Pressed Steel Tanks
'X-Tank" is our
standard range of pressed steel panel water storage tanks.
They consist of mass-produced pressed steel panels bolted
together in either a square or rectangular profile. STARTANK
panels are available in either 1000mm or 1220mm square modules,
which are hydraulically cold-pressed in one piece and embossed
with a distinctive star pressing at the centre to strengthen
the panels.
This is a simple and transportable solution
to the problem of bulk storage. They can be extended (please
click on 'capacity charts' to see the vast range of sizes
available), reduced in size or can have an internal partition
for periodic cleaning of each compartment, or alternatively,
store the liquid for different applications. They can be also
dismantled, transported and re-erected elsewhere if necessary.
