At Videx Tanks, our expertise is deeply rooted in the science and application of water
storage solutions. With a proven track record of supporting South African homes and
industries in securing their essential water resources, we possess a comprehensive
understanding of diverse tank technologies, materials, and sizing requirements. Our
commitment is to providing robust and effective solutions for water management.
In the broader context of global water infrastructure, it is pertinent to examine the most
significant achievements in enclosed water storage. This exploration allows for a greater
appreciation of the engineering principles and logistical considerations involved in ensuring
water security on a large scale.
Currently, the world’s largest enclosed water storage tank, as of late 2023, represents a
remarkable feat of engineering. Located in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, this facility is operated by
the Saline Water Conversion Corporation (SWCC).
● This equates to 3 billion liters of water.
● For perspective, this capacity is equivalent to the volume held by 6 thousand of our 500 000 litre Videx Tanks
● The stored water volume has the potential to supply a substantial urban population
for an extended duration.
This record-setting tank underscores the significant engineering and infrastructural
investments required to effectively manage and safeguard water resources in various
regions globally. While Vidextanks’ core focus remains on delivering dependable and durable
water storage solutions tailored to the specific needs of the South African market –
encompassing a range of capacities for residential, agricultural, and commercial applications
– we recognize the value in understanding the advancements at the forefront of water
storage technology.
This global example reinforces the critical role that water tanks, regardless of their scale,
play in ensuring water security. From centralized mega-facilities in arid regions to the reliable
Videx Tank on a South African property providing essential backup during dry periods, these
structures are integral to water resource management.
While our current manufacturing focus at Vidextanks is on providing optimized water storage
solutions for the South African context, we maintain a commitment to quality, reliability, and
fit-for-purpose design across our product range.
