Vertical Plastic Tanks

Vertical Plastic Poly Tanks

Vertical plastic poly tanks are used for storing liquids. They can store a number of different liquids and are most commonly used by industrial manufacturers. They are made from medium to high density polyethylene. They also have U.V. inhibitors that prevent damage by ultra violet rays.

This material is resistant to chemicals and weather elements. This makes the containers very durable and able to store all sorts of chemicals without getting damaged. They come in a variety of sizes ranging from 175 gallons to as large as 10,500 gallons. There are stands for these Vertical plastic poly tanks with the exception of the very large ones. The stands are made from polyethylene or metal.

These containers can be stored inside or outside. Polyethylene is a very strong form of thermo-plastic, which is why it is so durable.  The containers are translucent and have gallon marks so that you can see the levels of the liquids and measure the amount of liquid in the containers.

Choosing a container for your business:

  • Decide on your business needs and choose your size. 
  • Extreme temperatures and some chemicals can shorten the life of your Vertical plastic poly tanks. You will need to be careful about the containers you choose.
  • It is important to be sure that the container has the necessary UV protection. This is because sunlight and even florescent lights can damage the container and decrease the quality of the contents.
  • Be careful to check the ESCR rating of the container. This is its resistance to cracking.
  • Always do your research and buy from a reliable company. This is very important as quality is critical when buying these containers. This will prevent accidents.
  • Be sure that the Vertical plastic poly tanks that you are buying are in compliance with FDA standards.
  • Check the chemical charts for compatibility of your chemicals to the containers you are purchasing. If in doubt check with the manufacturer.

You should be sure to inspect your Vertical plastic poly tanks on a regular basis, so that you can be sure there is no damage to the container. This includes cracks, discolorations and signs of wear.
