Key Benefits of Sectional Steel Tanks
- Long‑lasting hot‑dip galvanised steel construction for excellent corrosion resistance and extended service life in harsh African conditions.
- Modular design that can be customised to almost any capacity and footprint, and can be expanded in future by adding extra panels.
- Fast installation on prepared foundations, with the option of ground‑level tanks or elevated steel towers up to significant heights for gravity pressure.
- Suitable for clean (potable) water, process water, irrigation water and fire water, making them ideal for factories, farms, mines, warehouses and commercial buildings.
- Cost‑effective compared to many concrete alternatives due to efficient transport, on‑site assembly and minimal heavy equipment requirements.
Applications
Typical Applications in South Africa
ARL Solutions supplies sectional steel water tanks for a wide range of local requirements in Gauteng and beyond
Municipal and community water storage
Industrial process and wash water
Fire protection systems and sprinkler backup storage
Agricultural irrigation and livestock water supply
Mining, construction camps and remote sites with limited infrastructure
Backup water storage for office parks, retail centres, hospitals and schools
Ground‑Level and Elevated Sectional Tanks
- Ground‑level tanks: Ideal where there is space on the property and where pumps will be used to create the required pressure, for example in industrial plants and irrigation systems.
- Elevated tanks: Installed on engineered steel towers to provide gravity‑fed water pressure and secure storage above flood level, often used for fire systems, rural schemes and municipal backup.
ARL Solutions can assist with both the tank and the supporting steel structure, from design through fabrication to final installation on site.
Our Process
Design, Manufacture and Installation
Design, Manufacture and Installation
Each sectional steel water tank starts with a detailed assessment of your water storage needs, site conditions and pressure requirements.
Our in‑house design and engineering team sizes the tank, tower (where required) and associated pumps and pipework to meet your specifications and relevant South African standards.
Pressed or panel steel sections are manufactured to precise dimensions for strength and consistent assembly.
All panels are hot‑dip galvanised for corrosion protection and durability.
Tanks are assembled on prepared concrete foundations and internally braced to ensure structural integrity at full capacity.
Where required, installations are signed off by qualified professionals and can be integrated with ASIB‑compliant fire pump sets and control panels.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a sectional steel water tank and how is it built?
- Should I choose a ground‑level or elevated sectional steel tank?
- How long does a sectional steel water tank last and is it suitable for potable water?
- What information does ARL Solutions need to quote on a sectional steel water tank?
A sectional steel water tank is a modular water storage tank constructed from hot‑dip galvanised steel panels that are bolted together on site to form a watertight reservoir.
The panels are internally braced to handle the full water load, and the modular design allows the tank to be configured in different footprints and heights, including rectangular and square layouts, to suit your available space and required capacity.
Elevated sectional steel tanks, mounted on engineered steel towers, are better when you need gravity‑fed pressure or want storage above flood level, for example for fire water systems, municipal schemes, rural communities or sites where constant pumping is not desirable.
When installed with suitable linings, fittings and compliance to relevant standards, these tanks are well suited to potable (drinking) water storage as well as process water, irrigation water and fire water.
With this information, the team can recommend the most suitable tank size, shape and tower height (if needed), and provide a detailed, cost‑effective proposal tailored to your project.
