Why don’t bladder tanks make it to parties? They’re too flexible to commit!
While that may have been a lame joke, it underscores the flexible nature of bladder tanks. Traditionally, we’ve been used to concrete or plastic tanks. However, bladder type water storage is becoming a popular option for scenarios like rainwater harvesting, temporary water storage, and other industrial applications.
As an industry leader, Plastic-Mart offers a diverse range of bladder tanks tailored to meet the unique needs of our customers. Our bladder tanks, including flexible pillow tanks, are renowned for their versatility, durability, and ease of installation, making them an ideal solution for various applications.
Whether you need to store potable water, gray water, or chemicals, we have the best bladder tanks for the job.
Water Bladder Tanks: Flexible, Cost-Effective, and Reliable
Water bladder tanks are an economical and adaptable solution for storing large quantities of water. Constructed from high-quality, weather-resistant materials, these tanks provide long-lasting performance. Lightweight and portable, they are easy to transport and install across various settings. With capacities ranging from 25 to 210,000 gallons, our water bladder tanks are suited for projects of any scale.
Common Materials Used in Bladder Tanks Design
Linear Low-Density Polyethylene (LLDPE)
LLDPE is a budget-friendly option ideal for non-potable water storage and applications where chemical resistance is less critical. It is lightweight and offers good puncture resistance.
Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC)
PVC is commonly used in bladder tanks for water storage, but it’s essential to check its composition, as some variants may contain chemicals that could leach into the liquid. Always verify the specific PVC type with the manufacturer for your intended use.
Nitrile Rubber
Nitrile rubber stands out for its exceptional resistance to oils and fuels, making it an excellent choice for industrial applications where these liquids are stored.

Do Not Store These Liquids in Bladder Tanks
Bladder tanks are versatile and can handle a wide range of liquids, but there are certain types of liquids that are generally not suitable for storage in these tanks. Here are some examples:
Highly Corrosive Chemicals
Strong acids (like hydrochloric acid) and strong alkalis (like sodium hydroxide) can degrade bladder tank materials, leading to leaks and failures.
Hot Liquids
High temperatures can weaken or deform tank materials, as bladder tanks are typically designed for ambient temperature storage.
Solvents
Strong solvents such as acetone, benzene, and toluene can dissolve or severely weaken the bladder tank material, causing leaks.
Petrochemicals
While some bladder tanks can store certain fuels and oils, highly volatile or reactive petrochemicals may require tanks specifically designed for such substances.
Oxidizing Agents
Strong oxidizers like hydrogen peroxide or bleach can react with tank materials, causing degradation and potential tank failure.
Biologically Active Liquids
Liquids that promote bacterial or fungal growth can lead to contamination and deterioration of the tank materials if not properly treated or stored.
Heavy Viscous Liquids
Very thick or viscous liquids can cause difficulties in filling and draining the tank, as well as putting extra stress on the tank walls, making them less ideal for bladder tanks.
