Water is one of Namibia’s most valuable resources. With its arid climate and irregular rainfall, having a reliable water storage solution is essential for households, farms, businesses, and entire communities.
Steel water storage tanks provide a long-lasting, safe, and budget-friendly way to store water where and when it’s needed most.
At Abeco Tanks, we supply high-quality modular steel tanks across Namibia, designed to handle the tough climate while keeping water secure and hygienic.
What Are Steel Water Storage Tanks and Why Choose Them in Namibia?
Steel water tanks are modular, sectional tanks built from pressed steel panels. When lined with a food-grade liner, they provide safe and hygienic storage for drinking water, irrigation, fire protection, and industrial use.
Why steel in Namibia?
- Extreme durability in hot, dry, and windy conditions.
- Fire-resistant compared to plastic alternatives.
- UV stable and corrosion protected with specialised coatings.
- Adaptable — modular tanks can be erected almost anywhere, even remote locations.
Steel vs Plastic vs Concrete: Which Tank Is Best?
- Steel tanks: Long lifespan (20+ years), high capacity, modular design, hygienic with liners, resistant to UV damage.
- Plastic tanks: Cheaper upfront, easy to install, but limited capacity (usually up to ~20,000 litres) and shorter lifespan in Namibia’s intense sun.
- Concrete tanks: Very durable, but expensive, heavy, and time-consuming to install.
For medium to large-scale projects in Namibia, steel offers the best balance of cost, size, and durability.
Materials, Coatings and Liner Specifications
Abeco steel tanks are built using:
- Pressed steel panels (galvanised or epoxy-coated) for strength.
- Food-grade liners (flexible PVC or LLDPE) to ensure drinking water remains clean and uncontaminated.
- Corrosion protection: internal and external coatings resist rust, even in Namibia’s semi-desert conditions.
- Compliance: Manufactured to SANS and ISO standards for structural and water safety assurance.
Structural Design and Strength
- Round tanks: Best for large capacities, stronger under pressure, more cost-effective for bulk storage.
- Rectangular tanks: Ideal for limited spaces or specific site layouts.
- Elevated tanks: Provide gravity-fed pressure, often used in towns, hospitals, and industries where continuous water pressure is essential.
Every design is modular, meaning tanks can be expanded or relocated if water needs change.
