Dxb Solutions Tank Division is a market leader in the design and manufacture of water storage tanks for the commercial, residential and industrial .
GRP Tanks
Our GRP water tanks are designed to ISO 9001:2009/ ISO 9001:2008 and are manufactured for the storage of potable and non-potable water. Potable water tanks store drinking water and comply with WRAS standards. Conversely, non-potable water tanks are used mainly in the storage of process water predominantly associated with commercial businesses.
The tanks are lightweight and highly impervious to both corrosion and bacteria ingress, commonly found in cold water systems.
In terms of water tank sizes these range between 2000 gallons all the way up to 100,000 gallons or 367,000 litre tanks. Moreover, whilst these are supplied in the standard grey colour we can also offer specific colours to the customer’s exacting requirements.
A particularly advantages aspect to GRP tanks is that they offer virtually no maintenance.
Semi Sectional Tanks
Where space is restricted we are able to offer a two-piece water tank solution or semi sectional water tank. Moreover, our solutions can readily be passed through a doorway if access is particularly inhibited, and assembled on site with relative ease by your own Engineers to keep costs down.
Whilst our tanks are mainly suited to water storage applications, by introducing a specific resin during manufacture we can readily cater for the storage more akin to mild chemicals.
GRP Feed and Expansion Water Tanks
For more aggressive applications we can offer tanks which combine resistivity to corrosive attack synonymous with chemicals, whilst also offering flexibility and resistance to heat.
Starting in small size tanks we are adept at providing any of the above-mentioned sizes as indicated in the GRP tanks; but with the added advantage of being highly corrosive resistant and able to withstand temperatures up to 120 degrees.
Large Excell One Piece Tanks
In applications where the tank can be installed prior to the building being complete or where access is not restricted, then we can design and manufacture large one piece tanks. Our large rigid one piece water tanks hold up to 20,000 gallons or 73,400 litres and are predominantly used when constructing schools, hospitals and large buildings.
Manufactured to WRAS approved standard the large tanks are often regarded as being more favourable than the sectional offering due to minimal installation costs, no sealant or joints and low lifecycle costs.
Tank Sizing
If you are unsure as to what size tank you require, at Dxb Solutions we have designed a tank calculation tool to facilitate you in this process. Whether the end application is potable or non-potable water, our tank calculator will populate the water tank options depending upon your exacting requirements, thereby safeguarding against error.

GRP water tanks are used for all kinds of both domestic and commercial uses, including chemical storage in laboratories, for agricultural storage by farmers and also in the food and drinks industries. As an effective storage solution, GRP tanks are great at keeping their contents protected from being spoiled by changing temperatures and harmful chemicals. The dependability of these water tanks is primarily due to the material that they are made from. Glass reinforced plastic, also known as GRP and fibreglass, is a fibre reinforced polymer that is known for its strength and low production cost, making it a very dependable, long term storage solution.
Here we shall outline just some of the highly beneficial properties of GRP and why it makes a great material for making storage containers.
Corrosion resistant
Glass reinforced plastic is highly resistant to corrosion, making it an ideal material for holding substances such as chemicals. Because of its corrosion resistant properties, bacteria are far less likely to build up inside of your GRP water tank, meaning that the contents will be kept in optimum condition. It is also able to withstand harsh conditions, so your water tank be kept outdoors without the tank or its contents getting damaged by the sun.
Low maintenance
Because it does no rust or rot, glass reinforced plastic is a very low maintenance material, making it ideal for creating water tanks from. It also does not require any paint or finish, so is very useful for those who cannot prioritise the upkeep of tanks made from materials that might require more maintenance such as wood or metal.
Strong and robust
Despite being so lightweight, GRP is a very strong and durable material, equally so as most metal materials such as steel. As well as being corrosion resistant, glass reinforced plastic also has a high resistance to extreme temperatures, ultra violet light and chemicals, making it a very dependable and long-lasting material that’s guaranteed to last!
Versatile
GRP can be easily moulded and shaped, making it a very sought-after material for a range of different applications. This means that any bespoke requirements that you might have for your GRP water tank can easily be met, as virtually any shape or size can be achieved using glass reinforced plastic.
Low production cost
Because GRP is easy to produce, fabricate and shape, the production cost of creating GRP water tanks is very affordable. As well as this, GRP is a very lightweight material, meaning that there are little to no additional costs required for transporting these water tanks, as they require no heavy lifting equipment to be transported from the production site to the customer.

Glass reinforced plastic (GRP) is a composite material commonly known as fibreglass. GRP is a composite made from resin and glass, which is light weight and extremely robust and can be easily moulded to shape. GRP is strong in both tension and compression, therefore GRP is a very strong material for its weight, as the plastic outer structure orients the glass strands to best structural effect. GRP has a long life expectancy which makes it particularly suitable in highly corrosive environments
At Dxb Solutions we offer a range of GRP products alongside those made from a variety of other materials. As market leaders in the manufacture and supply of water and chemical storage tanks, we are at the forefront of innovation and development in terms of design and materials technology. We always choose the most suitable materials for each product, and we routinely advise our customers on the best choices for their projects.
It is easy to see the advantages of working in GRP when manufacturing tanks and tank housings. Large tanks are very heavy when full of water or other liquids, so in certain circumstances – for example, a rooftop water tank - the overall weight of the installation can be reduced by making the tank from GRP. The trade off is that GRP tanks must be supported across the whole of their base, ie. they cannot be mounted on rafters or cross members without additional support. Every situation is different, and we examine each case carefully before advising our customers how to proceed.
We make GRP tanks to a range of specifications, including using three different resins depending on the substance which will be stored in the tank, fire sprinkler tanks, and open topped tanks. Additionally, our one-piece steel tanks are GRP laminated to prevent corrosion and provide a hygienic and easy to clean interior. Some specifications require encapsulated insulation corrosion resistant tanks, which are also made using GRP and are designed to keep water contaminant-free at all costs.
Besides the tanks themselves, we also use GRP to manufacture tank housings and covers. A GRP housing can protect a Water tank from exposure to the weather and the corrosion which can inevitably results. Some older types of tanks may have external pipework, pumps and meters, leaving them susceptible to accidents and vandalism. Our sturdy GRP housings can be constructed to enclose not only the tank itself, but also all its peripherals too. And since GRP is so easy to work with, each enclosure can be manufactured to fit into even the most awkward space.
In cases where a traditional plant room is difficult, GRP enclosures make for a simple cost effective solution. Alternatively you could use one of our Plant tanks, this combines the water tank & plant housing into one neat unit.
Each of our GRP housings are manufactured to specification with a list of options including lockable door handles, louvered vents, door stays, plywood backboards and fire retardant resin in a range of external colours.

