What Did the Client Need?

The client faced a longstanding challenge: nearly a decade of dealing with PFAS contamination and toxic drinking water at their site. They needed a potable water storage solution that provided durability and safety and addressed these serious water quality concerns. Specifically, the client required a custom-fabricated tank made from 316L stainless steel—a material known for its corrosion resistance and suitability for potable water applications. Uniquely, they requested an epoxy liner to be applied to the stainless steel tank, even though this is not a typical practice, to add an extra barrier against contamination and ensure the water remained clean and safe.
