How do you calculate water tank capacity for an industrial site? Application type, peak demand, regulatory minimums, footprint constraints, and more all feed into the figure.

We've broken it all down in our new blog, and launched the UK's first online industrial water tank capacity calculator, now live on our website!

We use industrial-grade ROV technology to carry out a full internal inspection while the tank remains at capacity. There is no draining, no refilling, and no need to take the tank out of service.

The ROV captures high-definition footage of the interior, including submerged accessories and internal pipework that are difficult to reach by any other means. You receive a formal inspection report with full documentation suitable for compliance and insurance review.

We've added a tank capacity calculator to the Franklin Hodge website!

Select your tank type, enter your dimensions, and get an effective capacity figure based on our engineering principles and design parameters. It covers both cylindrical and rectangular tanks, with options for LPCB and FM approval, infill, and suction configuration.

It's a useful starting point if you're scoping a new installation or reviewing an existing setup - and you can save your calculation and submit an enquiry directly from the tool.

At Franklin Hodge, we're always looking for ways to raise the standard for tank access solutions.

This helical staircase has been installed at our Hereford facility, and it's something new for us.

Wrapping cleanly around the tank structure, it offers a safer, more comfortable alternative to traditional vertical ladders, purpose-engineered for sites where access matters as much as the asset itself.

Already proving popular, contact us if you'd like to learn more: https://f.mtr.cool/ceinmvfqrl

This World Environment Day, we're celebrating solutions that are built to last.

At Franklin Hodge, durability and sustainability go hand in hand. By designing, maintaining, and refurbishing high-quality storage tanks, we help reduce waste, conserve resources, and support more sustainable infrastructure across the UK.

From extending asset life through refurbishment to using innovative inspection technologies that minimise environmental impact, we're helping customers make smarter, more sustainable choices.

Because when infrastructure lasts longer, it's better for business and better for the planet.

Kew Gardens houses plant species nurtured for over 40 years. When the rainwater tank supplying their Lower Nursery irrigation system began to fail, getting it replaced quickly was not optional.

The brief was straightforward: replace the existing tank, work within a restricted site, and have irrigation back online within three weeks.

Franklin Hodge delivered a site-assembled glass-coated tank, 10.24 metres in diameter, installed on the existing base with pipework cut and re-routed on site. Deliveries were staged from the external car park to manage the limited access, and the team completed the project in five days.

Industrial and commercial sites are under growing pressure to manage water more responsibly - and the infrastructure decisions made at specification stage have a direct impact on how well a site performs against those targets.

Our latest blog looks at how sectional water storage tanks can support sustainable water management, from reducing mains dependency to rainwater harvesting, greywater reuse, and longer asset life through refurbishment rather than replacement.