It is thought that a quarter of the world’s population still don’t have access to clean water. Even for those of us in developed lands, it is still our responsibility to use this resource wisely, as demand for water continues to grow due to modern lifestyles and rising populations. Dxb Solutions GRP Tank Division manufacture storage water tanks for all applications to enable households and businesses alike to collect, store and use water in a safe and efficient manner. Let’s take a look at some of the tanks available from the specialists at Tank Division.
One Piece Water Tanks & Sectional Water Tanks
Simplest is often best, and in the case of cold water tanks that translates as simple one piece water tanks being a cost effective alternative to sectional water tanks. No exposed joints or steelwork mean a reduction in maintenance and associated costs. When a new building is under construction, it is usually possible to situate the cold water tank before the structure is completed, which gives you more options when it comes to location. On the other hand, sectional water tanks can be retro-fitted to existing buildings, or used in situations where access is limited by other factors. A compromise between these two approaches is the semi-sectional tank (also known as two piece water tanks), which is similar to a sectional water tank but are designed to be easily handled and fit through doorways.
Would You be Better with a Metal Water Tank or GRP Water Tank?
As with so many other industrial items, large water tanks are traditionally made from steel, however, with Precolor’s one piece tank range now offering capacities up to 97,500L capacity GRP water tanks are a viable alternative. Comparatively lightweight, GRP one piece water tanks and sectional water tanks may be suitable for inserting into roof and plant spaces of old buildings when metal one piece water tanks would be too large and heavy. GRP is strong and corrosion resistant, making it especially suitable for potable water tanks. However, a GRP water tank must be supported across the full width of its base, so there are times when a metal water tank is preferable.
Pre-Insulated Water Tanks
External water tanks can be effected by environmental factors, particularly extremes in weather. To stop cold water tanks freezing up and damaging water tank pumps and other fittings, Precolor supply pre-insulated water tanks, which have ‘CFC’ & ‘HCFC’ free insulation foam encapsulated into the tank wall & lid to cope with seasonal changes and ensure your water supply is not interrupted when the temperature drops outdoors. A GRP housing can also be manufactured with encapsulated ‘CFC’ & ‘HCFC’ free insulation foam to enclose not only your water tank itself, but also the water tank fittings and fixtures to prevent vandalism and keep everything moving.
Water Tank Fittings and Accessories
Dxb Solutions Tank Division can provide bespoke water tanks for any and all applications, including industrial, commercial, agricultural, domestic and other properties. We also supply all kinds of water tank fittings such as pipes, valves and gauges; water tank covers, usually made from durable GRP; and water tank pumps and filters.

Why You Should Use GRP Water Tanks For Your Water Storage
When it comes to water storage, these days most people opt for the use of GRP for their water tanks. But why is this the case? GRP stands for Glass Reinforced Plastic, and is also widely known as fibreglass. It is more commonly used these days simply because it has many benefits over other more typical materials that have been used traditionally in the manufacture of water storage tanks. Today we’re going to outline four key reasons why GRP is the best material to select for your modern cold-water storage tank, and therefore why you should purchase our GRP One Piece Water Tank.
Say Goodbye to Corrosion
Whilst steel has been the main material when it comes to manufacturing water storage tanks, this material is susceptible to corrosion. To prevent this, it needs galvanising. Alternatively, the use of GRP means that it is already resistant to corrosion. Furthermore, it can withstand exposure to other liquids and materials including different chemicals, wastewater and sewage.
Long Lasting
When you opt for a GRP water storage tank, you will be able to enjoy the use of it for a whole 25 years. This length of time is much longer than other materials. Moreover, throughout its lifespan, it is not necessary to treat it, so you don’t need to spend time coating or repainting it.
Redefining Strength
Forget about being as strong as steel, with GRP water tanks you get so many benefits without having to compromise on the strength. In tests of strength, GRP has actually been shown to outperform traditional materials, including aluminium. It is the ideal material for longevity, which helps to explain why it is able to last so much longer than other options.
Light as a Feather
Despite being strong and robust, GRP is also extremely light. Whilst it would be an exaggeration to say that your water tank itself will be as light as a feather, there are many benefits to having a lightweight water tank. For example, if you need to install your water tank on a roof, it won’t need as much reinforcement, and it may not be necessary to have such heavy lifting equipment to get it in place. In turn, this means that any installation costs will be lower, capable of being installed in a larger variety of properties without needing crane access.
Overall
There is no surprise as to why the majority of modern water tanks are being made from GRP. It is corrosion resistant, long lasting, lightweight and strong. It outperforms other more traditional materials, so it is the clear, practical choice to make when purchasing and installing water tanks onto your property.
