Glass Fused Steel (GFS) tanks, also known as Glass Lined Steel (GLS) tanks, are made using panels of mild steel with a fused layer of glass. This glass fusion process significantly enhances the durability of the panels, protecting them from environmental conditions, corrosion, and wear. This makes the material stronger, broadens its acceptable pH range for alkaline solutions, and improves its resistance to abrasion.
We offer GFS tanks, also called Enamel Steel Water Tanks, using RTP technology that meets the latest fire safety standards for storing fire protection water. These tanks comply with FM Global standards and other major industry requirements.
The glass fused into the steel panels creates a solid, smooth, and shiny enamel coating on both the inside and outside surfaces. This enamel is fused at high temperatures (780 to 900 degrees Celsius) in a special furnace, making the steel panels highly durable. The panels are then assembled with high-grade bolts and flexible sealants.
All installation materials and accessories undergo thorough surface treatment. These GFS tanks are ideal for storing various fluids and solid materials. They are particularly noted for being FM Global approved and are commonly used for industrial water storage. They are also essential for environmental technology facilities, such as wastewater treatment plants, fire fighting water storage, and anaerobic digester tanks.
Glass Fused Steel (GFS) Tanks are designed to last over 40 years.
The production and construction process is efficient and safe.
Pre-constructed GFS tanks can be easily relocated.
They offer exceptional resistance to abrasion and chemicals.
