Vertical and Upright Polyethylene Tanks

KEFCO's 7700 gallon HDPE poly containment basin and 6800 gallon vertical (or upright) HDLPE poly chemical storage tank. This poly configuration, poly tank and poly containment basin, saved the end user time and energy. Setup properly, polyethylene tanks will provide safe "poly" inexpensive solutions for your chemical bulk storage requirements.

High density linear polyethylene containment basin and a poly, also HDLPE, upright bulk storage tank set up for 15% sodium hypochlorite service.

Polyethylene flat bottom, dome top vertical tanks have capacities from 22 gallons to the worlds' largest 16,500 gallons. WOW! Safe double wall tank systems are available to 6,000 gallons. Poly cone or conical bottom tanks are available in 15 to 11,500 gallons!

These safe polyethylene chemical storage tanks are rotationally molded, one piece, seamless in a variety of resins. High density polyethylene, high density linear poly, crosslink (or crosslinked) poly; HDPE, HDXLPE, XLPE, HDLPE. Each resin has its own specific characteristics and use in the chemical, pharmaceutical, industrial, wastewater, petro-chemical, and other related industries. Verticals, horizontals, cone bottom, uprights, and safe polyethylene double wall tanks, systems, and poly containment basins. What are these plastic resins? Read about the poly tanks resins!

The vessels above were put into service storing sodium hypochlorite at 17% and were warranteed for three [3] years by the manufacturer. This configuration is shipped daily throughout the United States because of value and availability. Taken off the truck this containment system is ready to go! Or try our poly safe double wall tanks or our poly safe tank systems; a vertical or upright poly tank with a poly containment basin. Read about our poly containment basins and "safe" double wall, self-contained covered, plastic chemical storage tanks!

The Chlorine Institute, Inc., Phamplet 96 titled SODIUM HYPOCHLORITE MANUAL, Edition 2, May 2000, Section 6.2, Storage Containers, Subsection 6.2.2.4, Materials of Construction, paragraph c), reads:

"Sodium hypochlorite users and manufacturers have had success with high density linear polyethylene tanks, however, high density cross-linked polyethylene should not be used. Vertical stress cracking has been experienced with the cross-linked polyethylene storage tanks in this service."

This has, and continues to be KEFCO's, and KEFCO's customers' experiences. Don't believe all the cross-linky stuff! KEFCO offers a better warranty along with better pricing for this service. Order Phamplet 96 at www.cl2.com and see for yourself! Why has cross-linked poly been spec'd so often? At one time it was the "only" resin available. The original cross-linked polyethylene resins are no longer available and, the rotational equipment is usually out-dated compared to our modern equipment.

KEFCO offers a full range of product designs including: closed or open top poly vertical (upright) tanks in flat or cone bottoms, horizontal, horizontal leg, plastic IBCs, DOT and UN approved. Small batch or "day" tanks, the worlds' largest selection of poly containment basins and safe poly double wall tanks. Our plastic IBCs are priced to travel!
