Description
The Gentex Water Tank is specially designed to be light and durable for storage purposes. Gentex is one of the prominent tank manufacturers and suppliers in East Africa. The gentex water tank has been designed keeping in the view the needs of all kinds of applications be it commercial, industrial and domestic.
Gentex manufactures water tanks in various capacities from 500 litres to 10,000 litres.
Gentex uses blow moulding technology to produce its tanks. Blow moulding is a highly developed moulding technology. Developed back in the late 1800’s. it is a very versatile manufacturing option. At Gentex, they manufacture ‘3 layer’ moulded tanks. The process starts with a good quality mould that is placed in a moulding machine. The moulding machine has a loading, heating and cooling area. The process also has very unique features such as consistent wall thickness and strong outside corners which, are virtually stress free.
A good quality plastic tank will have an expected life span of about 30 years. Press the surface of the tank inwards, to see if it is flexible. This can be used as a durability test.
The plastic should be firm but flexible, so that, when water is poured into the tank the surface of the tank expands. If the plastic is hard and brittle, then the tank stands a chance of cracking or bursting.
