Home » The SteelCore Tank Story
The SteelCore Tank story is one that reflects the ultimate entrepreneurial spirit in the creation of a brand that has and will continue to change the way water is stored for everything from drinking water to irrigation to fire protection. SteelCore Tank is now considered to be one of the top corrugated bolted steel tank manufacturers in the world, which is quite an amazing accomplishment considering they began operations in the early part of 2016.
SteelCore was built from the ground up by a handful of professionals that collectively had over 50 years of collective experience in the steel bolted water storage tank industry; their experience with storage tanks both good and bad became the blueprint for the finest bolted steel tanks in the world. A corrugated bolted steel tank from SteelCore has become the standard that other tank manufacturers compare themselves to with improvements made in the quality of raw materials, appurtenances, liners, and ease of tank assembly.
SteelCore recently announced the expansion of its production capacity due to an unprecedented demand worldwide for the SteelCore brand which has become synonymous with quality workmanship and attention to every detail. As one of the premier providers of fire protection tanks in the United States, we have been working day and night to provide our neighbors and friends many of which are in Northern California with the water storage tanks they need to protect life and property in the middle of wildfire season that seems to be getting worse and longer each year.
