Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic (FRP) Tank Linings

Since 1923, Moon Fabricating Corporation has protected industrial tanks and equipment from corrosion. Our fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) linings combine a polymer resin with reinforcing fibers to protect against the caustic materials, stress, and wear that cause tank failures.

Why choose FRP

Six Reasons FRP Earns Its Place

Superior Corrosion Resistance

FRP stands up to caustic and corrosive materials, helping prevent both corrosion and the stress fractures corrosion causes.

Extended Equipment Life

Properly applied FRP linings can help prevent internal corrosion and leaks for 10 to 20 years. Where a steel tank bottom has already developed small perforations, FRP can bridge the gap — a far less costly fix than replacing the tank bottom outright.

Lower Maintenance Costs

FRP-lined tanks need less frequent repainting or re-sealing, reducing both staff time and outside service costs.

Heat Resistance

FRP maintains its corrosion resistance even at elevated temperatures, adding an extra layer of protection in extreme conditions.

Faster Installation, Less Downtime

Lining with FRP is quicker than replacing a tank bottom, getting your equipment back in service sooner.

Lightweight, Versatile Construction

FRP is strong and durable but lighter than many alternatives, and can be shaped to fit a wide range of tanks and piping — including non-circular designs.

Systems we offer

Types of FRP Linings

  • Standard FRP Linings — premium vinyl ester resin reinforced with E-glass fiber, offering strong resistance to acids, caustics, and solvents for most chemical processing applications.
  • Chemical-Specific FRP Systems — formulated for specific aggressive exposures, including sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, caustic service, and oxidizers.
  • Abrasion-Resistant FRP — built for tough abrasion applications like bins, hoppers, chutes, flumes, and silos handling mineral slurry, fly ash, coal, ore, and sand — a strong choice for ball mills, wheelabrators, and shot blast cabinets.

Built to Standard

Our FRP linings meet ASTM D5421, the standard covering FRP installation in metal tanks, pipes, and components, and our application procedures follow NACE International guidelines for corrosion protection performance.

Keep your FRP lining performing at its best with regular inspection, proper cleaning protocols, temperature monitoring within the lining's rated range, and a compatibility check before introducing any new chemical.
