If you’re looking for a durable, hygienic, and long-lasting plastic sheep dipping tanks, Viking Plastics offers a modern solution designed specifically for the demands of busy farms. By manufacturing custom sheep dipping tanks using Paneltim® plastic construction panels and high-quality polypropylene sheets, Viking Plastics provides farmers with robust, low-maintenance systems tailored to individual yard layouts and flock sizes. Whether you’re replacing an ageing concrete dip or upgrading from a corroded metal tank, a bespoke plastic sheep dipping tank delivers strength, chemical resistance, and easy cleaning – all while being built to suit your exact environment and handling system.
Why Choose Plastic Sheep Dipping Tanks?
Traditional concrete and steel tanks have served farms for decades, but they often crack, leak, or corrode over time. In contrast, a plastic sheep dipping tank offers significant advantages:
- Excellent chemical resistance to sheep dip solutions
- Non-corrosive and rust-proof materials
- Smooth, hygienic surfaces that are easy to wash down
- Long service life with minimal maintenance
- Lightweight yet structurally strong construction
Because plastic doesn’t absorb chemicals or moisture like concrete can, it helps maintain a cleaner and more controlled dipping environment. This is particularly important when working with regulated treatments where accurate solution management matters.
Why Choose Viking Plastics?
As both manufacturer and supplier, Viking Plastics controls the entire production process. That means consistent quality, precise fabrication, and direct communication from design to delivery. Our experience working with agricultural clients ensures practical, farm-ready solutions rather than one-size-fits-all products.
Paneltim Plastic Construction Panel Grid Profile
Built with Paneltim® for Superior Strength
Viking Plastics uses Paneltim® plastic construction panels as the structural core of their tanks. Paneltim® panels are engineered with an internal ribbed structure, giving them exceptional rigidity without excessive weight. This means the tank walls remain strong and stable even under the pressure of large volumes of liquid and livestock movement.
Combined with high-grade polypropylene sheets, the result is a tank that is impact-resistant, watertight, and built to withstand tough agricultural conditions. Polypropylene is well known for its durability and resistance to chemicals, making it ideal for long-term exposure to sheep dip solutions.
Custom-Made to Suit Your Farm
No two farmyards are the same. Viking Plastics manufactures each plastic sheep dipping tank to suit individual site requirements. Whether space is limited, access is tight, or you need specific entry and exit configurations, the tank can be designed around your handling system.
Customisation options can include:
- Tank length, width, and depth
- Integrated splash walls
- Non-slip internal surfaces
- Drainage and emptying points
- Race and pen compatibility
This tailored approach ensures the dipping process is safe, efficient, and practical for both livestock and handlers.
Lining Existing Concrete or Metal Tanks
One of the most cost-effective solutions Viking Plastics offers is the ability to line an old concrete or steel tank with a new plastic sheep dipping tank insert. Instead of demolishing and rebuilding, a custom-fabricated plastic liner is installed directly inside the existing structure.
This approach:
- Eliminates leaks from cracked concrete
- Prevents ongoing corrosion in metal tanks
- Reduces downtime
- Saves on demolition and construction costs
The old tank effectively becomes a structural shell, while the new plastic liner provides a clean, watertight interior.
