Unlike less durable goods, Xerxes tanks must perform up to standards for decades. Xerxes is headquartered in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and oper- ates more manufacturing facilities in the U.S. than any other single underground storage tank (UST) manufacturer. Our six strategically located plants allow us to provide prompt delivery and quality service, both economically and efficiently, to any location. We believe - literally and figuratively - in going the extra mile for our customers. Indeed, it is our commitment to customer satisfaction and quality products that makes Xerxes the first choice in under- ground fiberglass storage - for today and for tomorrow. 2 Long History of Fiberglass Tanks After years of installing bare steel underground storage tanks for gasoline and diesel fuel, corporations discovered - in the early 1960s - that the leakage from steel tanks - because of rust both inside and outside - caused environmental prob- lems. Since the mid 1960s, rust -proof fiberglass underground storage tanks have provided a reliable option for safe contain- ment of petroleum fuel products. Xerxes Corporation has been a pioneer in developing, manu- facturing and marketing fiberglass tanks for the underground storage of these products, as well as various types of water and approved chemicals, since the early 1970s. Today, a large percentage of UST's sold in the U.S. are made of fiberglass. More than 350,000 tanks have been installed and more than 95% of all tank purchases made by major oil marketers are fiberglass.
