Tanks and Towers in Nairobi
Avonstructures designs and builds elevated steel water tanks and structural steel towers in varied styles and heights for residential, agricultural, commercial and institutional clients across Kenya.
What is Tanks and Towers?
Tanks and towers provide gravity-feed pressurised water supply without the running cost of pumps. Tower height and tank volume are sized to the building's flow and pressure needs.
Towers can also carry equipment — antennas, lighting and process platforms — and are designed for wind loads to Kenyan code.
