Farms depend heavily on irrigation systems, where large quantities of water are needed at different times depending on livestock management practices such as drinking water bins, etc. these tanks have high volume capacities combined with durability, making them suitable for even disconnected locations.
Many manufacturing companies require cooling towers that use major amounts of water. Cleaning processes also consume huge volumes because equipment has to be cleaned regularly.
Zincalume tanks are also used in fire control systems for both residential and commercial properties, due to their large-scale storage capacity of water, which will be important during wildfires or other emergencies.
