Arpico Water Tanks yesterday debuted its premium water tank, Hybrid, to the local market. Adding a fourth tank to its portfolio, the Richard Pieris and Company PLC subsidiary continues to lead the market through innovation. Arpico Hybrid’s function-oriented features include a state of the art monocoque diagonal design for maximum strength. A screw lid seals the tank, preventing insects and dirt from contaminating the water. The Hybrid’s wide opening and strong base ease the cleaning process whilst its strengthened shoulder lugs enable easy lifting and anchoring of the tank. Aerodynamically designed, the tank can withstand strong winds and maintains a moderate water temperature through fluctuating weather patterns. Incorporating the premium, multi-layer technology used in Arpico’s Triple Layer Tank, the Hybrid offers a threefold commitment to quality water storage. Each layer serves a function beginning with the innermost white layer which determines the freshness and purity of the water, providing a clear visual backdrop. The insulating properties of the middle layer keep the water cool by minimizing the absorption of heat, and plays the key role of preventing algae formation. The outer later protects the water from harmful ultraviolet rays of the sun. With over 20 years of experience in the field, Arpico Water Tanks is the pioneer of water tanks in Sri Lanka and the first to introduce a three layer water tank ten years ago. Arpico provides total water solutions from the pipe, to pump and tank including delivery and storage of water. Hygiene and health are core values upheld by the company. Arpico Water Tanks are ISO 9001:2008 certified for their unique manufacturing process and use only FDA certified materials on state-of-the-art technology. An extensive distribution chain, encompassing all Arpico Supercentres and showrooms, 10,000 dealers island wide and 34 distributors, brings the tanks closer to customers across the country. They are made affordable to the average household, and also cater to industries with capacities ranging from 250 to 10,500 litres. RPC Polymers is recognised for the introduction of several novel products such as triple layer water tanks, Arpico sump tanks, aqua tough water tanks, Arpico septic tanks, Arpico garbage bins, green gas unit and Arpico compost bins. Doorstep Service is another innovation by Arpico to service the customer within the shortest period of time to ensure uninterrupted water supply.
