What Makes a Water Tank UV-Resistant?
At Arkaganga, we understand that long-lasting water storage begins with strong protection—especially against the harsh Indian sun. A UV-resistant water tank is engineered to withstand prolonged exposure to ultraviolet (UV) rays without degrading, cracking, or leaching harmful chemicals into stored water. But what makes it UV-resistant?
The secret lies in UV-stabilized raw materials. We use food-grade polyethylene (LLDPE) enhanced with UV stabilizers—special additives that absorb or reflect UV radiation. This prevents the breakdown of polymer chains, which typically causes brittleness, fading, or surface chalking in ordinary plastic tanks.
Our tanks also feature multi-layer construction, especially with a black or outer colored layer that blocks sunlight. Some Arkaganga tanks include a carbon black layer or special reflective pigments that deflect harmful rays, maintaining structural strength and preventing heat buildup inside the tank.
Why is this important? Prolonged UV exposure not only weakens a tank’s durability but can also encourage algae growth if light enters the tank. UV-resistant tanks ensure your stored water stays clean, safe, and cool—even in extreme summers.
At Arkaganga, every tank is UV-tested as per IS 12701 standards, assuring you of long-term performance and safety. Whether it’s a 500-liter domestic tank or a 10,000-liter industrial solution, our UV-resistant technology ensures your investment stands the test of time.
