Have you ever seen a liquid storage tank and wondered what they’re being used for?

Bulk liquid storage tanks — including frac tanks, weir tanks, vac boxes and sludge tanks — are the tough and reliable industrial liquid storage container solution to most liquid storage needs.

Also known as liquid tote containers, liquid storage container tanks might be used for things like:

• Dewatering
• Groundwater management
• Stormwater management
• Dust management
• Hydroblasting

Before tank usage, your sales representative will need to understand what type of chemical you want to store in the tanks. Some chemicals need specially lined tanks that can withstand chemical corrosiveness.

Energy and Manufacturing

• Frac water storage
• Drilling and mud management
