Water tanks

CGH is a manufacturer of industrial steel tanks that supplies water tanks for waterworks, industry, the power sector and fire protection.

We produce above-ground and underground, vertical and horizontal tanks with capacities from 5 to 300 m³, and in buffer versions of over 200 m³ in a single unit. They are made of S235JR and P355 carbon steel or 304L stainless steel.

We select the construction, material and coatings to suit the type of water, the temperature and the operating pressure of the system.

Applications of CGH water tanks

CGH tanks allow safe storage of the following types of water:

Potable – in water supply systems, hospitals and public buildings.

Fire-fighting – reserve supply for hydrants and sprinkler systems.

Technological and process – in the chemical and metallurgical industries and the power sector.

Chilled – in refrigeration and HVAC systems.

Hot – as heat buffers in district heating and cogeneration.

Rainwater – for retention and reuse.

We adapt our designs to the specific nature of our customers’ production processes.

Purpose

By choosing CGH water tanks, you get:

Construction made on the automated Heinrichglück production line.

Internal and external welds made by submerged arc welding.

Non-destructive testing of welded joints at every stage of production.

Internal coatings with PZH approval for drinking water.

A choice between carbon steel and 304L stainless steel.
