Tanks & Vessels

Fibreglass reinforced plastic (FRP) tanks and vessels, including the auxiliary components can be fabricated in virtually any shape or configuration, demonstrating the flexibility inherent with FRP composites. FRP tanks are your environmentally safe answer to processing and storing corrosive gases and liquids, whether below or above ground. Tanks, vessels and scrubbers can be designed to handle a wide variety of dynamic, hydrostatic loads and chemical environments. Such processing systems also find use as absorbers, de-misters, air strippers and bleach towers.

FRP tanks are internationally regarded as the superior solution for the underground storage of fossil fuels, ethanol and biodiesel. Tank designs are flexible to meet client specific needs and can include:

  • Single-wall fiberglass storage tanks provide customers with a cost effective alternative to metallic tanks.
  • Double-wall fiberglass storage tanks that offer customers full 360-degree secondary containment providing maximum protection of the environment.
  • Triple-wall fiberglass storage tanks provide customers with the most advanced level of security when secondary containment isn’t enough.
  • Multi-compartment fiberglass storage tanks are a popular choice when storing two or three grades of fuel in a single tank within separate compartments. In many cases, these tanks provide overall savings versus two or three separate tanks.

Our tanks and vessels meet the most stringent fiberglass tank specifications for manufacturers (include design and manufacturing specifications) and offer the following advantages over metallic options:

  • Corrosion resistant - eliminates possibility of leakage due to internal or external corrosion Structurally sound
  • Designed to meet customers site-specific needs
  • Convenient transport and handling
  • Adaptable for wide range of uses

Tanks and vessels are manufactured and installed according to EN 13121, SANS 1668:2013 and SABS BS 4994:1987.
