Quality Advantages of FRP Storage Tanks
FRP storage tank is widely used in chemical engineering, light industry, pharmacy, metallurgy, brewing, electrochemical water supply, sewage, petroleum refining, steelmaking, printing and dyeing, transportation, storage, food fermentation, fermentation, water treatment, seawater desalination, etc.
Fiberglass-reinforced plastic tanks are a great storage option for industries looking for a durable, customizable, and efficient way to store materials such as chemicals, fuels, wastewater, or potable water that is long-lasting and flexible. If you’re looking for a corrosion-resistant storage unit, this could be the storage option for you! FRP is an industry standard for oil, gas, and agriculture, and the standard for many big-name companies. But there are some basic things to remember when purchasing a fiberglass-reinforced plastic tank.
Important factors in manufacturing FRP tank

Our engineers can calculate your needs based on your available space, chemical storage requirements, and applicable physical conditions.
We rely on advanced technology, trustworthy quality, and a good reputation.
FRP stands for fiberglass-reinforced plastic.
What is FRP storage tank?
FRP Storage Tank is currently the leading industry standard tank on the market, due to its lightweight and strong fiberglass design, the FRP tank provides safe storage without the risk of corrosion or bacterial contamination.
With ideal design characteristics, shape performance, and ease of maintenance, compared with steel, FRP (fiberglass reinforced plastic) has high corrosion resistance and a specific gravity of 1.5 to 1.9, much lower than 7.8 for steel. However, its mechanical strength is higher than steel. It is also characterized by a low coefficient of thermal expansion and thermal insulation of the facades. FRP tank is widely used in many fields.
Advantages of GFRP storage tank
1. High strength: The density is between 1.5 ~ 2.0, only 1/4 ~ 1/5 of carbon steel, but the tensile strength is close to or higher than that of carbon steel.
2. Good corrosion resistance
3. Good electrical performance
4. Safe for the environment
5. Light weight – easy handling
6. Smooth interior surface – less sludge formation, lower cleaning costs
7. It is an excellent insulating material used in the manufacture of insulators.
Applications where the fiberglass storage tank is used
Media that can be stored: inorganic acids, organic acids, bases and hydroxides, elements, gases and other inorganic compounds, alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, ethers, esters, hydrocarbons, petroleum products, halogen-containing organic compounds and other organic compounds, etc.
