Glass fused to steel (GFS) tanks are a type of bolted storage tank made from two materials: glass and steel. High strength TRS (titanium rich steel) plates and enamels are perfectly fused at high temperatures to form a highly inert inorganic glaze layer. This coating system has excellent anti-corrosion properties and is the best choice for tank and silo.
YHR Tanks, as an experienced glass fused to steel tank manufacturers, has consistently concentrated on the research and production of glass-fused bolted steel tanks since the mid-1990s. After over two decades of continuous dedication, our glass fused water tanks have found extensive applications in domestic municipal, environmental protection, aquaculture, and various other fields. Additionally, they have been exported to international markets.
