Rotational Moulding Process of Plastic Water Storage Tank and its Benefits

Rotational moulding also is known as rotomolding is a process of producing small or large hollow seamless plastic components such as plastic water storage tanks. This process is very popular in tanks manufacturing and most water tank manufacturers of hollow type plastics prefer this method of manufacturing including Penguin Tank. There are several benefits attached to this process. Let us discuss in detail.

Many Sizes

This is one of the biggest advantages as this process can mold tiny sixes to an extremely large size such as water tanks. There is a big room of flexibility with rotomolding process as compared to other systems. Different sizes of water tanks can be molded according to the requirement in the rotational molding process.

Different Designs

In the rotational molding process, hot plastic is put into the mold and therefore the item will automatically take the shape of the mold. This gives a greater flexibility for creativity in terms of different shapes and designs of the water tank.

Uniform Wall Thickness

Since the centrifugal force applied to the molten plastic remains consistent throughout the rotomolding process, therefore the wall thickness of the entire product remains equal and consistent with no thin areas. This makes the tank stronger and therefore prevents bursting in the future.

Inserts

This process easily accepts metal inserts at the time of production. It is comparatively economical than any other processes. Also, assembling techniques can be easily altered in the rotomolding process which is highly durable in all dimensions.

Faster Production

Rotational molding process takes a shorter time to finish the manufacturing process of any product. It could take around three to four months which is comparatively faster than the other plastic molding processes.

Quality Surface Finish: This process offers the best quality surface finishing by taking the exact shape of the mold and the texture without any seam. Therefore it enables a high-quality gloss finish on the tank surface along with a smooth, artistic and oriental finish.

Perfect Color sectioning

Colour sectioning is much easier with the rotomolding process. Penguin water storage tanks are the best example of the same. They offer a wide variety of color options that are beyond one’s imagination. Check out the options today to believe your own eyes.

Let's learn to conserve water while doing laundry. Save Water!

In the previous month’s blog, we focussed on some water saving tips in the garden.

Water saving is not limited or restricted to a single area. In fact, we can save a large amount of water while doing the laundry as well. Let us follow these simple tips and save water as much as we can. Let us get started.

Reuse towels:

The bath towels that we use every day does not need to be washed every day. Instead, we can hang it after using it in the sun outside to dry. The same towel can be easily used for a couple of times without actually washing it.

Use energy saver washing machines:

There are many energy saver machines available in the market. When you go to buy a washing machine, do check for this feature. These machines use less water and less energy with the help of advanced technology.

Use machine when fully loaded:

Do not run the machine for a small pile of dirty clothes. Keep it aside and let a bigger pile build up to be washed it all together. It does not make sense to wash fewer clothes and make the machine run again and again. This way both water and energy will be saved.

Wear clothes more than once if not dirty:

Some clothes can be easily worn twice or more without actually washing it every time you wear it. For example, jeans or a sweat jacket. These clothes can be hanged to dry under the sun and can be worn again.

Use less hot water and more cold water:

Turning cold water into hot water consumes a lot of energy and water gets wasted too. So, use water that is available – warm or cold and save on water energy costs.

Pre-treat stains before washing:

Some bad stains need to be treated before washing them with a stain remover using hands or a brush. In the first wash itself these stains will come out and you need not wash the same clothes again and waste water unnecessarily.

Check for leaks at regular intervals:

The fittings and connections might leak over time. It needs to be checked at regular intervals to fix and repair any such leaks.

Collect rain and grey water:

Start collecting rainwater and grey water as these can be used to wash the stairs or cars or any such things outside the home. It can also be used to water the plants.

So, start saving while doing laundry. Penguin Tank, a renowned plastic water storage tank manufacturer highly recommends the same.

Today we will focus on water conservation tips for the garden. Gardening is a water-intensive activity. Just think how much water gets wasted every day while watering your garden. However, it is possible to save water in the garden by following one or more of the following:

Water at the best time :

The best time to water the garden is in the morning and early in the evening as there is less evaporation due to the cool temperature. It also needs time to let the surface dry to the avoid fungus that can destroy the plants.

Use the right amount of water:

Most of us make a mistake of over watering plant and hence we promote wastage. For instance, clay-based soils require less water and light sandy soils need to be watered more. So, water them carefully.

Check weather and soils:

Consider the climate such as high humidity, freezing cold weather, windy, rainy or dry and the type of soil while watering the garden. Soils vary with location and adding mulch on top of the soil prevents moisture from evaporating. Add organic matter to the soil to improve texture and retain moisture. Compost is also a good option to retain moisture.

