Storage or Processing Tanks
- Steel – mild or stainless

*tank must be structurally sound
THE PROBLEM
– New tank is too costly
– Leaky Tank – from cracks or corrosion
– Tank contaminates solution
– Old lining contaminates solution
– Bonded-in lining is hardening and cracking
– Solution chemically attacks tank
– Other lining methods too costly or time-consuming to install
THE ANSWER: Flexible PVC Tank Liners
– Quick easy installation with minimal down time and loss of production
– Use of your own personnel rather than expensive outside contractors in most cases
– Inexpensive compared to other alternatives
– Custom made to tank dimensions for proper fit
– Elimination of sandblasting and bonding of liner to tank
– No other expensive tank preparation – just smooth down sharp projections
– Liner will expand and contract with temperature changes and tank movement
– Long lasting superior material formulations for widest range of chemical resistance
– Easy to repair
