Glass lined/ Glass Fused Storage Tanks Manufacturer and Supplier in Dubai-UAE

GLASS-FUSED-TO-STEEL (GFS Tank) Manufacturer and Supplier in Dubai, UAE

GLS tanks are Glass Lined Steel tanks, also known as Glass-Fused-to-steel tanks (GFS Tanks). The reason for fusing glass with steel is to enhance the properties of the latter. Single Steel is vulnerable to environmental conditions, hence the fusion is required. After fusing the steel with glass, the strength increases, the acceptable bracket of PH value for alkaline solutions widens, and the resistance of abrasion inflates.

We also offer Glass fused to steel tanks as per the RTP technology and fire protection water storage tanks which meets FM Global & other industry standards.

Process and Technology
The Glass Fused to Steel tank panels is lined inside and outside with the glass enamel. The enamel is a solid, smooth and shiny cover of silicate. It is fused in a special furnace having temperature ranges from 780 to 900 degree Celsius. The Steel rounded (cylinder) shell of the tank is built from two-layer glass-fused sheet coated on both the sides. The sheets are attached with special high-grade bolts and sealed by constantly flexible silicones (sealants). The connecting material and shell accessories are equipped with surface treatment. The glass-fused tanks can be used to store fluid or lose material. The specialty of these tanks is that they are FM Global approved & can be used as an industrial water storage tank. The GFS/GLS tanks are also a fundamental building element of environmental technological facilities such as Waste Water Treatment, Fire fighting Water storage and Anaerobic Digester Tank.

Quality Assurance and Standards
 Every sheet is checked in the manufacturer’s plant for the enamel layer completeness by using the POROSCOPE (DEZ 4.13) and PINHOLE (DEZ 4.12) test according to DIN ISO 2746. The chemical resistance and physical properties are also tested according to DIN and they comply with the highest quality requirements according to the methodology by the German Enameller’s Association (DEZ). Other than that our FM Global approved tanks are best for industrial usage.

Glass coated sheets can be delivered in four standard colors; Green (RAL 6009), Brown (RAL 8017), White (RAL 9000), and Blue (RAL 5013).

(GFS Tank) Manufacturer and Supplier in Dubai, UAE

GLS tanks, also known as Glass Lined Steel tanks or Glass-Fused-to-Steel (GFS) tanks, are an excellent choice for enhancing the durability and functionality of traditional steel tanks. The fusion of glass with steel significantly boosts the strength of the steel, making it resistant to environmental conditions that typically affect single steel structures. This fusion process widens the acceptable pH value range for alkaline solutions and increases abrasion resistance, making GLS tanks a superior option for various storage needs. The combination of these features makes GLS tanks ideal for storing a wide range of liquids, including water for fire protection and other industrial applications.

Our GLS tanks are manufactured using advanced RTP technology and meet stringent industry standards, including FM Global approvals. The panels of these tanks are lined inside and outside with a solid, smooth, and shiny glass enamel cover. This enamel is fused in a specialized furnace at temperatures ranging from 780 to 900 degrees Celsius, ensuring a robust and durable finish. The cylindrical shell of the tank is constructed from double-layer glass-fused sheets coated on both sides, attached with high-grade bolts, and sealed with flexible silicones. This construction method not only enhances the tank's durability but also ensures it is suitable for storing fluids or loose materials. GLS tanks are a fundamental element in environmental technological facilities, such as wastewater treatment plants, fire fighting water storage systems, and anaerobic digester tanks.

Quality assurance is a cornerstone of our GLS tank manufacturing process. Every sheet undergoes rigorous testing for enamel layer completeness using POROSCOPE (DEZ 4.13) and PINHOLE (DEZ 4.12) tests in accordance with DIN ISO 2746 standards. The chemical resistance and physical properties of the tanks are also tested to meet the highest quality requirements as per the German Enameller’s Association (DEZ) methodology. Additionally, our FM Global approved GLS tanks are available in four standard colors: Green (RAL 6009), Brown (RAL 8017), White (RAL 9000), and Blue (RAL 5013). These quality and aesthetic options make GLS tanks the best choice for industrial water storage and other demanding applications.
