It is hard to miss the Apple Basket tank as you ride up Interstate 81 in Virginia.  Many people think the images on this this incredible water storage tank are some sort of stickers or vinyl(those don't work very well on water storage tanks), but in fact is a premier Tnemec HydroFlon coating system.  Completed in 2105, this tank now acts as a national land mark to millions of travels a year in addition to being a functional water storage tank.  Both the inside(where the potable water is stored) and outside are protected from the exposures for maximum corrosion resistance and the longest possible lifecycle using high performance coatings. With these Tnemec coatings this stunning tank will see a 20 - 30 year lifecycle before the next rehab project.
