- Longer lasting
- Improved structural stability
- No bulging/elephant feet
- No need for repainting or replacements

- Easy to make repairs or modify tanks post-production
- Tanks are repairable
- Polypropylene tanks for chemicals up to 180 °F
What Makes Our Products Great
Many of our clients report tank failure due to bulging in thin-walled, roto-molded tanks. When these competitor tanks fail to meet their needs, our customers turn to us to help.
We solve problems like these with our industry-leading tanks, which are:
- Structurally Sound: Our tanks are the high-performance alternative to traditional carbon and stainless steel, fiberglass, and roto-molded plastic tanks.
- Low Maintenance: Our tanks are essentially maintenance-free; no need to sandblast or repaint because tanks are colored by an additive to the plastic.
- Long Lasting: Our tanks have walls up to three inches thick; they don’t buckle, bulge, oxidize, or corrode like other tanks.
- The Ideal Solution for Challenging Applications: Our tanks are the perfect solution for storing even the strongest and hardest-to-contain chemicals; our clients use our tanks to store sulfuric acid, sodium hypochlorite, nitric acid, and hydrochloric acid.
- Tanks Are Perfect As Reactor & Process Applications
Our team manufactures to the highest of standards. Our tanks are available in high-density linear polyethylene and polypropylene models. We always work with:
- FDA approved materials
- Certified Welders of Thermoplastic Welding
- A rigorous quality control process (we monitor and document QC requirements throughout the manufacturing process)
- A mandatory 24-hour hydro test to ensure integrity
- Further air tests upon client request

Houston Polytank: Your Source For Large-Volume Tanks
Houston PolyTank, LLC formed in 2010 to introduce the extrusion wound plastic tanks to the United States market. The company formed a partnership between a steel manufacturing company, J.L. Houston. The manufacturing plant was built from the bottom up in Hopkins, Missouri. Six months later, we started production of the extrusion wound plastic tanks.
Today, the company doubled the number of original molds and has the capability of manufacturing 50 to 50,000 gallon plastic tanks. Houston PolyTank has customers all around the U.S. and Canada, and our tanks are installed and operating from Long Island in the East Coast to Southern California in the West and Alaska.
