Why Choose Glass-Lined Steel Tanks for Drinking Water Storage?

The need for safe, clean, and reliable drinking water storage is crucial to ensuring public health and hygiene. Our GLS tanks provide an excellent storage solution due to their unique combination of materials that ensures the highest standards of quality, safety, and performance. Below, we explore the key benefits of choosing Glass-Lined Steel Tanks for potable water and drinking water storage.

1. Superior Corrosion Resistance

One of the most significant challenges in potable water storage is ensuring the tank's resistance to corrosion. GLS tanks are made with a glass enamel coating fused to a steel substrate. This process creates a durable, smooth, and non-porous surface that effectively prevents corrosion, even in the most demanding environmental conditions.

Unlike traditional steel tanks, which may rust or deteriorate over time when exposed to water, the glass lining offers an extra layer of protection, ensuring the tank remains strong and reliable for years without compromising water quality.

2. Non-Reactive and Non-Toxic Coating

Our Glass-Lined Steel Tanks are coated with food-grade enamel, ensuring that the tank's internal surface does not interact with or contaminate the water. This is particularly important for potable water storage, where preserving the purity of the water is a top priority.

The non-reactive nature of the glass enamel ensures that the water does not absorb any chemicals or metallic elements from the tank's interior. This is especially beneficial for municipalities and industries that need to store water for extended periods. The glass lining also prevents any unwanted tastes or odors, keeping the water fresh and clean.

3. Long-Term Durability

GLS tanks are designed to withstand the test of time. The fusion of glass to steel creates a highly durable tank that is resistant to impacts, scratches, and wear. These tanks have an extended lifespan and require minimal maintenance, making them a cost-effective solution for potable water storage in the long run.

Whether exposed to harsh weather conditions, varying temperatures, or high-pressure situations, GLS tanks continue to perform reliably. This durability makes them an excellent choice for both urban and rural water storage projects, where long-term performance and minimal maintenance are essential.

4. Compliance with International Standards

Center Enamel’s Glass-Lined Steel Tanks meet international quality and safety standards for potable water storage. Our tanks are NSF/ANSI 61 certified, which confirms that they are safe for storing drinking water. Additionally, our tanks adhere to ISO 9001 and ISO 28765 certifications, which further confirm their quality and compliance with global industry standards.

Our commitment to high standards ensures that when you choose Center Enamel tanks, you are investing in products that have been tested and approved for use in critical applications like potable water storage.

5. Leak-Proof and Hygienic

The smooth, non-porous surface created by the glass lining ensures that GLS tanks are completely leak-proof. This is especially important for drinking water storage, as leaks can lead to contamination or loss of water. The hygienic properties of the glass enamel coating also prevent the buildup of bacteria, algae, or other microorganisms, which can compromise water quality.

This makes GLS tanks an excellent choice for municipal water systems, rural water supplies, and emergency water storage, where ensuring a continuous and safe supply of clean water is essential.

6. Temperature Resistance and Insulation

Temperature fluctuations can impact the quality of stored water, especially in regions with extreme climates. Our Glass-Lined Steel Tanks offer excellent temperature resistance, maintaining stable internal conditions. The glass enamel coating helps insulate the tank, ensuring the water stays at a consistent temperature and is less susceptible to external environmental factors such as heat, cold, or UV radiation.

This feature ensures that the stored water remains fresh and safe for consumption, regardless of temperature variations, making GLS tanks a versatile solution for various geographic locations.

7. Customizable Capacity and Design

At Center Enamel, we understand that different projects require different capacities. Our Glass-Lined Steel Tanks are fully customizable in terms of size and capacity, making them suitable for a wide range of potable water storage needs, from small rural water tanks to large municipal storage solutions.

Our design options also include a variety of roof and lining options, which ensure the tank meets the specific needs of the project, such as Aluminum Dome Roofs for enhanced durability or single and double membrane roofs for added flexibility.
