Our Range of Fire Sprinkler Water Storage Tanks
We offer a range of water storage tanks for firefighting on commercial properties. From small to medium capacities, our cost-effective tanks meet a range of storage needs.
Our products:
- Galvanised Steel or Aluminium Alloy Liquistore/Firestore: These tanks consist of overlapped and bolted panels in either galvanised steel or aluminium, together with either a trough deck steel or aluminium cover. The Liquistore/Firestore is a long-life and low-maintenance storage system.
- Galvanised Steel Liquitainer/Firetainer: This tank is assembled from galvanised steel sheet panels, bolted between galvanised steel sections or beams. Internally, the tank is provided with a tailor-made butyl rubber liner. The Liquitainer/Firetainer is flexible in design, having the ability to fit into odd-shaped areas. Firetainer tanks are LPCB approved up to a height of 5.35m. Liquitainer/Firetainer tanks do not need to be supported on a steel framework or support piers, as they can be bolted directly on to a load-bearing concrete foundation.
- Galvanised Tritainer: The Galvanised Tritainer is for small to medium capacities, where space is limited. This tank is made up of triangular-shaped panels, making 1.0m2 modulus which can be configured to cater for any storage volume.

FAQs
Do sprinkler systems need a water tank?
There are two types of sprinkler systems, they are either mains-fed or pump-fed. If the system is pump-fed, it will need a water tank. Whether your building’s system is mains fed or pump fed will depend on the size and style of the building.
Which type of tank is preferred for fire water?
Galvanised steel water tanks are the most preferred style for feeding sprinkler systems. These can withstand the heat and flame contact if there is a fire.
