Center Enamel – China’s Leading Floating Roof Tank Manufacturer
In the dynamic landscape of global industrial infrastructure, the need for safe, efficient, and environmentally responsible storage solutions is paramount. From the vast crude oil terminals to the intricate petrochemical plants and water treatment facilities, the integrity of stored liquids directly impacts operational continuity, safety, and environmental compliance. At the forefront of addressing these critical demands stands Shijiazhuang Zhengzhong Technology Co., Ltd (Center Enamel), a recognized leader in the design, manufacturing, and global supply of cutting-edge floating roof tanks. With over three decades of unwavering commitment to excellence, Center Enamel has not only established itself as China's premier manufacturer of internal and external floating roofs but has also become a trusted partner for industries across more than 100 countries worldwide.
The Imperative of Floating Roof Technology
Traditional fixed-roof tanks, while serving their purpose, present inherent challenges when storing volatile liquids. The constant vapor space above the liquid surface in these tanks can lead to significant issues:
Evaporation Losses: Valuable product can evaporate into the atmosphere, leading to substantial economic losses and reduced profitability.
Emission of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs): The escape of VOCs contributes to air pollution, greenhouse gas emissions, and non-compliance with increasingly stringent environmental regulations.
Fire and Explosion Hazards: The accumulation of flammable vapors within the tank's vapor space creates a significant risk of fire and explosion, posing threats to personnel, assets, and surrounding communities.
Floating roof tanks emerge as a superior solution, directly addressing these challenges by eliminating or significantly minimizing the vapor space. Whether internal or external, these innovative roofs float directly on the surface of the stored liquid, rising and falling with the liquid level. This ingenious design offers a multitude of benefits that are critical for modern industrial operations.

The Anatomy of Excellence: Center Enamel's Floating Roof Solutions
Center Enamel offers both Internal Floating Roof (IFR) and External Floating Roof (EFR) systems, each meticulously engineered to deliver optimal performance.
Internal Floating Roofs (IFRs)
Designed to be placed inside a fixed-roof tank, IFRs offer an additional layer of protection and control.
Minimized Vapor Loss: By floating directly on the liquid surface, IFRs drastically reduce the vapor space, significantly cutting down evaporation losses of valuable products like crude oil, gasoline, and chemicals. This translates to substantial economic savings and resource conservation.
Enhanced Safety: The physical barrier created by the IFR prevents the accumulation of flammable vapors, thereby reducing the risk of fire and explosion within the tank. This is crucial for industries handling highly volatile and combustible substances.
Emission Control: IFRs are highly effective in controlling the emission of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) and other hazardous air pollutants, helping companies meet strict environmental regulations and reduce their carbon footprint.
Product Purity: The enclosed design protects the stored liquid from external elements like rain, snow, and wind, maintaining product purity and preventing contamination or oxidation.
Corrosion Protection: By minimizing the exposure of the tank's internal shell to corrosive vapors, IFRs contribute to the longevity of the tank structure.
Lightweight Design: Center Enamel's IFRs are engineered to be lightweight, reducing structural load on the tank and facilitating easier installation and maintenance.
Advanced Sealing Mechanisms: Our IFRs incorporate sophisticated sealing systems, often made from high-grade, weather-resistant rubber or plastic, to ensure a tight seal between the roof and the tank wall, maximizing vapor containment and preventing leakage.
External Floating Roofs (EFRs)
EFRs consist of an open-topped cylindrical steel shell with a single or double-deck roof that floats on the liquid surface.
Superior Vapor Emission Reduction: EFRs are especially effective in environments where maximum vapor control is critical. By eliminating the vapor space entirely, they dramatically reduce VOC emissions to the atmosphere, aligning with the most stringent environmental mandates.
Fire and Explosion Risk Mitigation: With no vapor space above the liquid, the risk of fire and explosions is significantly minimized, making EFRs a preferred choice for storing highly volatile and flammable liquids.
Cost Efficiency through Product Preservation: The direct contact with the liquid surface virtually eliminates evaporation, preserving valuable product and translating into significant financial savings over time.
Robust Construction: Center Enamel's EFRs are built with high-quality aluminum or steel, chosen for their excellent corrosion resistance and long service life even under harsh environmental conditions.
Efficient Sealing Systems: We employ robust sealing mechanisms, including primary mechanical shoe seals and secondary rim seals, designed to maintain close contact with the tank wall and product surface, ensuring airtight storage integrity and preventing environmental contaminants from entering.
Adaptability: EFRs are designed to adapt to varying liquid levels, ensuring the roof remains in constant contact with the liquid without needing complex adjustments.
Double-Deck Options: For enhanced insulation and further reduction of evaporative losses, especially in high-capacity crude oil terminals, Center Enamel offers double-deck floating roofs with advanced drainage systems to handle large volumes securely.
