Storage Tanks

Corrosion in storage tanks, both internally and externally, can lead to serious problems such as leaks, contamination, and costly repairs. Whether you are handling water, chemicals, or fuel, it is essential to protect your storage tanks from corrosion to extend their lifespan and ensure safe operation.

Leaks and Spills: Corrosion can create holes in the tanks, leading to dangerous leaks.

Contamination: If tanks store drinking water or other sensitive substances, internal corrosion can lead to contamination.

Reduced Lifespan: Without proper protection, storage tanks age and deteriorate faster, requiring earlier replacement or costly repairs.

Environmental Issues: Leaks from corroded tanks can cause serious environmental damage, especially if they contain chemicals or hazardous substances and liquids.

Cathodic Protection: By installing zinc anodes or other sacrificial anodes, you can protect the tank's surfaces from corrosion. The anodes sacrifice themselves by corroding instead of the tank's material.

Corrosion-Resistant Coatings: Applying specialized coatings both internally and externally to the tanks creates a barrier that prevents corrosion.

Ongoing Inspections and Maintenance: Regular inspections and maintenance can identify early signs of corrosion and address them before significant damage occurs.

Underground storage tanks are exposed to soil moisture and varying environmental conditions, making them prone to corrosion. Effective corrosion protection, such as cathodic protection systems, safeguards the tank’s integrity and prevents leaks that could contaminate the surrounding environment.

Above-ground storage tanks face challenges from weathering, condensation, and external environmental factors. Applying advanced coatings and corrosion prevention solutions ensures long-term durability, reducing maintenance needs and protecting the stored materials.

We are one of Scandinavia's leading suppliers of cathodic protection since 1989. Our headquarters are located in Ramlösa, Helsingborg, in southern Sweden.