Collect rainwater and reuse water:

During the rainy season, collect rainwater in buckets and water the plants with these as they have natural nutrients. Reuse water from baths, washing machines, wastewater from water purifiers, and cooking while gardening.

Plant water conserving trees and shrubs:

Select drought-tolerant plants to save water. Prefer locally grown plants as they have adapted to the nature and climatic conditions of your area. Try to group the plants together in order to water them easily and more efficiently. In case if you have planted in containers, place the big ones around them. They will save the small plants from evaporating.

Select water techniques wisely:

Implement these amazing techniques while watering your garden and you can save a good amount of water. These include sprinklers, seep hoses, hoses, watering cans, and automated irrigation systems.

By following the above, you can save a huge amount of water while gardening. Water is scarce, let’s save it whenever and wherever we can. Penguin Tank is doing so, are you?

Why The Color of a Water Storage Tank Makes a Big Difference?

Why The Color of a Water Storage Tank Makes a Big Difference?

There are many considerations for buying a water storage tank. Some of them include the need, size, type, material, longevity, and also the color. Aesthetics play an obvious role while considering the color apart from the safety and need. The firsts and foremost factor is the material of the tank. Which one you choose- steel, fibreglass, concrete or a plastic tank?

Depending upon the material, the color selection of the water tank comes into the picture. Steel galvanized, fibreglass or any other type apart from a plastic water tanks does not have much to offer when it comes to the color options. Some colors available with these types are green, tan, blue, red and grey depending on the manufacturer. While in case of plastic water storage tanks, the color choices are unlimited. At the same time, these tanks are strong, durable and lightweight. The plastic tanks are made using the same grade of material i.e. low linear density polyethylene (LLDPE) which has the highest strength and durability.

The standard colors of a plastic tank are black, green and tan. Nowadays a number of attractive colors are available to choose from. Some include parrot green, baby pink, violet, lemon green, bright orange, and golden yellow. The dark-colored tank blocks the maximum light and prevents the growth of algae. Algae is the green colored stuff floating on the banks of water which is harmful for human consumption. Algae growth takes place due to ultraviolet rays of the sunlight. When UV rays come in contact with water, algae grow. Apart from this, choosing the right color that blends into the environment well is equally important. The saying ‘Go Green’ can be promoted quite well by using an appropriate colored plastic water tank.

Selection of a color entirely depends upon the buyer’s preference. Some still prefer the traditional old colors while some are explorers and invest in the new colors available at Penguin Tank. More consumers are trying different colors at present as the quality remains the same. If you get the best quality in a better and more attractive way, then why not choose it.

Know the Meaning of Rotational Moulding of Polyethylene Water Tanks. How is it done?

Know the Meaning of Rotational Moulding of Polyethylene Water Tanks. How is it done?

Nowadays, polyethylene water storage tanks are trending. Due to its popularity and availability, most manufacturers are focussing on the manufacture of this type. The main elements used to manufacture polyethylene water tanks are water tank molds, polyethylene powder and gas fired ovens. It was discovered many years ago but reached its potential only after the commercialization of its production.

The basic raw material used to roto mold water tanks is Linear Low-Density Polyethylene(LLDPE). LLDPE has a high degree of short and long chain branching which gives molten LDPE its desirable flow properties. It is most suitable for manufacturing of water tanks. This process is known as free radical polymerization.

Rotomolding is one of the most popular plastic molding techniques. In this process, a measured quantity of powdered polyethylene resin is placed into the mold of the tank. The powder is then compounded and mixed to include the desired color. Additionally, UV stabilizer is added to make sure that the color does not fade away when exposed to sun rays and a release agent to remove the tank from the mold is also included. The oven needs to be preheated before the mold is placed there. After placing it in the oven, the mold is rotated bi-axially in order to coat the inside of the mold evenly. Be careful with the time spent in the oven. The tank should neither be overcooked or undercooked. Both the situation will lead to defects and imperfections in the tank. The entire manufacturing process is computer controlled. After removing the mold from the oven, it has to be cooled properly. The cooling process allows the polyethylene to set and to shrink slightly in order to remove the tank from the mold. This is the most critical step in ensuring a perfect tank. After the mold has cooled enough, remove the tank. And you are ready to repeat the process to make another one.

Most tank manufacturers try to make as many water tanks as possible without changing the mold. Changing the mold every time will add a lot to the cost of production. This is the newest technology in the manufacture of polyethylene water tanks. This makes the tank stronger, durable and completely safe for human consumption. Water stored in these LLDPE water tanks can be used for different household and commercial purposes without a worry.
