Glass-Fused-to-Steel Drinking Water Storage Tanks: From 500 Gallons to 4,000,000 Gallons
At Shijiazhuang Zhengzhong Technology Co., Ltd. (Center Enamel), we are proud to offer Glass-Fused-to-Steel (GFS) drinking water storage tanks that provide durable, reliable, and corrosion-resistant solutions for the storage of potable water. With our advanced tank technology and over three decades of expertise, we specialize in providing drinking water storage systems ranging from 500 gallons to 4,000,000 gallons, tailored to meet the specific needs of any project, whether small-scale community needs or large municipal water storage.
What is Glass-Fused-to-Steel Technology?
Glass-Fused-to-Steel (GFS) is a unique and innovative technology where a layer of glass is fused to the surface of steel at a high temperature of 820°C to 930°C. This process creates a durable, corrosion-resistant bond between the glass and the steel, resulting in a surface that combines the flexibility and strength of steel with the superior corrosion resistance and non-reactivity of glass.
GFS tanks provide a safe, reliable, and long-lasting solution for storing drinking water, ensuring the water quality remains intact and free from contamination. With its remarkable durability, GFS tanks are the ideal choice for drinking water storage in both urban and rural areas worldwide.
As a leading storage tank manufacturer in China. At Shijiazhuang Zhengzhong Technology Co., Ltd., we excel in providing high-quality bolted steel tanks tailored for the diverse needs of fish farming. Our extensive range of bolted steel tanks includes Glass-Fused-to-Steel (GFS) tanks, fusion bonded epoxy tanks, stainless steel tanks, and galvanized steel tanks, each designed to offer exceptional durability, efficiency, and adaptability for aquaculture applications.

Key Advantages of Glass-Fused-to-Steel Drinking Water Storage Tanks
1. Corrosion Resistance
The most significant advantage of Glass-Fused-to-Steel tanks is their superior corrosion resistance. The glass coating protects the steel from rust and deterioration caused by exposure to water, chemicals, and harsh environmental conditions. This makes GFS tanks a reliable choice for storing drinking water, ensuring the safety and quality of the water over the long term.
2. Long Service Life
GFS tanks are designed to last for decades. With proper maintenance, their service life exceeds 30 years, far surpassing the lifespan of traditional steel or welded tanks. This durability reduces the need for repairs and replacement, making them a cost-effective solution for long-term drinking water storage.
3. Non-Reactive Surface
The glass coating on GFS tanks is non-reactive, meaning it will not leach harmful substances into the stored water. This is essential for maintaining the quality and safety of drinking water, ensuring that no chemicals or contaminants affect the water over time.
4. Minimal Maintenance
One of the standout features of GFS tanks is their low maintenance requirements. Thanks to their corrosion-resistant and non-reactive properties, they require minimal upkeep, reducing operational costs and ensuring that the water storage system remains reliable over its lifespan.
5. Modular and Bolted Design
The modular bolted design of GFS tanks offers easy installation with reduced labor costs. The tanks are built on-site, enabling quicker construction and fewer logistical challenges. Whether it’s a small tank for a rural village or a large-scale tank for a municipal water supply, GFS tanks can be efficiently assembled to meet the specific storage needs of any project.
6. Flexibility in Sizing
Our Glass-Fused-to-Steel tanks can be customized to meet the precise water storage needs of any facility. Whether you need a small 500-gallon tank for a local community or a massive 4,000,000-gallon tank for a large city, Center Enamel can provide a tailor-made solution. The scalability of these tanks makes them suitable for a wide range of applications, from private water systems to public utilities.
7. Safe and Secure
The GFS tanks are designed with safety in mind. Their robust structure is built to withstand extreme conditions such as earthquakes, harsh weather, and physical impacts, ensuring the secure storage of drinking water at all times. With our aluminum dome roofs and reinforced structures, the tanks are built to provide both strength and security.
