Polyethylene water tanks
Explore the Polyaoun range, from 100 to 5,000 gallons. Start with the tank orientation and capacity, then compare the construction and dimensions.
POLYAOUN WATER TANKS
Find the right fit.
Vertical and horizontal configurations cover a range of storage requirements, from homes and farms to commercial and industrial sites.
Materials and finish
Linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) is used for impact resistance, resistance to environmental stress cracking and UV stability. The material does not rust and has a smooth surface for cleaning.
Specification and documentation
Match the construction to the intended contents and installation. Ask for the applicable food- and water-storage documents for your selected tank.
UNDERSTAND THE CONSTRUCTION
Different layers. Different roles.
The layer arrangement helps manage sunlight, the inner surface and, in insulated models, heat transfer.
Three layers
- Outer white layer
- UV stabiliser
- Centre black layer
- Sun shield
- Inner white layer
- Water-contact surface
Four layers
- Outer white layer
- UV stabiliser
- Centre black layer
- Sun shield
- Insulating layer
- Thermal insulation
- Inner white layer
- Water-contact surface
An interlocking lid helps limit dust and contamination entering the tank. Confirm the layer construction and documentation for the model you select.
