2 <br />A Wise Choice for Environmental Safety <br />Today, more and more regulations are in plate to protea <br />the environment, particularly our groundwater supplies. A <br />Xerxes rm lticompartment tank is a superior underground <br />storage option because it offers protection against both <br />external and internal corrosion. <br />No amount of "protective coating" changes the fact that, <br />unlike fiberglass, steel rusts, and buried steel rusts even <br />faster because the ground is electrically alive. Adding a <br />coating and anodes to steel tanks can sometimes delay the <br />rusting process, but it does not change steeps natural <br />tendency to rust. <br />Xerxes fiberglass tanks have the added benefit of protection <br />against internal corrosion, which has been a factor in the <br />failure of underground storage tanks due to leaks. Even <br />properly working external cathodic protection does not <br />guard against internal corrosion. <br />Since Xerxes fiberglass ranks require no corrosion <br />maintainence or EPA -mandated corrosion monitoring, <br />ongoing maintainence and monitoring expenses are <br />avoided. The dual -corrosion protection of a Xerxes <br />fiberglass tank makes a Xeres tank a safe, cost-effective <br />and longi term option for storing petroleum products. <br />The Benefits of a Tank from an Industry Leader <br />Xerxes was the fust to make fiberglass underground <br />tanks with integrally constructed ribs — dramatically <br />increasing their robustness — and the first to make a <br />UL -listed fiberglass underground double-wall storage <br />tank At Xerxes, excellence in service is highly valued <br />Jong with excellence in product design and manufacturing. <br />This value manifests itself for customers in the ready <br />availability of Xerxes tanks. Xerxes' five manufacturing <br />Facilities, strategically located throughout the United <br />States, provide customers with prompt, economical <br />delivery and quality service. <br />Standard Featuras of a Multicomparfmant Tank <br />* Corrosion -resistant fiberglass <br />Added strength and robustness through the <br />use of integral ribs <br />■ UL -listed <br />■ Customized tank and compartment sizes <br />■ Gauge plates under all service openings <br />■ Lifting lug(s) <br />
