Rectangular Chemical Storage Tanks

Stop Shipping Air

Rectangular HDPE & polypropylene tanks engineered by James Riggins to fit where cylinders can't — inside shipping containers, frac tanks, and tight plants. Up to 18,000 gallons in a rectangular footprint, extrusion-wound walls that don't bulge, and freight savings up to 80% on day one.

By James Riggins, Lead Engineer, Liberty Chemical & Equipment Supply, Inc.

Direct answer: Rectangular chemical storage tanks fit where cylindrical tanks can't — inside 20' and 40' shipping containers, frac tanks, and tight mechanical rooms — while maximizing volume utilization and cutting freight costs by up to 80% versus comparable cylindrical tanks. Extrusion-wound HDPE and polypropylene construction, without external cages, supports capacities up to 18,000 gallons and an optional 110% double-wall "tank-in-a-tank" containment configuration.

The Riggins Multiplier: Rectangular Tanks That Pay for Themselves Day One

Most plastic tank “problems” are not material problems — they're geometry and spec problems. Round tanks waste space in square footprints. Rectangular geometry engineered to cut freight costs by up to 80% versus comparable cylindrical tanks, while maximizing volume inside standard containers, trailers, frac tanks, and tight mechanical rooms.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose a rectangular tank instead of a cylindrical tank?

Rectangular geometry fits where cylinders can't — inside shipping containers, frac tanks, and tight plants — while maximizing volume utilization and cutting freight costs by up to 80% versus comparable cylindrical tanks.

What's the maximum capacity for a rectangular tank?

Typically up to 18,000 gallons in a rectangular footprint, engineered with extrusion-wound walls that don't bulge under repeated fill-and-drain cycles.

Do rectangular tanks fit standard shipping containers?

Yes — rectangular tanks are commonly engineered to fit inside 20' and 40' shipping containers, a key advantage for facilities needing containerized or mobile chemical storage.
