  1. To know the product FRP storage tanks, you need to understand the material FRP used by manufacturing units to construct these tanks. As Wiki says, FRP or Fiberglass reinforced plastic is a composite material that manufacturers prepare with polymer matrix reinforced with fibers. These fibers are of various kinds- carbon, glass, basalt, or aramid. Some more fibers used by manufacturing team include paper, wood, or asbestos. The polymer is usually a vinyl ester, epoxy, or polyester thermo setting plastic. However, there are some companies using phenol formaldehyde resins as polymer. Why FRP is known as super material for making storage tanks? There are several reasons that make FRP a great material for designing and intending storage tanks. We are moving to these advantages now: Corrosion resistance Fiberglass reinforced plastic has corrosion resistance property and this is one of the major reasons why this material is used for making storage tanks. In many circumstances, FRP is the only material that has potential to handle environment conditions. Corrosion resistance property is a function of both the resin content and certain resin used for lamination.

  2. Light weight Another best feature is its light weight. FRP weighs half as much as aluminum and one seventh as much as steel. Its light weight property makes FRP an important material to construct pipes and tanks. It is cost effective and easy to install. High strength FRP equipment carry high strength. Such feature of high strength offers another quality reason to select FRP for constructing plumbing and storage products. Economy FRP is economical when it is compared to other materials for corrosion service. FRP may provide satisfactory solution to corrosion issues and the lowest cost. If you get a choice to pick a FRP storage tank or steel storage tank, go for FRP storage tank option because it is less costly than steel and require less maintenance services. Flexibility Many people neglect the versatility of FRP. This material is just superb for several applications since you can do things with it that are impossible with other materials. You can mold FRP into any configuration. You can build a temporary or permanent mold with FRP. Due to these benefits, manufacturers are making FRP Storage Tanks in more numbers. If you need any other detail on FRP material, you can browse online. If you need a storage tank solution or maintenance tips, you can contact professionals for help.
