Custom plastic tanks are fabricated to meet unique requirements that standard tanks cannot, offering flexibility in size, shape, materials, and features. Built from durable plastics like polyethylene, polypropylene, PVC, or polycarbonate, they provide excellent chemical resistance, corrosion protection, and lightweight strength. These tanks are widely used in industries such as chemical processing, water treatment, marine, agriculture, and stormwater management, where tailored solutions are essential.
Custom tanks can be fabricated in plastics that might not be available from tank manufacturers. Allowing more flexibility in chemical choices.
Custom tanks can be built to any size required, unlike standard models that come in fixed dimensions, allowing for precise volume and capacity specifications.
Unlike manufactured tanks, custom tanks are able to be built in various styles like cylindrical, rectangular, dynamic thickeners, insulated, sx cells, and many more.
Unlike manufactured tanks, custom tanks are able to come with customizable accessories such as baffles, downcomers, windows, lids, outlets, and many more.
Custom tanks are able to fit into tight or irregular spaces where standard models are not able to.
Custom tanks can be designed specifically to individual processes or fluids, thus offering better safety, containment, and efficiency.
Fabricated with high quality materials and the right thickness for specific applications, custom tanks often provide longer service lives.
Initial costs may be greater, but a custom tanks are easier to maintain and reduce the need for modifications, reducing downtimes.
Custom tanks can be built to fit into pre-existing setups without modifications or renovations to the existing workspace.
Custom tanks can be built with accessories like windows, access ports, and manholes to allow for ease of entry and maintenance.
We can fabricate custom plastic tanks with a variety of different plastics. We commonly fabricate them with polypropylene, polyethylene, PVC, type 2 PVC, clear PVC, and polycarbonate.
Our custom plastic tanks can be used for a multitude of processes. Most commonly our clients use them for fluid mixing, fluid collection, fluid storage, solvent extraction, fluid filtration, and plating.
We have the ability to fabricate custom tanks in whichever way our clients need their tanks to be built. These include round cylindrical, square and rectangular tanks, insulated tanks, solvent extraction cells, dynamic thickeners, multichambered tanks, and cone bottom tanks. Additionally, we are able to add many accessory options to our custom tanks such as outlets, baffles, windows, lids, and downcomers.
A custom plastic tank may be needed if your project requires dimensions, shapes, or capacities that standard models can’t accommodate. Custom tanks are ideal for applications with unique space constraints, specialized fluids, or specific design requirements such as custom fittings, baffles, or inlets and outlets. They’re also the right choice when the tank must integrate seamlessly into an existing system or meet strict chemical compatibility standards. While a custom tank may have a higher initial cost, it often provides a more efficient, reliable, and cost-effective long-term solution tailored to your exact needs.
Designing a custom plastic tank begins with clearly defining your application and performance requirements, including capacity, dimensions, shape, and installation location. Once you know the purpose, whether for chemical processing, water storage, or food applications, you can select the appropriate tank type and the right plastic material, such as polyethylene, polypropylene, PVC, or polycarbonate, based on chemical compatibility, UV resistance, and temperature tolerance. From there, develop detailed 2D or 3D drawing that incorporates essential features like fittings, baffles, windows, and supports while ensuring structural integrity and accessibility for maintenance. It’s also important to consider installation, and long-term durability when finalizing the design. Collaborating closely with your fabricator ensures the finished tank meets your exact specifications, performs reliably, and provides lasting value.
