Glass Fused to Steel (GFS) bolted panel tanks combine the strength and design flexibility of steel, with exceptional corrosion resistance and hygiene benefits of glass. GFS is an inert Vitreous Glass Enamel coating, applied to 100% of the surface area of each steel panel and fired at 830-850°C to create a mechanical and chemical fusion bond between the glass coating and the steel substrate. The finished coating has a strong resistance to algae and bacterial growth, and is excellent for potable water storage, as well as storage of a wide variety of more corrosive water and wastewater media.
The GFS coating exhibits a hard, tough surface which is impervious to liquids and vapours, and is highly UV resistant. Tasman Tanks' range of GFS tanks is available in 3 coating specifications, providing coating thicknesses ranging from 200μm to 500μm. In consultation with the designers, Tasman Tanks will select the optimal coating to suit your application, based on performance criteria & water quality data as provided by you, the client.
