Hot-Press Sectional Water Tanks
Our hot-press moulded sectional tanks are designed in a modular format and are made up of 1m GRP panels. Strict quality control measures are in place when panels are being moulded. Tricel manufactures WRAS/Reg.4 sectional cold water storage tanks that are compliant with British Standards. This makes our GRP sectional tanks suitable for potable water storage as they are designed to prevent legionella from breeding in the water supply.

Types of GRP Sectional Water Tanks
Externally Flanged Base
Externally Flanged Base (EFB) tanks are manufactured specifically for areas without a space restriction. They are built on raised supports and have fully self-draining bases which is ideal for maintaining and cleaning the tank.
Internally Flanged Base
Internally flanged base (IFB) tanks are most suited for areas where the height or headroom is restricted. They can be built on a flat base or levelled steel beams to support the full weight of the tank.
Totally Internally Flanged (TIF)
TIF tanks maximize water capacity in limited plant room spaces. NSF Regulation 4(1)a approved, these tanks are custom-designed and installed internally, optimizing space utilization.
Internally Flanged (if)
Internally Flanged Tanks are ideal for limited space applications and improves capacity and are available up to 2 M high.
