Chicago, IL, Floating Roofs
Every gallon lost to evaporation is money off your balance sheet. Our floating roofs in Chicago, IL, cut those losses by sealing vapor at the surface and holding the product where it belongs. At Gilbert Industries, we engineer roof solutions that recover more product and keep emissions within regulatory limits. You get storage that performs reliably, year after year.

Storage Tank Roofs That Protect Your Product
Product loss and emissions control are constant pressures for storage operations. Our floating roof services address both by creating a secure barrier that limits vapor release and shields contents from outside contaminants.
We build each roof to fit your tank design, using high-strength materials that hold up in harsh conditions. The result is better recovery, cleaner compliance, and consistent product quality across every cycle.
Engineered to Reduce Evaporation Loss
Evaporation quietly drains value from large-scale storage. Our floating roofs are designed to minimize product loss by creating a secure barrier that significantly limits vapor emissions. This tight seal supports both cost recovery and regulatory compliance, helping your facility recover more of what it stores across every operational cycle.
Adaptable to New and Existing Tank Designs
Every storage operation is unique. Our floating roofs are customizable to meet the specific demands of various tank configurations, adapting seamlessly to new or existing storage systems. Our on-site fabrication in Chicago, IL, brings this adaptability directly to your facility, so each roof fits your setup without costly modifications.
