Southern Cross® knows the needs of the Australian Mining Industry, and we’ve been providing water tanks for mining projects around Australia for decades. We are able to provide the right storage tank for your needs, with a range that includes Fire Tanks, Wastewater Tanks, Mining Tanks and tanks for Water Treatment and Thermal Energy Storage.
All of our commercial and mining water tanks are constructed from minimum 2mm thick galvanised steel. We have an experienced team of engineers who have worked with a range of clients to meet their specific water storage needs.
Southern Cross Water® understands how important adequate process water storage is for any mine site, and offer a range of base sizes from 12kL to 1900kL available.
Southern Cross® are experts when it comes to providing tanks for fire protection or fire storage systems.
Our steel fire storage tanks are fire resistant, meaning your emergency water will be kept safe.
Our fire tanks are AS2419.1 and AS2304 certified, codes related to Fire Protection and Fire Hydrant systems.
Southern Cross® offers large modular wastewater tanks for mine sites and other commercial applications.
All of our wastewater tanks meet AS3500.1 certification for Plumbing and drainage Water services.
All Southern Cross® tanks have a 30+ year design life, to ensure that you have a long term solution.
At Southern Cross® we understand the importance of having reliable and efficient access to water storage on a mine site.
Our Truck Fill Tanks are designed by our team of expert engineers, and are built with minimum 2mm thick Galvanised steel to ensure reliability.
Our mining water tanks come in two variants for water storage, our round YT Series or square ST Series.
Our YT series tanks are pre-fabricated and flat packed on manufacture, in order to ensure easy transportation. Thanks to our specialised hydraulic erection equipment, there is no need or scaffolding or working at heights, and the bolt together design requires no welding, cutting or coating. This greatly reduces installation time and minimises exposure to occupational health and safety issues.
Southern Cross® Square Tanks are constructed from chemically inert materials, and are fully prefabricated for ease of transport. Their bolt together design requires no on-site welding. GRP square tanks are equipped with concave drainage panels in order to ensure complete and fast drainage.

Regular inspections are crucial for maintaining tank integrity. Southern Cross® provides professional inspection services to identify and address potential issues, ensuring your tank performs at its best.
Using an unmanned remotely operated vehicle (ROV), Southern Cross Water can conduct detailed internal inspections of all types of water tanks. This method negates the risks associated with using commercial divers or lowering people into emptied tanks. This allows inspections to be conducted safely, quickly and with minimal impact on water services.
Our maintenance and site check inspections of existing tanks offer reports that provide comprehensive recommendations for any rectification or upgrade works that may be required to maintain structural integrity. Our experienced maintenance personnel can conduct inspections and basic maintenance with little or no disruption to water services.
Proper maintenance extends the life of your tank and ensures water quality. Southern Cross® offers comprehensive cleaning and servicing to keep your potable water tank in optimal condition.
With a legacy of excellence, Southern Cross® continues to lead the way in potable water storage, offering tailored solutions backed by industry expertise.

Southern Cross® Water has a proven record of providing Water Storage Solutions that you can rely on in a pinch.
In 2015 there was a catastrophic structural failure of a storage tank that had been built by one of our competitors at the Sunshine Coast University Hospital. This caused that tank to burst, flooding approximately 2.5 million litres of water over the nearby Kawana Way, and even washing away a nearby family car.
In the aftermath of this the sites developer turned to Southern Cross® to build two replacement 2.7 million litre storage tanks, and ensured they were held to rigorous standards. Those standards are now used as a benchmark in a range of commercial projects to this day, and is just further proof of the quality of service Southern Cross provides.
