Become a distribution partner
for an innovative tank building system
Add Nordweld System to your portfolio and offer tank contractors a safer, faster and more cost-efficient tank construction method.
Nordweld is a designer and manufacturer of an electromechanical tank building jacking system based on the top-down method.
The system enables work to be conducted entirely at ground level, supports a 30–40% reduction in construction time and eliminates the need for cranes and scaffolding in key process stages.
For whom?
Distribution companies
Industrial technology suppliers
Equipment brokers
Regional
integrators
Nordweld creates a clear business opportunity:
to represent a high-value, technically advanced system in a market driven by automation, labour shortages, safety requirements and pressure on project profitability.
A technology aligned with the tank construction market
Industrial tank construction is changing. Contractors need to reduce labour dependency, improve safety, shorten project schedules and deliver more predictable quality.
As traditional methods become harder to scale, the market is looking for technologies that support greater control, repeatability and efficiency in welded steel tank construction.
Nordweld responds directly to these market drivers
The system makes tank construction more controlled and mechanized.
For distribution partners, it offers a strong technical value proposition for contractors in demanding sectors such as oil and gas, LNG, petrochemicals, energy, water and wastewater, biogas, food processing and heavy industry.
What makes Nordweld different?
Electromechanical Lift Jack technology
Nordweld uses electromechanical Lift Jacks instead of hydraulic lifting systems.
This is a key differentiator in a market traditionally dominated by hydraulic solutions and gives distributors a precise technical argument in conversations with contractors and industrial decision-makers.
For distributors, this gives a clear technical argument:
- precise, synchronised lifting movement
- no hydraulic oil leakage risk
- stable operation in changing weather conditions
- lower maintenance complexity
- self-locking safety mechanism
- UL Certificate of Compliance
This allows partners to offer a system that is not just another lifting solution, but a differentiated technology platform for modern tank construction.
100% of work conducted at ground level
One of the strongest advantages of Nordweld is that the tank construction process is conducted entirely at ground level.
This is not only a safety feature. It is a business argument.
For contractors, ground-level operation reduces exposure to work-at-height risks, simplifies site organization and improves process control.
For distributors, it creates a clear value proposition for markets where
HSE requirements, insurance costs and labour availability
influence purchasing decisions.
Nordweld turns technology into measurable sales arguments:
reduced work-at-height exposure
improved safety positioning
simplified site workflow
possibility to work with smaller site team
lower dependency on scaffolding and work-at-height organization
more predictable project execution
stronger argumentation in regulated sectors
A system designed
for ROI-driven customers
Nordweld enables a 30–40% reduction in tank construction time compared with traditional methods.
This is one of the most important commercial arguments for a distribution partner. The system helps contractors increase project throughput, reduce labour hours, work with smaller site teams, limit crane and scaffolding costs, and improve competitiveness in tenders.
Key value drivers for the end market:
shorter tank construction time
reduced labour dependency and smaller site teams
improved repeatability and weld quality
mechanized circumferential welding from one controlled ground-level station
better project predictability
Two system models
for different tank construction needs
Nordweld is available in two main system configurations, allowing distribution partners to address different customer requirements within the field-erected steel tank market.
This gives distribution partners a structured offer that can be adapted to different technical scenarios, customer capabilities and project types.
Optimized logistics
for international distribution
Modular system transportable in 20’ HC containers
Nordweld has been designed with mobility and international deployment in mind.
The modular system can be transported in 20’ HC containers, supporting efficient logistics and simplified project mobilization.
- easier international transport
- simplified storage and handling
- fast mobilization for project-based demand
- suitability for regional distribution models
- reduced need for oversized transport
- strong fit for contractors working across multiple sites or countries
This makes Nordweld particularly attractive in markets where contractors operate across regions and require technology that can move efficiently from project to project.
Business advantages:
Integrated welding solutions
that increase project value
Nordweld can also support partners with complementary welding solutions
designed for controlled, repeatable tank construction processes.
Welding Station for Plate Track / vertical assembly
An automated container for vertical assembly and welding of sheet metal plates.
Hydraulic actuators lock two sheets in a vertical position and provide stable, uniform pressure along the weld joint, supporting precise alignment,repeatable weld quality and faster preparation.
Welding is performed inside an enclosed container, which protects the process from wind, rain and temperature fluctuations.
Automated Welding Station for circumferential tank welds
A dedicated welding container for high-quality circumferential welds on cylindrical tanks.
Welding components, the torch guiding system, control unit and supporting accessories are integrated within the container. During operation, the container remains fixed while the tank rotates, enabling a continuous and consistent weld from a controlled workstation.
For a distribution partner, these solutions expand the commercial scope from a lifting system to a more complete tank construction technology package.
More than equipment — a complete cooperation model
Sales, rental, training and technical support
Nordweld offers a flexible model based on both sales and rental.
This helps partners lower the entry barrier for contractors who want to test the technology before making a full investment.
As a distribution partner, you can offer different cooperation scenarios:
• system sales for contractors investing in their own tank building technology
• rental access for project-specific demand
• pilot use before full implementation
• technical training and implementation support
• supervision and service during project deployment
A flexible model that lowers the entry barrier and supports long-term adoption.
