Solico’s GRP tanks can be constructed in various complex shapes—C, U, L, T, H, O, and more—making them ideal for tight or uniquely shaped spaces. Heights range from 0.5 to 6 meters, with R&D efforts pushing toward 10-meter designs. Strategically located for fast delivery, our solutions are engineered to endure harsh weather and seismic conditions, with durability verified through rigorous testing and partnerships like that with Bridgestone Japan.

Sustainable Solutions with Global Certification
Sustainability is central to our operations, with solar-powered manufacturing and environmentally responsible processes forming the foundation of our approach. Our tanks are built from ISO-NPG resins for superior chemical and UV resistance. Certified under ISO 9001 and compliant with international standards such as AWWA D121-12, BS EN 13280, JIS A 4110, and SS 245, our products have also been independently verified by NSF, WRAS, and AS/NZS. With Solico, you gain a trusted partner delivering eco-friendly, high-performance water storage systems trusted by governments, utility providers, and global institutions alike.

What is a GRP panel type water tank?

A GRP panel type water tank is a modular water storage system made from Glass Reinforced Plastic (fiberglass). The tank is assembled using individual panels on-site, allowing for flexible sizing, easy transport, and installation in space-restricted areas.

What sizes are available for Solico GRP tanks?

Solico offers tanks ranging from 1,000 liters to 15,000,000 liters. Custom sizes and configurations are available to suit residential, commercial, industrial, and municipal requirements.

Can the tanks be installed in irregular or tight spaces?

Yes. Solico GRP tanks can be configured in various custom shapes—such as L, U, T, H, O, and C—to fit into confined or uniquely shaped spaces, making them ideal for retrofit projects or limited-access sites.

What is Hot Pressed SMC technology and why is it used?

Hot Pressed Sheet Moulding Compound (SMC) technology is a manufacturing method that produces panels with high strength, uniform thickness, and superior corrosion resistance. It ensures durability, leak prevention, and long service life, even under harsh environmental conditions.

Are Solico GRP tanks certified?
