China Bolted Storage Tanks for Dry Bulk - Reliable Suppliers and Factory Solutions for Grains, Powders, and Pellets
Using bolted tanks (especially GFS bolted tanks) for storing dry bulk cargo essentially involves applying a high-standard, corrosion-resistant container originally designed for liquids to the field of solid bulk materials. This technology solves the problems such as moisture absorption & caking, wall adhesion & clogging, as well as abrasion & corrosion in dry bulk storage.
Compared with traditional engineering project like concrete water storage container, bolted steel tanks provided a more efficient and cost-effective solution, ensuring safe and efficient transportation and storage.
The steel substrate employed in the construction of glass-fused-to-steel tanks is a special high strength enamelled steel with a unique design and superior properties. Its mechanical properties, including yield strength, tensile strength, and elongation, far exceed those of conventional steel sheets.
- ⚡ Fast installation and short construction period
- 🛡 Excellent anti-corrosion properties
- 🏗 Low construction environment requirements
- 🌡 Strong temperature adaptability
- 🔗 Wide range of applications, seamlessly integrated to form assembled reactors
- ✨ Aesthetically pleasing appearance
- 🔄 Flexible for relocation, expansion and recycling
- 🔧 Simple maintenance and service life in excess of 30 years
The reason why GFS bolted storage tanks are used for dry bulk storage is that, with their enamel surface featuring high hardness, high smoothness and high sealing performance, they precisely solve the three major problems of dry bulk materials: fear of moisture, adhesion and abrasion.


LIDA's glass fused to steel (GFS) storage tanks are composed mainly of enamel panel, special sealant and self-locking bolts, etc. The steel plates are overlapped, bolted together and sealed with high performance seals. They are easy to be installed with a short construction period and simple to maintain.
When factory capacity needs expansion, modular tanks can be heightened by adding steel plate layers. If the plant is relocated, they can be dismantled and rebuilt off-site by removing bolts, thus preserving asset value—something that cannot be achieved with concrete structures.
