Robust Water Storage for Operations That Think Long-Term and Sustainably

Whether fire water storage, irrigation or process water: Agricultural operations need solutions that work in everyday use – in frost, moisture and under high stress. IBK Fibertec manufactures large-volume GRP tanks from 15,000 to 100,000 litres or more – individually designed and produced in Germany.

Corrosion-free. Low-maintenance. Permanently stable.

Applications

Fire Water Storage

Many new builds and extensions of livestock buildings or machinery halls require adequate fire water storage.
Our tanks can be designed on a project-specific basis – including in compliance with regulatory requirements.

  • Underground or above-ground installation
  • Integration of draw-off points and pump sumps
  • Adaptation to existing farm infrastructure

Rainwater Harvesting and Irrigation

Large roof areas offer potential for water reuse. A GRP tank enables:

  • Independence during dry periods
  • Use for irrigation or cleaning
  • Sustainable operations management

Process and Utility Water

Robust storage is required for cleaning, cooling or technical applications.

GRP is resistant to moisture, temperature fluctuations and agricultural environmental conditions.

Advantages of GRP in Agricultural Environments

Corrosion-Free in Stable Environments

Ammonia-laden air, moisture and temperature fluctuations attack steel.

GRP is permanently corrosion-free – no coating, no rust.

Resistant to Frost and Ground Cover

Our tanks are statically designed for each specific installation situation.

They are suitable for underground installation and can – depending on the project – also be designed for vehicle loading.

Low-Maintenance for Decades

No recoating cycles.

No repainting.

No rust remediation.

Once installed, the tank works reliably in the background.

Fast Installation

Thanks to the comparatively low weight:

  • Lower crane requirements are possible
  • Shorter installation times are achievable
  • Operational disruptions can be minimised

Cost-Effectiveness Over the Entire Service Life

Not only the purchase price is decisive when selecting a water tank – equally important are:

  • Low follow-on costs
  • Long service life
  • High operational reliability
  • Predictable investment

GRP tanks offer clear advantages over coated steel structures or solid concrete solutions.

Technical Specifications

  • Diameter: 2.0 – 4.0 m
  • Length: up to approx. 15 m
  • Volume: 15,000 – 100,000 litres
  • Above-ground or underground installation
  • Inspection opening
  • Connection flanges
  • Measurement nozzles
  • Ring stiffeners
  • Tank saddles

Every tank is designed on a project-specific basis.
