What is a Food Grade Water Tank?
A food grade water tank is a storage vessel made from materials safe for repeated contact with food and beverages, so it won’t leach chemicals, alter taste, or cause contamination. Belding Tank’s food grade tanks are manufactured from FRP (Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic) with stock resins that comply with FDA regulation 21 CFR 177.2420 for repeated food contact. That corrosion resistance, non-reactive surface, and regulatory compliance make FRP the go-to material for long-term, contamination-free food and beverage storage.

FAQs
What size water tank do you need for a food truck?
Food trucks typically need a 30 to 100 gallon fresh water tank plus a similarly sized greywater tank, depending on usage and service volume. Belding Tank focuses on larger, fixed and field-assembled food-grade storage tanks rather than truck-mounted units — but the same FDA-compliant material standard applies to both.
