Mission Statement
The mission of GTM is to provide customers with innovative solutions for gas transportation applications that are safe, efficient, comprehensive, dependable and profitable.
What makes our product advantageous?
We are utilizing welded pipe and heads with the addition of fiberglass reinforcement which results in a higher strength lower cost cylinder. Our tubes are then mounted in a frame and inserted into an inter-modal shipping container which can be transported by way of rail, truck chassis, or sea going vessel. In short GTM’s are lighter weight, lower cost, and more versatile than their seamless steel counterparts.
