While there are many materials for fabricating tanks, fiber glass is becoming a popular choice for many home owners and businesses today. And, this only points to something unique about fiber glass tanks. In fact, there are a number of reasons why most people today opt for fiber glass tanks over other materials. Modern fiber glass tanks are fabricated with a keen attention on longevity, eco-friendliness and greater efficiency.
At FiberGlass Singapore, we are committed to the provision of the best quality fiber glass tanks for water and other liquids including, hazardous liquids. Our fiber glass tanks are ideal for both underground and above ground installations, which make them quite versatile when it comes to liquid storage solutions.
Fiber Glass Tank Unique Qualities
Corrosion proof
Unlike traditional steel tanks, fiber glass tanks are resistant to corrosion, which ensures that the liquids stored therein are not contaminated in any way. Fiber glass tanks are enhanced with a smooth no porous interiors that can effectively withstand the formation of algae, bacteria or microbes that would contaminate the water stored therein. Whether you use the tank for water storage or other liquids, they will always remain in the perfect condition.
Even if the tank is fully buried underground, there are no chances of either internal or external corrosion. Besides, the fact that fiber glass withstands corrosion or rust enables the tanks to last for quite longer durations of time without any needs for repairs. Since fiber glass does not have metallic components, the tanks will not be subjected to degradation no matter how long they remain immersed underground.
Long lasting
Fiber glass tanks are made from composite materials reinforced with glass and resin. The fibers are randomly arranged and flattened into very strong sheets that can effectively withstand impacts for quite a longer period of time. Although the materials usually have varying density, all fiber glass tanks are highly resilient and do not experience dilation. The structural stability of fiber glass ensures the tanks are free from the impacts of expansion and contraction.
Fiber glass tanks are accorded a unibody fabrication that not only makes them quite robust but, also prevents the formation of leaks or other impacts that could impair its integrity over time. Even if erected on stands aboveground, fiber glass tanks can effectively endure the harsh environmental conditions in outdoor environments. Fiber glass does not bend even under intense heat, which also contributes a longer lifespan.
Lower maintenance
Unlike concrete and steel tanks that require constant checking and maintenance operations like waterproofing, fiber glass tanks require very little care. The durable construction and corrosion proof property of fiber glass tanks ensures that they remain in proper condition over time. The tanks are fabricated with the best finishes that provide a lasting seal to protect them from defects like, cracks and leaks.
Due to the strong finishes applied on both the internal and external surfaces of fiber glass tanks, you will never have to perform seal replacement. Besides, fiber glass tanks will not require any overlay throughout their life. On the other hand, the tanks do not require any special monitoring. Today, you can easily find fiber glass tanks with interstitial monitoring systems used for detection of leaks and other defects.
The low maintenance of fiber glass tanks will not only give you peace of mind but, also significantly cut your overall spending on maintenance and repairs. These are among the key reasons that make fiber glass tanks quite cost effective and efficient.
Easy scalability
Fiber glass can be molded into just any design, shape or dimension. The same applies to the tanks, which are offered in a wide range of configurations. This means regardless of the available space or its configuration, you can always get the right fiber glass tank to fit. The tanks are available in a variety of standard as well as complex sizes for varying capacities of liquids that you may want to store therein.
The design and manufacture of fiber glass tanks is mainly focused on meeting different customer demands, hence, you can always get the most suitable one that properly adapts to the constraints of your space. The scalability of fiber glass tanks also ensures that they can be easily linked to other complimentary tanks, especially in factories. As a result, you will be able to design fiber glass tanks of just any capacity that suits your needs.
Owing to the easy scalability of fiber glass tanks, they are usually a more economical solution, especially in applications that require medium to large capacity liquid storage.
Light weight
Despite the detailed fabrication of fiber glass tanks, they are very light in weight. Compared to a concrete tank, a fiber glass tank is almost 30 times lighter. This ensures easy handling during transportation, installation and even relocation. Coupled with the tank’s structural stability, there is always very little required during installation. In fact, a fiber glass tank can be installed just anywhere, provided the surface is leveled.
Fiber glass tanks are equipped with an anchoring system that enables them to offset floating ability in the event that the water table reaches the tank. This ensures that the functionality of the tanks is not jeopardized no matter the kind of environment where they are installed. Fiber glass tanks are fabricated for both flooded and dry excavation conditions, which enables to always remain stable whether empty of filled with liquids.
Versatile
Considering the ease of scalability in fiber glass tank designs, there is no doubt about their versatility. But, that is not all; fiber glass tanks are fabricated for storage of piped and rain water, chemicals, grey matter or waste as well as other kinds of liquids. Besides, the tanks have a wide range of other uses including balance and buffer tanks, break and header tanks, settlement and Mains storage tanks.
