The standard base design for Niplast storage tanks is flat with the outlet connection positioned slightly above through the tank wall. Whilst perfect for most applications it may be necessary to alter this arrangement to maximise the evacuation of tank contents from the storage tank.
At the design stage Niplast will determine the most efficient tank base option, informed by your particular use. We offer two alternative internal tank bases which promote product discharge from the tank.
Sloping tank base, where one side is higher than the other, with an outlet connection at the lower end of the slope.
Conical tank base, with a central pipe that empties to the side of the tank.
On the underside of both base types is a series of concentric and/or perpendicular thermoplastic fully welded ribbing, which is designed to take the whole load of the tank contents through to the tank support plinth.

Today, with over 40 years of brand heritage, Niplast is an expert in manufacturing plastic bulk storage tanks or industrial tanks to strict CEN standard BS EN 12573 and its forerunner DVS 2205.
Our long history of innovatively applying these standards to solve chemical storage problems sets us apart from other brands of underground water tanks and chemical storage solutions. Sometimes, you need to think outside of the tank!
