Storage tanks may require a tank reline or new lining to protect against many factors, whether it is a chemical resistant tank lining or a hygienic water tank lining to guard against legionella Corroless Eastern have the solution.
We have been installing seamless epoxy, polyurethane and lately polyurea tank linings for over 25 years.
By working closely with key suppliers and using our experience we can select the correct tank lining specification for your project and budget requirements.
When surveying a tank reline project it is important to carefully consider the history of the vessel for possible contamination, the parameters in which the tank lining will have to perform and how to undertake the works correctly. This is where our over 25 years’ experience in undertaking tank reline projects comes into play. Our tank linings can be applied to steel tanks, concrete tanks and grp tanks, to resolve issues such as leaking tanks and poor water hygiene.
The key to any new tank lining or tank reline project is the correct surface preparation, of which we are able to offer the full spectrum of tank lining preparation techniques. From mechanical preparation through to abrasive blasting and ultra high-pressure water jetting.
To ensure the highest quality tank linings we have our own in-house ICORR paint inspectors who ensures that all preparation standards and correct tank reline application procedures are adhered to. Once installed all tank linings and tank reline projects are thoroughly tested to ensure a seamless, defect-free finish. Our tank reline services are typically offered with a 10 year warranty, however depending on the type of tank reline being undertaken this can be extended in agreement with our tank lining suppliers.
By the nature of working within a tank the majority of our tank reline projects are within confined spaces.
To undertake all of our tank reline projects safely all of our operatives are confined space and CSCS trained. Our site supervisors are typically trained to SMSTS level or SSTS as a minimum.
This is in addition to more specific training such as PASMA, first aid, COSHH etc.
Over 25 years experience in tank linings have given us a wealth of experience to undertake your tank reline project safely and efficiently.
We can supply the following; Epoxy Tank Linings, Polyurea Tank Linings, Drinking Water Tank Linings, Chemical Tank Linings, Polyurethane Tank Linings, Reinforced Tank Linings, Flexible Tank Linings, High Temperature Tank Linings. With our wealth of experience, Corroless Eastern are the right tank lining contractor for your project.
Epoxy coatings have come to form the backbone of corrosion control since their invention, including in tank lining environments. Because epoxy coatings are such a versatile technology the endless variations and uses of epoxy tank lining cannot be listed here. Technologies such as Novalac epoxies mean that they can now be used in more aggressive and higher temperature environments than previously possible.

Cementitious linings, polymer modified cementitious and epoxy modified cementious linings have been widely used throughout industry and water treatment for the lining of concrete tanks for many years. A particular benefit of cementitous linings is that they can often be used to waterproof below ground structures. Generally cementitious tank linings are vapour permeable also meaning that they are particularly suitable for use in below ground structures.

Like epoxies polyurethanes are a very versatile technology with many varieties and uses. Not all polyurethanes are suitable for tank linings and any used should have been specifically designed for that purpose. Through different formulations polyurethanes can be made flexible, brittle or somewhere inbetween. Flexible/crack bridging materials are particularly suitable for concrete structures.

In the world of tank linings Polyurea materials are a relatively new phenomenon, with commercial applications only beginning in earnest in the 1990’s. Generally the material is applied through specialist spray equipment due to the very fast gel time of the materials which is typically below 10 seconds. The material generally offers excellent strength and flexibility with elongation properties up to 900% possible. As with epoxies and polyurethanes there are many different versions available designed for different applications.

This proven technology offers some of the highest levels of chemical resistance available when applying a protective lining. This material has been extensively used throughout chemical processing and in refinery environments due to its ability to withstand chemical attack even at elevated temperatures.
