Adler Tank Rentals

What Adler Tank Rentals does

Adler Tank Rentals, now operating as Ironclad Environmental Solutions following its 2025 combination with Mersino and Global Pump, is a U.S. national provider of rental liquid storage, pumping, dewatering, and filtration equipment serving heavy industrial customers. Founded in 1998 by Steve Adler and headquartered in Livermore, California, the company operates a fleet of frac tanks, IronMax tanks, polyethylene tanks, specialty tanks, stainless steel tanker trailers, roll-off boxes (roll-tarp, vacuum, metal-lid, dewatering, low-profile bin), prime-assisted, sound-attenuated, and air-operated diaphragm pumps, and bag and sand media filtration systems. These rental assets are complemented by ancillary products (industrial fittings, hoses, spill containment berms, manifolds, roll-off ramps, temporary piping, water bridges) and a suite of on-site services covering emergency response, waste management, liquid storage, process water, dewatering, wastewater management, waste transport, hydrotesting, and liquid transfer.

The business serves 14+ industrial verticals, with primary focus on petroleum refineries and chemical manufacturing and secondary exposure to construction, data centers, power generation, pulp and paper, pipelines and terminals, manufacturing, shipyards and marine terminals, steel mills, municipal services, oil and gas exploration, and environmental services. Named customers include Valero, Dow, Phillips 66, ExxonMobil, Univar Solutions, Lotte Chemical, and SET Environmental. Distribution is direct-to-enterprise via regional branches with physical inventory for rapid deployment, supplemented by a website-based quote request funnel and 24/7 phone support (1-833-ICTough).

Revenue is generated through usage-based equipment rental (daily/weekly/monthly rates inclusive of delivery and pickup) and professional services tied to the rental fleet. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; account establishment requires a credit application. The company's 2025 merger positions it as a single-source provider for total water and liquid management, with documented operational scale including mobilization of nearly 60 frac tanks across three branches during Hurricane Ian recovery and a two-hour response time during the 2025 D.C. jet fuel spill. No revenue, headcount growth, or ownership/financial structure beyond the merger is disclosed in available source data.
