Galvanised Liquitainer® and Firetainer Tanks®

When space is limited but fire protection is non-negotiable, Franklin Hodge’s galvanised Liquitainer and Firetainer tanks offer a smart and efficient water storage solution. These modular, sectional tanks are designed for flexibility, strength, and long-term reliability in both commercial and residential fire safety applications. 

What Are Galvanised Liquitainer® and Firetainer® Tanks? 

The Liquitainer and Firetainer ranges are site-assembled sectional tanks made from high-grade galvanised steel. They’re ideal for installations where traditional cylindrical tanks aren’t practical due to space constraints or architectural requirements. 

Firetainer® tanks are LPCB-approved, making them fully compliant for fire sprinkler water storage. Both designs can be configured in square, rectangular or tailor-made shapes to match specific installation spaces, such as basements or tight mechanical plant rooms.
