FRP Pickling Tanks

“Acid-Resistant Composite Tanks Engineered for Metal Pickling, Surface Treatment & Chemical Cleaning Processes.”

Key Features

Fibrotops Composite Pvt. Ltd. manufactures high-performance FRP Pickling Tanks designed specifically for acid pickling, degreasing, rinsing, phosphating, and metal pretreatment applications. These tanks provide exceptional resistance to corrosive chemicals such as HCl, H₂SO₄, HNO₃, HF, caustic solutions, and various pickling mixtures used in galvanizing, electroplating, wire drawing, and surface treatment lines. Built using advanced FRP composites and optional thermoplastic/FRP dual laminate combinations (PP-FRP, PVC-FRP, PVDF-FRP), our pickling tanks deliver unmatched durability, long service life, and superior safety when compared to MS, MSRL, and rubber-lined tanks.

Benefits of FRP Pickling Tanks

Exceptional corrosion resistance – Withstands strong acids, alkalis and solvents far better than MS, MSRL or RCC systems.
Long operational life – Designed for industrial environments with minimal degradation over time.
Lightweight & easy installation – Reduces handling time, lifting cost and overall structural load.
High strength-to-weight ratio – Provides reliable performance under mechanical and process stresses.
Safe & non-conductive – Ideal for chemical, electrical and hazardous industrial zones.
Fully customizable – Engineered to specific temperature, SG, chemical compatibility and dimensional needs.
Lower lifecycle cost – Prevents corrosion-related failures, reducing replacement and maintenance expenses.

Applications

Primary Applications

Chemical & petrochemical plants – For handling corrosive media, process chemicals and fumes.
Pharmaceutical & API units – Suitable for pure, contamination-free process equipment and vessels.
