Hot-Press Sectional Water Tanks

Our hot-press moulded sectional tanks are designed in a modular format and are made up of 1m GRP panels. Strict quality control measures are in place when panels are being moulded. Tricel manufactures WRAS (Regulation 4) Approved sectional cold water storage tanks that are compliant with British Standards. This makes our GRP sectional tanks suitable for potable water storage as they are designed to prevent legionella from breeding in the water supply.

Whether it’s a water tank replacement or a new build, we have the experience, flexibility, and expertise to meet your project demands, offering competitive GRP sectional water tank prices.

We manufacture four types of sectional water tanks using hot press and hand-laid production methods. Customers can get free site surveys subject to location.
