What Is an FRP / GRP Water Tank?
An FRP water tank (Fibre Reinforced Plastic) and a GRP water tank (Glass Reinforced Plastic) are the same thing. The panels are made using the SMC (Sheet Moulding Compound) process, so you may also hear them called SMP tanks. In Singapore, most domestic water storage tanks are made of this material.
Why Choose an FRP Tank in Singapore?
A bolted-panel FRP tank in Singapore can be built to fit your available space and capacity. Panels come in 1m × 2m, 1m × 1m, 1m × 0.5m and 0.5m × 0.5m sizes. Every tank we supply complies with PUB requirements under SS245:2014 and is PSB certified, and we handle the PUB submission for you.
What Can These Water Storage Tanks Hold?
Potable water:
- Residential, condominium, industrial and shopping complex buildings
- Transfer tanks and rooftop tanks
Non-potable water:
- Cooling tower and make-up water
- NeWater and rainwater

Key Points for Installing a Water Tank in Singapore
- Plinth spacing: 1m centre-to-centre is standard. 2m centre-to-centre needs an I-beam skid base.
- Air vents: One per compartment, though consultants may specify more.
- Height limit: Potable water tanks have a maximum height of 4m. Non-potable tanks have no limit.
- Safety: Tanks 3m or taller need a roof perimeter guard rail and a safety cage for the external ladder.
