In Australia’s dry climate, securing long-term and safe water storage is essential. Whether for rural farms, domestic use, or industrial operations, tank liners are a cost-effective and practical solution for restoring or upgrading existing water tanks. A high-quality water tank liner can extend the life of your tank, prevent leaks, and ensure water remains clean and safe.
What Are Tank Liners?
Tank liners are flexible, waterproof membranes installed inside a tank to create a barrier between the tank’s internal surface and the stored water. They are commonly used to refurbish old concrete, steel, or poly tanks and are especially valuable when tank walls begin to crack or corrode.
Made from materials like reinforced PVC, EPDM, or polyethylene, modern water tank liners are designed to handle pressure, UV exposure, and a variety of liquids — especially drinking water.
Benefits of Water Tank Lining
Installing a water tank lining offers several key advantages:
- Leak prevention: Protects against structural damage and corrosion.
- Clean water storage: Minimises algae growth and contamination.
- Cost-effective repairs: Avoids the need for complete tank replacement.
- Eco-friendly: Extends tank lifespan and reduces waste.
Tank liners are ideal for a wide range of water storage applications, including rainwater harvesting, firefighting reserves, irrigation tanks, and potable water systems.
Where Are Tank Liners Used?
In Australia, tank liners are widely used in:
-
Rural water tanks (farms, stations)
-
Residential rainwater tanks
-
Commercial and industrial water storage
-
Agricultural irrigation tanks
-
Firefighting water reserve tanks
Whether your tank is above ground or underground, square or round, a custom-fit tank liner ensures reliable performance across all climates.
Choosing the Right Tank Liner
When selecting a liner, consider:
-
The intended use (potable water, greywater, chemicals)

The tank shape and size
-
Regulatory compliance for drinking water (AS/NZS standards)
