Engineered Strength, Long-Lasting Performance & Trusted Storage Solutions

Steel tanks are among the most dependable storage solutions in the world, widely used across residential, commercial, industrial, and agricultural applications. At ProMax Engineering, we have redefined the standards of tank fabrication through precision engineering, superior material selection, advanced corrosion treatments, and high-quality workmanship. Over the years, ProMax has become a trusted brand in East Africa for delivering durable, safe, and custom-fabricated steel tanks that meet diverse client needs.

This article explores the types of steel tanks ProMax manufactures, their key features, and why they stand out as the best choice for water, chemical, and bulk-liquid storage.

1. Comprehensive Range of Steel Tanks

ProMax Engineering offers one of the most diverse portfolios of steel tank solutions. Each tank type is designed according to specific storage requirements, environmental conditions, and structural demands.

a) Corrugated Steel Water Tanks

These tanks are built using high-tensile corrugated steel sheets for enhanced structural stability. Their ribbed design provides exceptional strength, allowing them to withstand high water pressure and harsh external environments. They are ideal for large-volume water storage, rainwater harvesting, and industrial use.

b) Round Corrugated Steel Tanks

Our round corrugated tanks combine a circular design with corrugated strength, making them perfect for maximizing capacity and stability. They come with galvanized protective coatings to prevent rusting and guarantee long service life.

c) Underground Galvanized Steel Tanks

These tanks are engineered for clients who require secure, space-saving underground water storage. ProMax underground tanks are reinforced to resist soil pressure, moisture, and corrosion. They are recommended for homes, institutions, borehole systems, firefighting reserves, and fuel storage (built to client specification).

d) Raised Steel Water Tanks

ProMax also fabricates elevated tank systems mounted on steel towers. These tanks provide natural gravity-fed pressure, making them ideal for buildings, farms, factories, and institutions. Towers are constructed using heavy-duty steel and can be fabricated at heights of 6m, 12m, 30m, or according to client specifications.

e) Bolted Steel Tanks

For clients seeking modular installation, ProMax manufactures bolted steel tanks that can be assembled on-site. They are ideal for hard-to-access locations, large-capacity installations, and emergency water deployment projects.

f) Custom Steel Storage Tanks

ProMax also builds fabricated tanks for special purposes including:

• Fuel tanks (above-ground & underground)

• Process water tanks

• Chemical storage tanks

• Industrial mixing tanks

• Jacketed tanks for temperature-controlled applications

2. Superior Materials and Anti-Corrosion Protection

One of the main strengths of ProMax steel tanks is the exceptional material quality. We use:

• High-grade mild steel

• Galvanized steel

• Stainless steel (for specialized applications)

Each tank undergoes surface treatments such as:

• Hot-dip galvanization

• Zinc coating

• Epoxy painting

• Bituminous undercoating for underground tanks

This protects against corrosion, rust, weather exposure, and chemical reactions, ensuring long service life even in harsh African climates.

3. Designed for Durability and Structural Integrity

ProMax tanks are engineered to meet local and international standards. Key durability features include:

• Thick, high-tensile steel sheets

• Strong welded seams or bolted joints

• Anti-leak sealing technology

• Reinforced bases and support structures

• UV-resistant external coatings

• Earthquake-resistant structural options for elevated tanks

From design to installation, every tank is built to last.

4. Customizable Sizes and Capacities

Whether you need a 1,000-litre domestic tank or a 2-million-litre commercial storage unit, ProMax offers total flexibility in tank dimensions, thickness, and layout. Clients can choose:

• Diameter and height

• Wall thickness

• Roof options (flat, conical, dome-shaped)

• Access manholes and inspection ports

• Ladder and guard-rail options

• Fittings, valves, and plumbing connections

This custom-engineering approach ensures the tank exactly matches your operational needs.

5. Safe, Reliable, and Environment-Friendly

ProMax steel tanks are built with safety as a priority. They are leak-proof, pressure-tested, and structurally stable, reducing risks of contamination, water wastage, or collapse. Steel is also an environmentally friendly material that can be recycled, making ProMax tanks a sustainable long-term investment.

6. Installation, Delivery & After-Sales Support

Beyond fabrication, ProMax provides:

• On-site assembly

• Tank erection and installation

• Tower construction

• Painting and finishing

• Maintenance and inspection services

Our technicians ensure your tank is properly installed, safely anchored, and fully commissioned for use.
