Aqua Cube’s glass-fused-to-steel (GFS) modular water tanks (also known as enamel tanks) are advanced storage solutions engineered for exceptional durability, long service life, and superior water purity. These tanks are assembled on-site using special glass-enamel steel plates, self-locking bolts, sealants, stirrups, and accessories, allowing fast and cost-effective installation without heavy equipment.
Glass-fused-to-steel (GFS) modular water tanks combine the mechanical strength of steel with the superior corrosion resistance of glass. This proven technology delivers long-term performance, hygiene, and structural stability for large-scale and demanding storage applications. As a supplier, Aqua Cube ensures that each tank system meets project-specific requirements while offering efficient installation and long-term value.
GFS tanks are constructed from special enamel-coated steel plates assembled on-site using bolted connections and sealing systems. The steel plates are manufactured from titanium-containing enamel hot-rolled steel, developed in cooperation with first-tier steel producers, ensuring consistent quality and performance.
GFS tanks are produced by firing molten glass onto steel plates at temperatures between 820°C and 930°C. This process creates a permanent, corrosion-resistant bond that fully utilizes the flexibility of steel and the chemical resistance of glass.
The modular bolted construction allows tanks to be installed quickly, expanded in volume, relocated, or reconfigured as operational needs change. This design significantly reduces installation time, labor requirements, and overall project cost.
The smooth, non-porous glass surface resists algae, bacteria, and chemical reactions. This makes GFS tanks suitable for potable water and process applications while minimizing cleaning requirements and operational downtime.
Glass-fused-to-steel tanks are built for strength, corrosion resistance, and long-term reliability. Each tank is assembled from precision-engineered enamel steel panels designed to withstand mechanical loads, aggressive media, and harsh environmental conditions.
The molten glass coating provides outstanding resistance to corrosion and wear, validated through decades of global installations in demanding applications.
Glass-fused-to-steel tanks are classified by end use, with each application requiring specific corrosion resistance levels, sealing performance, and structural design. Their adaptability makes them suitable for a wide range of storage and process requirements.
Designed to ensure hygienic water storage, GFS tanks provide safe drinking water for public and private water supply systems while maintaining long-term water quality.
GFS tanks are widely used in wastewater treatment plants for storing wastewater, sludge, and process liquids. Their resistance to aggressive media and fluctuating conditions ensures stable performance.
These tanks function as process tanks for biogas digesters and gas storage, offering structural integrity, sealing reliability, and chemical resistance.
GFS tanks store process water, fire protection water, cooling water, and industrial liquids. Their durability makes them ideal for industrial process equipment and emergency systems.
Can be used for agricultural water, effluent, liquid fertilizers, and manure storage. These tanks resist corrosion from organic and chemical substances while supporting large-volume storage.
Glass-fused tanks can also store bulk materials such as grain, cement, limestone, fly ash, salt, and other dry or semi-wet materials, as well as stormwater retention and reuse systems.
Aqua Cube supplies glass-fused-to-steel tank systems tailored to each project’s technical and operational requirements. Our process ensures efficient on-site assembly, reliable performance, and long-term durability.
Tank panels are selected based on capacity, height, and application-specific corrosion requirements. Panel thickness and enamel performance are matched to the intended use.
Each tank is engineered according to its application, ensuring proper sealing performance, structural integrity, and compliance with operating conditions. Detailed drawings and layouts are provided to support installation.
A properly prepared concrete foundation is essential. The base must be level and capable of supporting the tank load, ensuring even stress distribution and long service life.
Aqua Cube offers standard configurations and some customized solutions. Tank volume is easily expandable, and the tank itself is transferable. Inlet and outlet locations, roof type, access systems, and special requirements are defined during the ordering stage to ensure a precise fit.
GFS tanks are suitable for potable water, industrial liquids, and aggressive media within enamel chemical resistance limits. With correct installation and operation, service life may exceed 30 years.
Glass-Fused-to-Steel tanks are designed for efficient operation with minimal maintenance. Proper usage and routine inspections help preserve performance and extend operational life.
These tanks support continuous operation in potable water, wastewater, industrial, and agricultural applications. The glass-enamel lining protects against corrosion, scaling, and chemical attack.
