Company Profile

The Tasman Tank Co was established in 1996 by the current Managing Director Bryan Aldridge. The company brings together years of experience in the water industry. We specialise in the design, manufacture and installation of water storage systems throughout Australasia.

Over the years our market share and reputation has steadily grown, cementing our place as a leader in the water storage industry. Whilst still servicing our traditional fire and building services clientele, the majority of our market is from government infrastructure, industrial mining, rainwater harvesting and waste water. This progression has been achieved by focusing on quality in design, documentation, manufacturing and onsite installation. The two keys areas that are paramount in our design process are quality and cost. This focus has allowed Tasman Tanks to expand its product range and customer base to an international level. In addition to our core range of galvanised steel and stainless steel tanks we are proud to introduce our new fusion bonded range of larger capacity storage tanks for more technically demanding industrial, potable & process water, wastewater applications.

Feedback received from clients over the years indicates that Tasman Tank’s overall success is largely attributed to its innovative approach, reliability and highest quality products and service during design, manufacture and installation.
