Road transportation of fuel, chemicals and food liquids is strictly regulated by the international ADR convention and the TS EN 13094 standard. The 'sloshing' forces created by the moving liquid momentarily change the vehicle's center of gravity, creating dangers such as rollover, skidding and extended braking distance. Our GRP tankers offer engineering solutions against these dynamic forces.
ADR legislation requires the use of breakwaters to restrict free surface movement within the tank. Filling rates between 20% and 80% are the range where the sloshing effect is most severe. The lightness of GRP provides 30-40% more load capacity than steel.
