What Is a Polyethylene Tank?
A polyethylene (poly) tank is a durable, lightweight, and corrosion-resistant container made from high-density or cross-linked polyethylene. These tanks are widely used in industrial applications to store or process water, chemicals, slurries, and food-grade products. Unlike metal tanks, polyethylene resists rust, is cost-effective, and is easier to install and transport.
