Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic (FRP) used in tank linings make great long-term solutions for repairs and maintenance. The material is designed to last for 20 years or more, with minimal maintenance requirements. FRP wraps are a reliable alternative to replacing pipes, ducts, and liners, as well as being affordable. Here’s a breakdown about the benefits of fiberglass tank repairs. Read more »
Water tanks are used for many commercial and domestic purposes. A Commercial water tank can be used for municipal storage, agriculture, fire suppression, industrial manufacturing, and commercial food and beverage production.

Fiber Reinforced Plastic Tanks, or FRP tanks, are pretty low maintenance, but they cannot sustain themselves. There are some general tasks to preserve and protect these fiberglass tanks and optimize their function. FRP tanks are durable and resistant to corrosion. Read more »
Fiber reinforced plastic (FRP) is a popular method of making tank repairs. FRP tank liners have a lot of design flexibility. You can customize FRP liners to fit your needs. FRP has a high strength to weight ratio. It is lighter than metal but retains the strength. FRP tanks can be installed underground without tearing up the entire system. Still, for all the benefits, you can’t just leave your FRP tanks alone and expect them to operate efficiently without regular maintenance. You should also be prepared to watch for problems with your FRP tanks, to make fiberglass repairs before big problems ensue. Read more »
