Traditional concrete reservoirs pose several challenges in Kenya: they take months to construct, require intensive on-site material mixing, necessitate heavy site excavation, and are highly prone to cracking or leaking over time due to seismic ground movement or soil shifting. In contrast, SBS modular tanks utilize advanced Zincalume®/Galvalume-coated steel panels combined with flexible internal liners. They offer an engineered life expectancy of over 60 years, will not crack during earth tremors, and require significantly less site preparation—typically requiring only a simple concrete ring beam rather than a massive, fully cast foundation. This alternative allows county governments to maximize their infrastructure budgets while avoiding the long project delays associated with traditional civil works.
