Tank Lining for a Manufacturing Facility in Northern California

The Challenge

The pet food factory had an open water-storage tank for fire-suppression and irrigation purposes at the plant. The concrete foundation of the tank had numerous large cracks resulting in significant water loss. Due to leakage there was a muddy area outside the tank overgrown with weeds.

The Solution

The tank was drained and dried to provide a clean surface for application. The sides at the bottom were sandblasted to remove rust and blemishes for proper surface preparation.

The Results

With this GROUNDGUARD™ installation, the tank was refilled with water and returned to service in two days. The leakage problems were eliminated and the mud around the tank dried out so the weeds stopped growing. The client saved on their water bills while being able to forgo the cost and permitting required to build and install a new tank.
