Pressed Panel Steel Tanks
Water storage is no longer a secondary concern — it’s a mission-critical need for institutions, industries, and communities. Whether you’re managing a school, hospital, construction site, or residential development, having a safe and reliable water storage system is essential. That’s where pressed panel tanks come in.
What Are Pressed Panel Tanks?
Pressed panel tanks are modular water storage tanks made from prefabricated steel panels that are bolted together on-site. The panels are typically made from galvanized steel, epoxy-coated steel, or stainless steel, depending on the client’s requirements and the intended water application.
They can store from 10,000 litres to over 1,000,000 litres, making them suitable for both small installations and large-scale water projects.
Because they are modular, pressed panel tanks can be built to almost any shape or size — square, rectangular, or custom — and can be easily disassembled and relocated if needed.
Key Benefits of Pressed Panel Tanks
- Scalable & Flexible
Pressed panel tanks can be customized to match your exact water demand and space availability. As your needs grow, the tank can be expanded without replacing the entire system.
- Durable & Weather-Resistant
Unlike plastic or concrete tanks, steel panel tanks are resistant to UV radiation, corrosion, and environmental wear. When built with galvanized or stainless steel and sealed properly, they can last for decades with minimal maintenance.
- Easy to Transport & Assemble
Because the tanks are fabricated in panels, they are easy to transport even to remote sites. On-site assembly is fast, typically requiring only a prepared base, skilled technicians, and bolting equipment.
- Leak-Proof Sealing
When installed properly using non-toxic rubber seals and joint kits, pressed panel tanks are completely leak-proof and safe for potable water.
- Cost-Effective in the Long Run
Although the upfront cost might be higher than plastic tanks, the low maintenance, durability, and expandability make pressed panel tanks a more economical solution over time.
Applications Across Sectors
Pressed panel tanks are incredibly versatile and widely used in:
- Hospitals and Clinics – where clean water is essential for sanitation and medical use
- Schools and Universities – to support daily consumption, sanitation, and kitchen use
- High-Rise Buildings and Estates – rooftop or basement installations for steady supply
- Industries and Construction Sites – for concrete mixing, equipment washing, and more
- Agricultural Projects – irrigation, livestock, and processing
- NGO and Emergency Relief Projects – due to ease of transportation and quick setup
