The material: GRP does not rust
GRP does not rust or corrode and is lighter than steel or concrete. The tank wall is opaque, so light does not get in and algae do not grow.
The wall is a multi-layer GRP laminate of glass fibre and resin. On a 10,000-litre tank, 1.80 m in diameter and 4.00 m long, the wall is 18 mm thick. The thickness for your tank is stated on its data sheet.
Built to the size the site needs
Tanks are built on seven diameters from 1.20 to 3.50 m, with the length set by capacity. A narrow plot can take a 6,500-litre water tank at 1.20 m diameter; a project can have large water tanks up to 100,000 litres.
For a non-standard size the factory draughtsman prepares a dimensioned drawing that comes with the quotation, so the tank is agreed on paper before it is ordered.
A 25-year warranty with its condition in writing
The factory guarantees its tanks for 25 years from the invoice date against manufacturing defects. The condition is that the tank is installed to the installation guide sent with the quotation.
The warranty does not cover breakage caused by backfill containing rocks or by a broken concrete slab above the tank. Mechanical fittings on the tank carry a 6-month warranty.
The warranty certificate is issued in the customer's name and tied to the invoice.
Direct contact with the factory
Tanks are made to order in the factory in Dammam Third Industrial City, and enquiries are handled by the sales desk at the same factory.
A quotation arrives within one working hour, Saturday to Thursday. Delivery covers every region of Saudi Arabia and crane placement on site is available on request; each is a separate line in the quotation.
The factory holds ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 certificates for its quality, environmental and occupational health and safety management systems.

Frequently asked questions
How is a GRP tank different from a plastic tank?
They are different materials and each has its place. GRP is a glass-fibre and resin laminate that can be built to any capacity, and Laura's tanks are designed for burial. The GRP versus plastic guide compares them point by point.
Does the 25-year warranty apply only to underground tanks?
No. It applies to all Laura tanks, underground, above-ground and vertical, against manufacturing defects, subject to the installation guide.
Do you install the tank?
Laura does not excavate, pour concrete or backfill. It makes the tank, delivers it and places it by crane on request; the installation guide sets out the contractor's part.
Can I see the factory before ordering?
Yes, by arrangement with the sales desk. The factory is in Dammam Third Industrial City.
Do the ISO certificates cover the tank itself?
No. They cover the factory's management systems, not the product. The certificate numbers are on the certificates page.
How soon can I have the tank?
Common sizes are in stock; other sizes take about a week, depending on the order.
