When people think about reducing the cost of a pressure vessel project, they often focus on fabrication. It’s an understandable assumption, but many of the biggest savings are made much earlier. The decisions taken during the design stage have a significant influence on how straightforward a vessel is to manufacture, inspect, test and deliver. A…

LTi Vessco has secured a major contract from Mitsubishi Heavy Industries to manufacture a key process vessel for Heidelberg Materials’ Padeswood Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) project in North Wales, one of the UK’s most significant industrial decarbonisation developments, and the first carbon capture plant for cement in the UK. The award will see the…

When people think about pressure vessels, they often focus on the finished product. They see the fabrication, the welding, the testing, and the engineering expertise that goes into creating equipment designed to perform in demanding environments. What is less visible, but equally important, is traceability. In safety-critical industries, confidence doesn’t come from assumptions. It comes…

When people think about pressure vessels, they often picture the finished product sitting on a plant floor or integrated into a larger industrial process. What’s less visible is the amount of engineering, fabrication control, inspection, and testing required to get it there – especially when the vessel is bespoke and intended for regulated industries. In…

It’s easy to think of low-volume manufacturing as simply doing less of the same thing. Fewer units, smaller runs, reduced output.In reality, it’s not just a scaled-down version of mass production. It’s a completely different way of working.For businesses operating in safety-critical industries, where bespoke pressure vessels and specialist equipment are the norm, low-volume manufacturing…

Pressure vessels are rarely off-the-shelf products. In most industrial environments they are designed and manufactured to suit a specific process, operating condition, and installation requirement. Whether the vessel will be used in energy, utilities, chemicals, or other heavy industries, every project starts with a clear technical specification. For manufacturers, quoting a custom pressure vessel means…

The UK’s critical infrastructure depends on engineered systems that operate reliably, continuously, and safely under demanding conditions. From nuclear power generation and water treatment to energy production and utilities, pressure vessels play a fundamental role in enabling these systems to function as intended. Pressure vessel manufacturing is not a peripheral activity in this context –…

In safety-critical industries, pressure vessels are not simply fabricated components – they are engineered containment systems designed to operate under sustained internal pressure, thermal cycling, and, in many cases, aggressive process conditions. The integrity of these systems depends heavily on one factor above all others: precision welding and controlled fabrication. For regulated sectors such as…

In regulated industries, precision is paramount. Whether producing cryogenic vessels for medical imaging, fabricating components for clean-energy systems, or delivering pressure-rated assemblies, each weld and every process stage must meet demanding standards of consistency and performance. Automation and robotics now play a central role in achieving this level of reliability. At LTi Vessco, our Bridgend-based…
