At Poly Processing Company, we have a number of customers who have asked about the use of load cells. Load cells are used to weigh chemical storage tanks through an independent measuring system—no level measurement devices are placed in the tank itself. This allows one scale to be used to weigh a variety of tanks or chemicals without requiring anything to be installed on the tank itself.

Recently, with the help of a 3rd party leader in Polymer Engineering, we developed an enhanced OR-1000 resin. We've taken what we’ve learned in the field in the last 15 years and improved the material. Poly Processing’s exclusive OR-1000™ system was designed to address aggressive oxidation. We've recently developed a new enhanced version of the resin as an effective solution for your chemical storage needs.
In this blog we look at two types of plastic tank manufacturing, rotational molding and extrusion winding and explain how each process works and the benefits of a seamless (homogenous) tank for chemical storage. In polyethylene chemical storage tank manufacturing, there are a couple of popular processes to produce tanks. One involves rotationally molded tanks and the other is extrusion wound tanks. Each of these types of tanks are manufactured in a specific way. For some applications, the process by which a tank is manufactured is critical.

We discuss the latest in polymer composite technology for storing strong oxidative chemicals like Sodium Hypochlorite, Hydrochloric Acid, and Sulfuric Acid. Poly Processing Company commonly uses high-density crosslinked polyethylene in our chemical storage tank construction. We use an engineered polyethylene called OR-1000 system inside of our crosslinked polyethylene tanks for heavy oxidizing chemicals, ensuring durable construction and an excellent antioxidant system.
