WHY IS SPIRALL BETTER ?

Comparison between Moulded chemical storage tanks and


fabricated Spiralltanks (using German technology)
Sr. No
1.

-------Raw material

Moulded (Tank)
Mixture of LDPE & HDPE powder available locally is used.
Rotomoulding grade of LDPE in Granule form is WHITE in colour,
to which Black master batch is ADDED to get UV Properties and
then EXTRUDED. Later the extruded material in granule form is
PULVERISED to be used as RAW MATERIAL for moulded tanks.
Recycling upto 10% is done.
Physical and Other Properties like corrosion resistance are
affected due to recycling.
Inconsistent Thickness due to process Limitation may affect
properties.

Fabricated Tank)
Only Imported HDPE Virgin Material
Granule Form is used.

HDPE is not available in powder form


machine accepts only granular form.
It is available in BLACK colour with U
properties already incorporated in th
material during manufacturing stage
not added afterwards.
Recycled Material is not used.

As Virgin Material is used, properties


not affected.
Process Limitation does not exist.
Thickness is constant with same
properties.

2.

Density

LDPE Density is 0.93 gm/cc. Molecular Strength is lower.


Corrosion Resistance is also lower.

HDPE Density is 0.96 gm/cc. So Hig


Molecular Strength gives higher Corr
Resistance.

3.

Manufacturing

SINGLE CONSTANT WALL

VARIABLE AND STEP WALL

Stagewise Manufacturing is not Done.

Stagewise Fabrication is possible. Mu


Process Vessels can be made.

High Wall Thickness cannot be achieved.

High Wall Thickness upto 100mm ca


easily achieved.

4.

Wall Thickness

Consistency is not present as this depends on Machine RPM and


Heat distribution. Both highly uncontrollable Factors.
Thickness consistency is most Deceptive as proper Heat
Distribution cannot be controlled Wall strength is lower.

Consistent Wall Thickness is achieve


even for Multi Process Vessels hence
Superior resistance.

Wall Thickness is independent of Hea


Machine RPM so wall thickness is con
and strength is superior.

5.

Repair

Not easily done. Needs skilled labour. Often it does not stay for a
long time and it is costly.

Very easily done with HOT AIR meth


Besides it is cheap.

6.

Finished
Product

Every application cannot be Serviced. Multi Process Area and


certain Chemicals.

Each and every application can be


independently serviced as well as a

7.

Capacity

Limited upto 20KL.

Any Capacity upto 20KL and upto 40


Besides Larger Capacities upto 100K
also be easily manufactured.

8.

Thickness
Calculation

Manufacturing is based on Raw material weight consideration.

Raw material weight does not factor
