100 KM/H

Every axle assembly and running part is dynamically tested beyond this — before it ships.

Validation sequence

  1. 01Dynamic rig test beyond 100 km/h
  2. 02Accelerated wear & tear analysis
  3. 03Road test under actual operating conditions

Quality

Certified, tested, documented.

Quality at all times isn't a slogan — it's UL listings, dynamic testing and disciplined manufacturing practice.

  • UL-142

    Standard for aboveground flammable- and combustible-liquid steel tanks (USA).

  • ULC-S601

    Canadian standard for shop-fabricated aboveground steel tanks.

  • NFPA 20

    Compliant tanks for stationary fire-pump installations.
