Reliable and Low-Maintenance Tanks That Last
CST® has a robust, industry-leading line of potable water storage solutions engineered for superior performance and low cost of ownership over the lifetime of the system.
Aquastore® Vitrium® glass-fused-to-steel enamel tanks have become the preferred choice in municipal water storage. Aquastore offers low life-cycle cost, and the glass coating on the tank panels never needs recoating, saving you money.
In addition, CST offers TecTank®, which delivers the durability of factory-coated and cured epoxy coatings, using our proprietary OptiBond® process. Both glass and epoxy coating options are NSF approved.
CST also offers galvanized tanks that are NSF approved. CST’s galvanized tanks are a cost-effective way of storing water when other types of tanks are not practical.

CST’s Elevated Water Tanks
For decades, we’ve designed and manufactured composite elevated tanks (CET) using Aquastore glass-fused-to-steel (GFS) tanks and concrete pedestals. Aquastore tanks have also been mounted on new and existing legged structures. GFS eliminates the biggest issue with elevated tanks: maintenance (painting). Aquastore tanks are
Fast Construction
Since all our CETs are manufactured using factory-coated tanks, construction is faster, so you’ll experience fewer weather delays than with a field-welded tank.
Low Maintenance
Our Aquastore and concrete pedestal CETs are constructed from some of the most durable tank and structural products in the market. Maintenance periods are typically 15 to 20 years, and minimal work is required.The Ability to Expand
Why pay to build a new tank as your water needs expand? Aquastore’s jack-built, top-down construction method makes it easy to expand when the foundation and pedestal are designed to accommodate expansion.
Logos and Decorations
Simple and intricate logos can be included with your tank order. For long-term durability, many logos can be glassed into the tank so they can be proudly displayed for the entire life of the tank.
