What Are GLS Tanks?
GLS (Glass-Lined Steel) tanks, also known as Glass-Fused-to-Steel tanks, are created by fusing glass to steel at extremely high temperatures. This process results in a tank that combines the strength and flexibility of steel with the chemical resistance and durability of glass. The glass coating acts as a protective barrier, preventing corrosion and ensuring a long-lasting, maintenance-free service life.
These tanks are designed for various storage applications, from potable water and wastewater to bio-energy and agricultural use. Their outstanding corrosion resistance and ease of installation make GLS tanks one of the most sought-after storage solutions on the market.
Key Benefits of Center Enamel GLS Tanks
Unmatched Corrosion Resistance
The fusion of glass to steel creates a highly durable, non-porous coating that is resistant to both chemical and environmental corrosion. This makes GLS tanks ideal for storing aggressive liquids such as wastewater, industrial effluents, and landfill leachate.
Long Service Life
GLS tanks are engineered to last. Their robust construction and resistance to corrosion extend their operational lifespan, reducing the need for frequent maintenance or replacements.
Fast and Efficient Installation
GLS tanks are delivered in modular panels, which can be quickly bolted together on-site. This allows for rapid installation, minimizing project timelines and costs.
Customizable Design
Center Enamel offers a wide range of GLS tank sizes and configurations, ensuring that we can meet the specific requirements of any project. Our tanks are available in capacities ranging from a few hundred cubic meters to large-scale industrial tanks.
Eco-Friendly and Sustainable
The durable nature of GLS tanks ensures minimal environmental impact, as their long service life reduces the need for frequent replacements. Additionally, the materials used in GLS tanks are fully recyclable.
