Deicing Truck Tanks for Airport & Runway Operations
Winter airfield operations require dependable equipment and efficient liquid capacity. Custom Plastic Fabrications (CPF) specializes exclusively in the design and manufacture of deicing truck tanks built from high-performance polypropylene for airport environments.
CPF does not manufacture complete trucks or spray systems. Our focus is precision-engineered deicing truck tanks that integrate seamlessly with your existing equipment — whether mounted on a runway deicer truck, airport deicer truck, or aircraft support vehicle.
CPF Deicer Truck Tank Benefits
Increase Capacity. Reduce Downtime.
Many airports operate deicing trucks with limited tank capacity, resulting in frequent refills and unnecessary operational delays during critical winter events. Upgrading to custom CPF deicing truck tanks increases liquid capacity per load, reduces refill frequency, improves runway treatment efficiency, enhances winter storm response, and extends overall equipment service life. Whether your equipment functions as a runway deicer, airport deicer truck, or aircraft deicer truck, CPF designs tanks that support safe, reliable, and efficient airfield operations.
Controlled Wall Thickness & Structural Design
While rotationally molded tanks are common in many industries, custom-fabricated CPF polypropylene deicer tanks offer important structural and performance advantages — especially in demanding airport runway applications.

WHY polypropylene deicing truck tanks?
Corrosion-Free Construction
Polypropylene will not rust or corrode when exposed to deicing liquid, making it ideal for harsh, salt-heavy environments.
Lightweight Strength
Compared to steel alternatives, poly tanks reduce overall vehicle weight while maintaining durability and performance.
Sustainable & Long-Lasting
Polypropylene has a very low carbon footprint, is 100% recyclable, and provides long-term durability with minimal maintenance.
Precision Fabrication
CNC-cut components and skilled hand fabrication ensure leak-resistant construction and consistent quality.
Cold-Weather Reliability
Excellent impact resistance in freezing temperatures helps prevent cracking during severe winter events.
Compatible with Existing Liquid Deicer Sprayer Systems
Outlet sizes, sump locations, venting, and return lines are positioned specifically for your runway deicer truck configuration.
