5 Advantages of Fibreglass Reinforced Plastic Tanks
 FRP tanks are known for their smooth interior surface, superior durability and for delivering excellent temperature resistant properties. Here are the top 5 advantages of FRP tanks.

 1.     Easy to Install
 
FRP tanks are lightweight making them easy to install. Our FRP tanks can be transported to your work site and are simple to install, as the tanks only require the external connection of pipework, some electrical connections and are very lightweight. If you prefer to let a professional handle the installation process, our team at Chemstore is fully equipped and qualified to carry out onsite installations for your FRP tanks.
 
2.     Resistance to Chemicals
 
Our FRP tanks are used to store chemicals such as sodium hypochlorite, sodium hydroxide, aluminium sulphate, coagulant and more. Using industry leading resin technologies, we carefully select the most appropriate FRP designs to meet your requirements and use the most advanced technologies to deliver the highest quality, long-lasting tanks that have been proven to last in the toughest conditions. 
 
3.     Low Maintenance
 
As FRP tanks are manufactured with resin therefore have smooth walls and are 100% watertight which prevents contamination, resulting in no unnecessary water pumping or chemical treatment. Having a smooth resin coated interior also reduces scum build-up, and is resistant to abrasion from suspended grit, resulting in little cleaning required on your end and only routine maintenance.
 
4.     Corrosion Resistance
 
A distinct advantage of FRP tank is its corrosion resistant to harsh corrosive chemicals and conditions. All FRP tanks are manufactured with high surface corrosion resistance, which is achieved by adding a smooth resin-rich layer which reduces friction. Our FRP tanks guarantee resistance to corrosive chemicals found in sewers and wastewater, unlike concrete tanks. Our tanks have been proven to last in the ever-changing environment and are even built to withstand hydraulic pressure.
 
5.     Custom Design
 
Our FRP tanks can be custom designed to meet your individual requirements. Variances within our design process provide customers the ability to specify their needs, the tank shape they desire and its size, which are all taken into consideration during the engineering and design phase. Our engineers can work with you to meet any tank requirement, tailored to suit the needs of your workplace. FRP tanks use innovative technology to manufacture the best, high strength tanks in Australia.
 
There are many advantages to FRP tanks as they are lightweight, high strength and ideal for water treatment and chemical storage. Our production of FRP tanks provide opportunities for custom design tanks and are made with the most innovative technologies. FRP are the supreme tank compared to steel and concrete tanks and can handle any environment as they’re 100% watertight and have been proven to have a long service life of at least 20 years.
 
Chemstore offers a unique FRP chemical and liquid tank manufacturing service that is second to none. If you require a custom design FRP tanks, we can provide you with the right information and design to meet all of your requirements.

Everything you Need to Know About Maintaining an Underground Sewage Tank

While it’s not the most glamorous topic to read about, it’s certainly an issue that can have disastrous consequences if the right measures aren’t taken to maintain an underground sewage tank.Having a sanitary, well-designed, and properly installed sewerage tank is vital to ensuring the safe disposal of waste products and contaminants to protect the health of society. 

Why Australian Manufactured Tanks are Critical

In order to meet the demands of modern workplaces, more businesses than ever are switching to fibre reinforced plastic (FRP) and composites for their chemical storage solutions. But did you know why it’s important to buy locally? In order to help our customers in manufacturing, we’ve curated a useful guide about the importance of buying local. 

Guide to Buying Chemical Storage Tanks

As chemical usage has continuously increased to meet the demands of both individuals and organisations, a chemical storage tank is now not just desirable but has become essential. A chemical storage tank is a major component within chemical and industrial storage solutions. 

Why storing chemicals correctly is important

If history has taught us anything, it’s that chemicals can have disastrous effects when they are not stored or managed properly.

How to Use Chemstore Process Tanks

Process tanks are multi-use tanks that are equipped to complete a sub-process of a larger overall process. 

The Importance of Local Manufacturing

Chemstore is a huge believer in the importance of local manufacturing. Local manufacturing is a huge benefit for the community, not only for the local economy but also for the workers in that community.  

Are Chemical Storage Tanks safe?

When it comes to storing dangerous chemicals, finding the right chemical tank solution is critical to maintaining a safe work environment. Chemical tanks are used to store fluids such as sodium hypochlorite, sodium hydroxide, aluminium sulphate, fluorosilicic acid, coagulant and ferric chloride just to name a few.
