Fire sprinkler systems are essential for workplace safety, as there are hundreds of fire-related incidents in Australia every year. Fire tank liners must be able to store water for long periods of time without being used, so that they are ready when a fire does occur.
Industrial fire tanks need very reliable and durable lining products to complete fire suppression systems.
Commercial fire tanks are usually on the roof of a building, which lets gravity help create a higher pressure flow when they are used. These tanks need better lining solutions to keep them in good condition between uses.
Putting a high-quality, Australian-made fire tank liner on your new or existing fire tank or void space will make sure that your assets stay resistant to corrosion for as long as possible.
Australian Fire Tanks by Raven Tanks Australia tank liners are designed to withstand both regular weather conditions and extreme climates. But how do they fare during a fire?
The part of the tank liner that is not submerged in water will eventually melt in a fire. However, the melted material will float on top of the water, so the tank will still be able to hold most of its water until it is empty.
Unlike plastic tanks, fire tank liners are better protected from radiant heat by the galvanized steel structure of the tank. The tank acts as a heated “basin” that minimizes excessive damage to the liner.

Australian Fire Tanks by Raven Tanks Australia repairs and installs damaged, old, and new liners for commercial and industrial fire tank systems across Australia. Depending on the extent of the deterioration, we can repair or replace:
Many commercial buildings have unused space in their basements and other voids that can be converted into fire water storage.
Australian Fire Tanks by Raven Tanks Australia can supply and install custom-made void liners to turn these large wasted spaces into fire water tanks. Our heavy-duty lining materials can fill both obstructed and unobstructed spaces to create a new, discreet water tank, regardless of the beams, pylons, or pipes that may be present.
In addition to being a cost-effective way to store larger volumes of fire water, void spaces are usually hidden, making the tanks aesthetically pleasing and suitable for all types of properties.

Fire tank lining prevents corrosion, leakage, and bacterial growth in steel or concrete fire water tanks. It creates a watertight barrier, ensuring the tank remains ready to supply water in emergencies.
The most reliable materials for fire tank lining are reinforced PVC, HDPE, and EPDM. These materials are flexible, durable, UV-resistant, and safe for long-term water storage under high-stress conditions.
Fire tank linings should be inspected every 12 months, or more frequently in high-use or outdoor environments. Regular inspections help detect wear, leaks, or damage early and ensure compliance with fire safety standards.
Minor damage like punctures or seam failure can usually be repaired on-site with patching techniques. However, if the liner is extensively worn or degraded, full replacement is recommended for long-term reliability.
