Arpico Hybrid's function oriented features include a state of the art monocoque diagonal design for maximum strength.

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.

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.
