The tanks are non-erosive, moisture resistant, and insusceptible to damage during natural disasters such as earthquakes.
As an inert material, it does not react when in contact with other substances, making it suitable for storing drinking water without impacting taste or odor.
Manufacturing:
As mentioned before, polyethylene tanks are made up of polymers, which are strong and durable. A process called rotational molding is used to manufacture the tanks where polyethylene powder is added to a mold, placed in a container, and heated up to melt it. The container is then rotated so that the PE covers the mold. Several layers of substance are formed, after which they are given the desired shape and size quickly and cost-effectively. The process could take anywhere between half an hour to 2 hours. In appearance, it is no different than any other contemporary tank. However, there are corrugated sides, providing the tank additional strength, a property that is especially useful for larger tanks. Furthermore, they are lighter than others making movement and transportation extremely easy.
At Polycon, products of the highest grade are produced under strict quality control that matches the requirements of DIN ISO 9001:2008 at each stage of the manufacturing process.
