Aboveground Tanks

 

Amiantit Fiberglass tanks for above ground applications provide an excellent vessel for liquid storage. They are made from polyester or vinylester resin reinforced with glass fiber.

These noncorroding tanks mean lower cost, minimum maintenance and dependable performance. Amiantit Fiberglass tanks are suitable for the storage of water and many common industrial chemicals.

 

Benefits of Amiantit Fiberglass storage tanks.

  • Fiberglass resists Corrosion

The highly corrosion resistant materials ensure excellent performance and prevent contamination of stored materials.

  • Low Initial Cost

Fiberglass tanks cost considerably less than rubber lined, epoxy lined or stainless steel tanks of equiv­alent storage capacities.

  • Strong and durable

Rugged fiberglass tanks are designed to provide long and trouble free service.

  • Low maintenance

With Amiantit Fiberglass tanks, maintenance requirements are minimal. Periodic exterior and interior maintenance is generally accomplished by simply washing with water.

  • Easy to Install

Fiberglass tanks are approximately 1/4 the weight of steel tanks of equivalent storage capacity. Lighter, less expensive equipment is needed for installation.

Also lower installation costs due to the requirements of smaller foundations and structural supports. 

  • Availability

Our manufacturing plant, located in Dammam, Saudi Arabia, ensures reliable, and fast service at reasonable prices. AFIL's services could extend to other countries within or outside the Arabian Gulf.

 

  • Environment

Amiantit Fiberglass tanks can safely handle more than 1400 chemicals. Chemicals listed in appendix I are for reference only. For specific information such as chemical concentration, temperatures and other chemicals, contact Amiantit Fiberglass Ind. Ltd. Technical Department.

  •  Governing Standards:

    1. ASTM 133299 Standard specification for filament wound fiber reinforced thermo set resin chemical storage tanks.
    2. ASTM 132583 Standard test method for identification hardness of rigid plastics by means of Barcol impresser.
    3. ASTM 133567 Standard method for determining dimensions of "fiberglass" (Glass Fiber Reinforced Thermosetting Resin) pipe and fittings.
    4. ASTM 132584 Ignition Loss of cured reinforced resin.
