Dura-Tech has been building fiberglass products for the wastewater treatment industry since 1986. From tanks and covers to ventilation ductwork, equipment enclosures, and custom components, fiberglass is a practical material choice for treatment facilities that need corrosion resistance, long service life, and dependable performance in harsh environments.
Wastewater treatment facilities expose equipment to moisture, chemicals, gases, outdoor weather, and corrosive operating conditions. Fiberglass reinforced plastic, or FRP, is well suited to these environments because it will not rust, is lightweight compared to many traditional materials, and can be fabricated into custom shapes, sections, and components.
Dura-Tech can design and fabricate wastewater treatment products around your facility’s requirements, including tank size, duct layout, equipment access, cover dimensions, corrosion resistance needs, installation conditions, and long-term maintenance goals. Products can be built for new facilities, plant upgrades, replacements, retrofits, and custom site-specific applications.
For wastewater projects, Dura-Tech can provide fiberglass domed covers, ventilation ducts, utility enclosures, pipe reducers, access hatches, custom covers, and specialty FRP components. Delivery and installation support is available for many products, helping ensure that the finished system fits the site and is ready for service.

Why fiberglass for wastewater treatment?
Fiberglass is a strong material choice for wastewater treatment environments because it resists corrosion, does not rust, and can provide long service life with low maintenance. This makes it especially useful for tanks, covers, ducts, enclosures, and components that are exposed to moisture, wastewater gases, chemicals, and outdoor conditions.
FRP is also lightweight, which can make transportation, lifting, and installation easier compared to heavier materials. For retrofits or plant upgrades, this can be especially valuable when components need to be installed around existing equipment, piping, catwalks, or restricted site access.
Fiberglass also offers design flexibility. Covers can be built in custom sections, ductwork can be fabricated to fit existing equipment layouts, and enclosures can be built in modular sections for shipping and on-site assembly. This helps wastewater facilities solve practical fit, access, corrosion, and maintenance challenges.
Wastewater treatment applications
Dura-Tech fiberglass products can be used across many parts of a wastewater treatment facility. Domed covers can help protect tanks, support odour control, and reduce exposure to weather. Ventilation ducts can move corrosive air through fans, scrubbers, vents, and odour control systems. Utility enclosures can protect pumps, controls, mechanical equipment, and site infrastructure.
Custom FRP tanks and components can also be fabricated for process water, chemical storage, sludge handling, containment, equipment protection, or site-specific treatment requirements. For projects where standard products do not fit, Dura-Tech can work from drawings, dimensions, site conditions, or design requirements to fabricate a custom solution.
