Industrial & Chemical Storage Tanks

Industrial and chemical storage tanks hold the process fluids, chemicals, and bulk water that keep manufacturing, treatment, and utility operations running. Whether you need an industrial water tank for cooling and supply, a chemical storage tank matched to a specific reagent, or a process tank for mixing and blending, every build starts with one question: what are you storing? Get the compatibility right and the rest, capacity, placement, and containment, follows the application.


Need to match a tank to your chemical or process fluid? We can help. Call us at 1-863-323-0717 or contact us to discuss compatibility and sizing.





Why Choose Industrial and Chemical Tanks

  • Materials Matched to the Fluid. Chemically resistant polyethylene, fiberglass, and lined steel options, selected for compatibility with what you store.
  • Capacity Across the Range. From compact day tanks to bulk site storage, sized to your throughput and turnover.
  • Placement and Containment. Indoor or outdoor installation, with secondary containment and SPCC planning built in.
  • Configurable Options. Fittings, outlets, agitation, and fill points specified to match your pumps and process.
  • Compatibility First. Every recommendation starts with your chemical, its concentration, and temperature.



Who Uses Industrial and Chemical Storage Tanks

Facilities and EHS Teams

Compliant storage of regulated fluids, with containment and SPCC front of mind.




How to Size an Industrial Chemical Tank

Sizing an industrial or chemical tank is less about a single number and more about matching the tank to the fluid and the duty. Start with compatibility, then volume, then placement. The full method, with worksheets and worked examples, lives in the sizing guide.

Compatibility and Compliance Before you specify a tank, confirm the material against your chemical and factor in containment. Start with our chemical compatibility & SPCC guide.
1

Compatibility

What you store, its concentration, and temperature drive the tank material and gaskets.

2

Volume and Turnover

Daily use, batch size, and refill or turnover rate set the working capacity.

3

Placement and Containment

Indoor or outdoor, footprint, and SPCC or secondary containment shape the final build.






Industrial and Chemical Storage Tank FAQ

What Tanks Are Rated for Chemical Storage?

There is no single chemical tank. Suitability depends on the chemical, its concentration, and temperature. Chemically resistant polyethylene, fiberglass, and lined or stainless steel are each matched to specific fluids. A Sales Specialist can confirm the right material for your application.

How Do I Check Chemical Compatibility?

Match the tank material and gaskets to your specific chemical and concentration using a compatibility chart, then factor in containment and SPCC requirements. Our chemical compatibility & SPCC guide walks through the process.

Do You Carry Industrial-Grade Tanks?

Yes. The range covers chemical storage, mixing and process tanks, fuel and oil storage, and bulk industrial water. Tell a Sales Specialist what you are storing and we will match a build to it.
