PP-coating
SaniTarp consists of a gas-tight and media-resistant PP coating. The complete sealing of the concrete elements prevents further corrosion and forms long-term protection.
Fabric base
A strong fabric backing ensures the mechanical stability of SaniTarp and meets all requirements in the harsh environment of a biogas plant. The film is fastened and welded in a corrosion-resistant manner, providing a sustainable basis for the long-term protection of your plant.
Strong resistance
SaniTarp lines the area of the container wall that is permanently in contact with gas. Thanks to high-quality material components, it can withstand acid attack over an extended period of time.
Chemical and thermal protection
Hydrogen sulphide causes serious damage to concrete walls in inadequately protected fermenters or secondary fermenter tanks. The polypropylene concrete refurbishment protection membrane protects your tank from these attacks.
Reliable protection against corrosion
Tank refurbishment with SaniTarp can take place in all weather conditions. The resistant membrane is fixed with stainless steel fasteners which are also non-corrosive. Thanks to the short installation time, the tank can be quickly put back into operation.
