and pipes for acids, alkalis, fuels, foodstuffs, wine,
water and other demanding materials.

GRP applications
• Storage tanks • Containers
• Piping • Chemical plants
Crystic® chemical grade resins are typically used to
manufacture the following containers for transfer • Ducts • Sewage and water
and storage: • Scrubbers treatment plants

Chemicals handled
• Corrosive chemicals • Wine
• Fuels • Sewage
GRP tanks, containers and pipes are ideally suited • Potable water • Agricultural waste
for the safe, reliable storage and transfer of a wide • Effluents and • Animal feeds
range of demanding materials, including: contaminated liquids • Foodstuffs

Benefits of using GRP

• Lightweight, strong, tough composite structure
• Low maintenance
As well as being resilient and safe, Crystic® • Easy to clean using a high-pressure hose
polyester GRP components offer further • Repair work can be carried out in-situ, fast and
added benefits: cost effectively
• On-site system modifications are often feasible
