Bolted water tanks: supply, erection, inspection and repair

We supply and erect bolted water storage tanks of all three types — glass-fused-to-steel (GLS), epoxy-coated and GRP — from 20 to 25,000 m³, and we inspect and repair any tank, whoever made it.

About the service

The right tank for the water, the site and the budget

Bolted tanks are made as factory-coated panels and assembled on site with bolts and sealant, so they go up faster than concrete or welded tanks and can be extended or relocated later.

Tank types we supply

  • GLS (glass-fused-to-steel): potable water, wastewater, brine and fire water — long service life and high corrosion resistance.
  • Epoxy-coated steel: an economical option for industrial and agricultural use.
  • GRP: lightweight, thermally insulated fibreglass panels, well suited to rooftops, hospitals and hotels.

Agencies

Exclusive agent in Egypt for Santeks (Belarus), agent for YHR/CEC (China) for GLS tanks, and agent for Ekomaxi (Turkey) for GRP tanks, with tank roofs from Vacono (Germany) and JSF (Spain).

Lifting jacks — made in Egypt

We manufacture our own GLS tank lifting jacks. That speeds up erection and lets us run several tanks in parallel.

FAQ

Questions about bolted water tanks

GLS has the longest life and suits potable water, wastewater and brine; epoxy-coated steel costs less and suits industrial and agricultural use; GRP is lighter and insulated, and suits rooftops. We recommend a type once we know the water, capacity and site.

Yes. We erect tanks the client bought from another supplier, working to the manufacturer’s assembly manual.

Yes. We inspect on site, write a condition report, and repair leaks, corrosion, and failed sealant or coating — and we tell you honestly if the tank needs replacing.
