Short Construction Period, Lasting Purity: The Unrivaled Advantage of Glass-Fused-to-Steel Bolted Tanks for Drinking Water
As the global population grows and urban centers expand, the demand for reliable, safe, and rapidly deployable drinking water storage solutions has never been more critical. Municipalities, industrial facilities, and rural communities alike face the challenge of expanding infrastructure quickly while ensuring the highest standards of water quality and long-term durability. This is where bolted steel tanks, particularly those featuring Glass-Fused-to-Steel (GFS) technology, emerge as the superior choice, offering an unparalleled combination of a short construction period and uncompromising quality for potable water storage.
At Shijiazhuang Zhengzhong Technology Co., Ltd. (Center Enamel), we understand that time is often of the essence in critical infrastructure projects. Our GFS bolted tanks are engineered precisely to meet this need, transforming complex construction projects into streamlined, efficient installations.
As a leading storage tank manufacturer worldwide. Center Enamel can provide Glass Lined Steel(GLS) tanks, fusion bonded epoxy tanks, stainless steel tanks, galvanized steel tanks and aluminum geodesic dome roofs, Wastewater and Biogas Project Equipments for global customers.

The Power of Bolted Design: Speed and Efficiency
The core advantage of bolted steel tanks lies in their innovative modular design. Unlike traditional field-welded steel tanks or poured concrete reservoirs, which demand extensive on-site labor, specialized equipment, and can be heavily impacted by weather conditions, bolted tanks are different:
Factory-Manufactured Precision: Each steel panel is precisely cut, drilled, and coated in our controlled factory environment. This pre-fabrication minimizes on-site work and ensures consistent quality.
Rapid On-Site Assembly: Panels arrive at the site ready for assembly. Skilled crews simply bolt them together using specialized gaskets and sealants. This "erect and connect" method drastically reduces construction time, often completing tanks in weeks, not months, compared to welded or concrete alternatives.
Reduced Labor and Equipment Needs: Less time on-site means fewer labor hours, reduced reliance on heavy machinery, and lower associated costs, all contributing to a faster project delivery.
Weather Independence: Factory coating and modular assembly mean less vulnerability to adverse weather conditions, preventing costly delays that plague traditional construction methods.
Glass-Fused-to-Steel: The Gold Standard for Drinking Water Purity
While speed is crucial, it must never come at the expense of safety and hygiene, especially when storing potable water. This is where Center Enamel's GFS technology truly shines:
Unrivaled Purity and Hygiene: Our GFS tanks feature an inert, smooth, and non-porous glass surface that is chemically fused to the steel at extreme temperatures (820-930°C). This creates an impenetrable barrier that actively prevents bacterial growth, algae formation, and the accumulation of contaminants. The glass does not leach into the water, ensuring the stored drinking water remains clean, safe, and free from impurities.
Exceptional Corrosion Resistance: The fused glass coating provides superior resistance to corrosion from water impurities, treatment chemicals, and environmental factors. This eliminates the risk of rust, degradation, or internal coating breakdown, which are common concerns with other tank materials. Our GFS tanks are built to last for decades, often exceeding 30-50 years, with minimal maintenance.
AWWA D103-09 Compliance: Center Enamel's Glass-Fused-to-Steel tanks are meticulously engineered and manufactured to meet stringent international standards, including AWWA D103-09 (American Water Works Association Standard for Factory-Coated Bolted Carbon Steel Tanks for Water Storage) and NSF/ANSI 61 (Drinking Water System Components – Health Effects). This ensures that our tanks are not only structurally sound but also safe for potable water contact.
Low Maintenance, Long-Term Savings: The inherent durability and corrosion resistance of GFS tanks translate directly into minimal ongoing maintenance requirements. There's no need for periodic repainting or recoating, significantly reducing operational expenses over the tank's extensive lifespan.
