On-site assembly

Our company always played a leading role in cutting-edge plastic constructions technology. One of these innovations is the development, design and construction of SEGMENTED storage tanks for chemicals. If the accessibility of the future tank location (e.g. in a basement) is strongly reduced or obstructed by piping or small entrance doors, the tank can be built on site.

Teblick developed a special construction method using flanged segments. During concept development, the tank is divided in segments, small enough to transport to the future tank location. Every segment consists of an internal perforated steel structure. To protect the steel structure from outside influences and to promote a strong adhesion of the inner lining, the tank is wrapped with a glass-fiber reinforced resin, and finished with a UV-protective top layer. This results in a 3D sandwich structure, which combines the following major advantages: mechanical strength, chemical resistance and UV protection.

All segments are flanged. On site, the tank can easily assembled by bolting them together. Afterwards, the segments are welded together from the inner site.

A final Sparktest (25.000V) guarantees the absence of any leak.
