Food grade UV stabilised polyethylene water tanks are the most popular water tanks in Australia today. Using the rotational moulding process, polyethylene rainwater tanks can be economically produced and in large numbers.

What are polyethylene water tanks used for mainly?
Polyethylene water tanks are water tanks that are able to store substances that are used for all sorts of purposes. Polyethylene Water Tanks are used in a variety of industries, such as the agricultural, oil/gas, water, waste treatment and pharmaceutical industries.

How are polyethylene water tanks made?
Polyethylene tanks are made by the roto molding or the plastic welding process. Polyethylene tank welding is a process in which two pieces of heat-softened polyethylene are joined through the application of pressure. Examples of this process are hot air and extrusion welding.

What sort of plastics are used to make a polyethylene water tank?
Water tanks used for storage are made from a wide variety of polyethylene chemicals. Polyethylene is the abbreviation for Polyethyleneethylene (PE), a light, chemically- resistant thermopolyethylene, is the most commonly used polyethylene resin. Polyethyleneethylene resins include linear high density (HDLPE), cross-linked high density (XLPE) and linear low density (LLDPE) resins. Polyethylenepropylene (PP) is a light, durable thermopolyethylene that is denser, stiffer and stronger than polyethyleneethylene and has a high melting point. Polyethylenevinyl chloride (PVC) is a durable, transparent thermopolyethylene that is resistant to non-essential oils but cannot be exposed to some solvents. Polyethylenevinylidene fluoride (PVDF) is a durable thermopolyethylene that has high resistance to chemicals and abrasion.

What is the advantage of a polyethylene tank compared to traditional steel tanks?
Polyethylene tanks have several advantages over the traditional steel tanks. Their seamless construction provides them with greater impact strength and superior resistance to rust, corrosion and fuel additives.

Polyethylene water tanks are the most conventional, economical, most widely chosen water tank bought these days and we can supply Polyethylene Water Tanks  to all of Australia including Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Adelaide.
