Water Savings

Water Savings and Eco-Friendly Cleaning

La Garde Inox tanks are designed to offer exceptional water savings, with a reduction in consumption of up to 90%. Thanks to their smooth and polished interior surfaces, these tanks are much easier to clean than traditional models, requiring fewer harsh chemicals and reducing the time employees spend on this task. This translates not only into a direct reduction in costs related to water and cleaning products but also into a safer working environment. The time spent in confined spaces is reduced, which decreases risks for employees. In sum, this simplicity of maintenance and these considerable savings make La Garde Inox tanks not only environmentally friendly but also more profitable and safer for vineyards.

Energy Saving

Ultra-Efficient Cooling for Optimal Fermentations

Temperature control is essential in the fermentation process, and La Garde Inox tanks excel in this area thanks to their innovative cooling belt. Unlike traditional jacket cooling systems, this belt offers a larger contact surface with the glycol, allowing for faster and more uniform cooling. With thicker walls and a design that improves thermal efficiency, these tanks reduce energy consumption by up to 50%. The consistent distribution of temperature ensures optimal fermentation stability, preventing unwanted heat spikes. This advanced cooling system not only reduces energy costs but also produces higher-quality wine by maintaining ideal fermentation conditions throughout the process.

Space savings

Optimized Space, Maximized Production

The square tanks of La Garde Inox allow for optimized use of space in wine cellars, with an improvement of up to 22% compared to cylindrical tanks. This space optimization is crucial for vineyards where every square meter counts. It allows for increased production capacity without having to invest in costly building or infrastructure extensions. This space gain is especially important for producers seeking to maximize their yield in existing facilities. With square tanks, every centimeter is used optimally, which translates directly into increased productivity and, consequently, vineyard revenues.

Superior Quality Through Optimized Extraction

The shape of La Garde Inox tanks, in addition to offering space optimization, allows for improved extraction of aromas and tannins. With up to 15% more contact between the wine and the marc compared to round tanks, these tanks promote more homogeneous fermentation and better extraction of aromatic compounds. This results in superior wine quality, with richer aromas and better structure. By increasing not only the quantity but also the quality of the wine produced, La Garde Inox tanks meet the requirements of winemakers concerned with standing out through the excellence of their products. This competitive advantage allows vineyards to offer more refined wines while optimizing their yield, thus strengthening their position in the market.

Robustness, Safety, and Optimized for Earthquake Resistance

La Garde Inox tanks are designed for optimal earthquake resistance, thanks to advanced seismic analysis that enables them to withstand significant ground movement, even in high-risk scenarios. Reinforced welds and a robust design minimize the risk of damage during seismic events, ensuring long-term structural integrity. These tanks meet seismic safety requirements, and their durability is further enhanced by resistance to hydrostatic pressures, making them a secure investment for wineries located in seismically active regions.

The square shape of the tank, combined with an interior polish finish of pharmaceutical quality, provides two major advantages. These features improve worker safety by reducing the time spent in confined spaces during cleaning, offering a comprehensive solution that combines resilience and safety.
