Glass-Fused-to-Steel Tanks Built for Canadian Infrastructure

Glass-Fused-to-Steel Tanks Built for Canadian Infrastructure

The ultimate liquid storage solution: long-lasting, corrosion resistant, and engineered for low-maintenance performance.

Whether you’re storing potable water, wastewater, or biogas, Greatario’s glass-fused-to-steel tanks deliver proven durability and unmatched lifetime value. With over 60 years of field performance and coast-to-coast project experience, we build storage infrastructure that stands the test of time—and climate.

It’s often more economical to replace your existing tank with a GREATARIO glass-fused-to-steel tank.

Why Choose Glass-Fused-to-Steel for Liquid Storage?

Glass-fused-to-steel tanks combine the structural strength of steel with the superior corrosion resistance of glass. This results in one of the most resilient, cost-effective, and sustainable storage systems available for municipal and industrial use.

Engineered for Decades of Service

  • Unmatched Durability
    With no need for repainting or recoating, our tanks reduce maintenance cycles and extend asset life—saving you money and downtime.

  • Advanced Corrosion Resistance
    Our glass enamel is factory-applied using electrostatic technology, delivering full-coverage protection and superior bonding.

  • Precision Fabrication
    Colour-coded bolts and precision panels make for efficient assembly with leak-resistant seams and a clean exterior finish.

  • Fast Modular Construction
    Allows for rapid, equipment-light installation—even in remote or constrained sites.

Versatile Applications
Suitable for potable water, wastewater, industrial liquids and more.

Where Glass-Fused-to-Steel Tanks Are Used

Built to meet the most rigorous standards for municipal and industrial clients alike.

Potable Water Storage

Reliable portable water storage from 5,000 to 5 million gallons. Built to meet regulatory safety standards with minimal upkeep.

Wastewater & Sewage Systems

Wastewater and storage solutions that are perfect for clarifiers, digesters, and trickling filters. Resistant to harsh chemicals and built to endure.

Elevated Composite Tanks

Greatario composite elevated tanks offer aesthetic value with zero-maintenance performance—ideal for iconic community water towers.

Industrial Liquid Containment

Featured Project

Protecting Clayoquot Sound – Tofino’s First-Ever Wastewater Treatment Facility

Glass-Fused-to-Steel tanks supporting a landmark environmental milestone.

When the District of Tofino set out to end decades of untreated sewage discharge into the Pacific Ocean, they needed infrastructure that would last — and perform. Located within a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve and surrounded by traditional harvesting areas, the new $77 million Tofino Wastewater Treatment Plant demanded high-spec, corrosion-resistant, low-maintenance solutions.

Greatario partnered with Balmoral Tanks and NAC Constructors Ltd. to deliver glass-fused-to-steel tanks capable of withstanding Tofino’s unique environmental and regulatory challenges — while supporting a historic collaboration between federal, provincial, municipal, and Indigenous partners.

✅ Compliant with Canada’s Wastewater Systems Effluent Regulations
✅ Built for long-term reliability in coastal conditions
✅ Supports sustainable wastewater management and marine protection
