AVMENGINEERING & MATERIALS

Engineered in layers. Bolted in days.

Every AVM tank combines coated steel panels, a liner chosen for the stored water and a walkable steel roof — made in our factory and bolted together on your site.

Our engineering approach

Prefabricated. Modular. Planned around your site.

Instead of casting a tank in place, AVM produces finished steel panels in a factory and assembles them on a prepared foundation. The result is a tank that is quicker to build, easier to plan and can be configured for each project.

Prefabricated panels

Coated wall panels made off site to a planned layout.

Bolted assembly

Panels bolted ring by ring on site — no casting or curing.

10 KL to 1,000+ KL

From 10,000 litres to over 1 million litres of storage.

Permanent or temporary

Install for the long term, or temporarily with the option to relocate.

Technologies & materials

The tank wall, layer by layer.

L1 · Pre-painted outer finish

Pre-painted steel gives the tank its finished exterior and supports aesthetic colour options.

L2 · ASZ anti-corrosive coating

An aluminium-zinc-silicon (ASZ) coating protects the steel against corrosion.

L3 · Steel wall panel

The structural steel panel, bolted to its neighbours to form each ring of the tank.

L4 · Heavy-duty liner

A heavy-duty internal liner, with potable / food-grade options for drinking water applications.

Engineering & manufacturing capabilities

Everything a working tank needs.

Tanks are supplied as complete systems — not just a shell.

Walkable steel roofs

Steel roofs with walkways and railings, so the top of the tank is safely accessible.

Ladders & manholes

Caged ladders, manholes and inspection openings for access, cleaning and checks.

Inlets, outlets and fire pump suction planned with your piping and pump room.

Process & workflow

How a tank goes from drawing to water.

STEP 01

Consult & size

We study the application, demand and site to fix capacity and material.

STEP 02

Foundation drawings

You receive foundation drawings and layout options for your civil team.

STEP 03

Factory production

Coated panels, liner and fittings are produced at our Bhor, Pune unit.

STEP 04

Delivery to site

Panels travel in compact sets instead of as a finished structure.

STEP 05

Bolt-up & commission

The tank is erected, leak-tested and handed over ready to fill.

Technical advantages

Prefabricated steel vs conventional RCC.

Why a factory-made, bolted tank is quicker and more flexible to deliver.

Innovation, quality & efficiency

Quality built in at the factory.

Making panels in a controlled factory setting, rather than on an open site, keeps the coating, finish and fit consistent from tank to tank.

Because the tank is modular, its capacity, height and footprint can be configured to the project — and the same system serves fire water, raw water, DM water, potable, process and agricultural storage.

  • 100% product quality focus
  • Customised to each project
  • Less civil work
