Our collection of Galvanised Steel Water Tanks provides a robust and cost-effective method for storing massive quantities of water. Often referred to as corrugated steel tanks, these structures are a staple in the UK's agricultural and industrial landscapes. Engineered for longevity and extreme volume, they are the preferred choice for projects ranging from large-scale irrigation and commercial rainwater harvesting to specialized aquaculture and industrial process water.
Galvanised steel is renowned for its strength and resistance to the elements. Our tanks are designed to withstand the rigours of outdoor environments, offering a service life of over 30 years. The galvanisation process involves coating the steel in a protective layer of zinc, which prevents rust and corrosion. This durability ensures that your investment remains secure, providing a reliable water source for decades.
The secret to the versatility of a steel tank lies in its liner. We provide high-performance EPDM and Butyl rubber liners that act as the primary containment layer. These liners are:
Potable Water Ready: Can be specified with WRAS-approved materials for drinking water.
Chemical Resistant: Suitable for certain agricultural slurries or industrial chemicals.
Extreme Longevity: Designed to flex and move with the tank while remaining 100% watertight.
When your storage requirements exceed 50,000 litres, galvanised steel often becomes the most economical choice per litre. With capacities reaching up to 1.2 million litres, these tanks offer a scale that is difficult to achieve with standard plastic moulding. Whether you are managing a hydroponics facility, a large dairy farm, or an industrial site requiring significant dust suppression, our steel tanks provide the capacity you need without the premium price tag of other large-scale alternatives.
Because these tanks are sectional and require onsite assembly, proper planning is essential. At The Tank Shop, we leverage over 20 years of experience to help you choose the right dimensions, liners, and covers for your specific application. We provide technical support regarding base requirements and fittings, ensuring your high-capacity water system is installed safely and performs at its peak from day one.
