Panel Tanks
SFMC GRP SMC Panel Water Tanks
SFMC GRP SMC Panel Water Tanks offer a durable, modular solution for high-capacity water storage. Manufactured using glass-fibre-reinforced Sheet Moulding Compound (SMC), the tanks feature panels moulded under high heat and pressure for strength and a smooth internal finish.
The light-blocking panels help prevent algae growth, while external reinforcement keeps metal components away from stored water. Specially designed panel joints and resilient sealing materials provide dependable water tightness.
The modular construction allows tank dimensions and capacity to suit your space and storage requirements. Standardised bolted panels simplify installation, even in restricted areas, and allow future expansion or relocation.
Features
Hygienic Water Storage
Smooth internal surfaces and light-blocking panels help prevent algae growth, while sealed covers and screened vents keep dust and insects out.
Reliable Water Tightness
Specially designed convex base panels and resilient sealing materials help keep panel joints securely sealed under water pressure.
Strength & Durability
Corrosion-resistant GRP SMC panels and external reinforcement provide lasting strength while keeping metal components away from stored water.
Flexible Modular Design
Standardised bolted panels allow tank dimensions and capacity to suit your site, with options for future expansion and relocation.
Advanced SMC Panel Moulding Technology
SFMC GRP SMC Panel Water Tanks are manufactured using Sheet Moulding Compound—a combination of unsaturated polyester resin, glass fibre and reinforcing materials. The panels are moulded under high heat and pressure to create strong, durable components with a smooth, glass-like internal finish.
The tank’s floor, walls and roof are assembled using standardised bolted panels. External bracing provides structural support without placing metal reinforcement in contact with stored water. Specially designed base and drain panels support efficient drainage for periodic cleaning and inspection.
Panel shapes are developed using Finite Element Analysis to optimise structural performance. Optional PU foam-insulated panels help minimise changes in stored water temperature under hot or cold environmental conditions.
