The Deckmaster GRP Advanced Composite Floating Roof is a seamless, nonmetallic full-contact floating roof. Its gastight polypropylene honeycomb core is “sandwiched” between multiple layers of fiberglass utilizing modern high-grade vinyl ester resins designed to be resistant to most hydrocarbons. The result is a smooth, seamless, and virtually indestructible full-contact floating roof that is also corrosion free, thus necessitating little or no maintenance.
The Deckmaster remains in full contact with the stored product, preventing evaporative losses. The low-profile cross section of the roof maximizes the storage capacity of the tank. Designed to accommodate both a mechanical shoe primary seal and a secondary seal, the Deckmaster is fully gastight, leak proof, and virtually unsinkable. The robust design also enables it to withstand operational stresses such as pigging and butter washing.
From diameters as large as a football stadium to large-scale external floating roof applications, this technology represents the absolute premium in floating roof performance with best-in-class emissions, corrosion resistance, ability to handle dynamic loads, buoyancy ratio, walkability, and longevity.
