GRP Sectional Water Tanks
GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic) sectional water tanks are one of the most efficient and durable options for water storage across various industries. These tanks are specifically designed to offer flexibility, durability, and resilience, making them the ideal choice for municipal, industrial, commercial, and residential water storage needs. GRP sectional tanks are made of high-quality, corrosion-resistant materials and come in a modular format, allowing them to be assembled on-site to meet specific storage requirements.

GRP Panel Design
By encapsulating a 50mm layer of rigid polyurethane foam, PIPECO pre-insulated panel could maintain the desired water temperature stored inside the tank under extreme temperature condition. PIPECO pre-insulated panel could be selected for water storage where there is a need to stabilize the temperature against extreme heat or freezing conditions so to prevent dew formation.
