Fiberglass Tanks

FIBERGLASS . . .
MAKES A BETTER TANK THAN MILD STEEL
(OR STAINLESS) FOR 3 GOOD REASONS!

1 FIBERGLASS NEVER RUSTS
Fiberglass is the NEVER RUST answer to the familiar problem caused when mild steel tanks get eaten away. Highly corrosive liquids seem to have an appetite for mild steel. True, stainless never rusts... but the cost is high for most installations.

2 FIBERGLASS IS MAINTENANCE FREE
Forget the yearly drudgery and expense of tank maintenance. When you consider the high cost to maintain a mild-steel tank farm (over a period of years) you're ready for maintenance-free fiberglass.

3 FIBERGLASS COSTS LESS
Large capacity fiberglass tanks always cost less than stainless tanks of the same height and diameter. In the long run, mild steel tanks cost more than fiberglass, when you consider the high cost to maintain a mild-steel tank farm (over a period of years)

WALL CONSTRUCTION
...multi-layer, multipurpose
Each area of the cross section of the wall structure, provides an important part of the total design. Properly designed and constructed, fiberglass provides years of dependable service.

Proper choice of the resin type, corrosion resistant liner and wall structure thickness for the intended purpose are all important factors . . . areas where Enviropac can assist in the right choices for your requirements.

MANDREL (brown)
Supports wall during build-up...removed when container is wound to specified length and wall thickness.

LINER (white)
Mirror-smooth, resin rich interior barrier reinforced with c-veil or nexus.

CHOPPED GLASS STRANDS (blue)
Reinforcing strands simultaneously sprayed with resin to add strength.

FIBERGLASS FILAMENTS (orange)
Resin-impregnated strands wound continuously produce a uniform laminate of superior strength.

RESIN (red)
Permanently bonds all fibers and forms an impregnable barrier to contain fertilizers of the highest concentrations.

EXTERIOR COAT (grey)
Thick with UV (Ultraviolet) inhibitors. Stops weathering. Keeps sunlight from reacting with tank contents.

Filament Wound Tank in Fabrication

Tank Mandrel

Fabricating operations take place on a cylindrical mandrel of the diameter and length equal to the size of the tank. A precisely controlled wall thickness is achieved by filament winding in combination with sprayed resins and chopped-glass stands.

When you plan to add or replace your mild steel tanks, ask for assistance from people who understand the business . . . someone who speaks you language.
