RPX Composites- Fiberglass Tanks
As an independent division of Reparex Fabricated Systems, Inc., RPX Composites is a facility and organization dedicated to the fabrication of Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic (FRP) Tanks, Process Vessels and Structural Fabrications. FRP has been used for various types of equipment since early 1950. The strength and corrosion resistance of FRP tanks is unmatched by steel or other poly tanks. At RPX Composites, we incorporate premium resins and materials with quality controlled manufacturing to produce superior tanks. Consider the other benefits of a quality Finerglass Tank or Processing Vessel:
- Considerable savings in weight, against equivalent metal systems
- Very high strength to weight ratio
- Simple and effective jointing = lower installation costs
- Minimal maintenance cost and easy to repair
- Easily able to customize fittings and features to meet customers requirements
- Useful life of 25+ years = unmatched value for your investment
Economical - Fiberglass storage tanks offer considerable dollar savings when compared to steel tanks. Our fiberglass tanks weigh approximately 60% less than steel tanks. Installation is easier, which can save money in the long run. Also our fiberglass tanks save money because they are more durable and have a longer service life than steel tanks and similar polytanks.
