We provide durable, long-lasting storage solutions for municipal water storage, industrial water & wastewater, commercial, agricultural, and fire protection applications, delivering dependable performance in even the most demanding environments.
Our bolted storage tank systems are engineered to meet the applicable industry standards for each application, including AWWA, NFPA, API, NSF/ANSI, and project-specific engineering requirements. Whether your project involves potable water, fire protection, industrial process water, wastewater, or dry bulk material storage, our experienced team will help you select the right storage solution for your operational needs.
How Bolted Steel Tank Systems Deliver Long-Term Performance
Bolted steel tanks provide a durable and cost-effective storage solution for applications where reliability, rapid installation, and long service life are critical. Manufactured off-site and assembled in the field, bolted tank systems allow precise quality control while minimizing site disruption and construction timelines. Bolted steel tank systems are also widely used in dry bulk storage applications where consistent material flow and durability are critical.
Thompson Tank designs bolted steel storage tanks to meet site-specific capacity, environmental, and regulatory requirements, delivering scalable storage systems engineered for decades of service life.
- Modular Design & Scalable Capacity
- Factory-Coated Panels for Corrosion Resistance
- Fast Field Installation with Minimal Site Disruption
