The 3500 Litre Plastic Molasses Storage Tank is purpose-built for safely storing high-specific-gravity liquids such as molasses and liquid feed. Manufactured in the UK using UV-stabilised, corrosion-resistant polyethylene, this heavy-duty tank is designed to last, with a 10-year warranty when registered and a 20-year design life.
Rotomoulded with increased wall thickness and fitted with a screened vent, it provides excellent durability and internal airflow to reduce condensation and bacterial growth. A 600mm screw lid ensures convenient access for inspection or cleaning, while the 2″ BSP bottom outlet allows controlled dispensing.
This tank is ideal for agricultural and commercial use, where secure, long-term molasses storage is essential. Available in black as standard, a translucent ‘natural’ polymer version is also offered for visual level indication.
