Key Features
- Chemical Resistance: FRP walls tolerate a wide pH range, suitable for strong acids/alkalis
- Fire-Retardant & UV-Stable: Can be supplied with flame-retardant and UV-protective resins or coatings
- Pressure/Vacuum Rated: Designed to handle slight pressure or vacuum if needed
- Double-Wall Options: Available with secondary containment (double-walled) for extra safety
- Accessories: Ladders, platforms, level indicators, venting, and engineered supports
Benefits
- Long Service Life: FRP tanks outlast steel in corrosive service, withstanding decades without pitting or leaks
- Low Weight: Easier transport and installation compared to metal tanks
- Versatility: Custom shapes and sizes, from cylindrical to rectangular designs, to fit site constraints
- Leak-Proof: Seamless lamination prevents leaks; optional welded thermoplastic liners eliminate seepage
