Durability
SMC (Sheet Moulding Compound) panels are made of high quality integrated Fibreglass
Reinforced Polyester (FRP). With their tough and durable surfaces,
they reduce repair and maintenance cost to zero.

Ease of Assembly
These tanks are much lighter in weight than the conventional steel or concrete tanks.
They greatly reduce loading on existing building and make transportation easier.
Panels are easily connected and put together by bolts & nuts.

Excellent Sanitation
Because the SMC panels are opaque and with excellent smooth surface finish,
they restrict the growth of bacteria and germs, and thus make water more
hygienic and cleaner than from the conventional steel and concrete tanks.
In addition, these SMC panel type water tanks were tested by the hygienic
authority in Beijing PRC & testing agency in Hong Kong for toxicity and
inhibited material and were found to be in strict compliance to GB 5749-85
& BS6920 Standard respectively for use in storage of potable water.
Furthermore, approval was awarded by the Office of Water Authority
in Hong Kong for the use of SMC type material in contact with fresh water. |

Environmental Protection Re-Use
SMC panel type water tanks are assembled by bolts & nuts. This joints are
sealed with special rubber gaskets. The unique leakage sealing method is
different to the conventional hand lay-up FRP water tanks which are sealed
by applying fibreglass mat and resin to the joints. Thus the SMC water
tanks can be dismantled and re-assembled again without difficulty. |

Versatility
The SMC panels come in 1000mm x 1000mm,
1000mm x 500mm and 500mm x 500mm with thickness
of 5mm, 10mm, 12mm, 14mm and 16mm. With
final tank size varing from 0.53M to 5003M
, the SMC panel type tanks are more
flexible to suit the environment and the available
space. |
