Fiberglass tanks made of glass fiber reinforced plastic (GRP) can be used to store liquids, granules, wastewater, fertilizers, aggressive liquids and chemicals.
Fiberglass tanks are designed as vertical or horizontal standing. Vertical tanks can also be underground. The tanks can be supplied in a complete or incomplete package with the necessary covers, pipes etc. (Excluding pumps, automatic system etc.). Fiberglass tanks are made using filament winding technology and industrial robots for trimming and drilling.
Advantages:
Durable & lightweight fiberglass structure that is resistant to mechanical, chemical influences and temperature variations.
Easy and quick assembly. The tanks can be manufactured with diameters from Ø0.6 to Ø5m, and assembled in lengths from 2 to 17 m with up to 300 m3 in one volume.
The tank wall, made by cross-filament winding technology which is much stronger than by spraying method and has a tensile strength – 432 MPa and a tensile modulus – 14.3 GPa. GRP tanks with wall made by spraying method, have a tensile strength – 111 MPa and a tensile modulus – 5 GPa.
