Silo & Water Tank Waterproofing Services

Silo & Water Tank Waterproofing for Agri Infrastructure

Grain silos and water storage tanks are critical infrastructure components in agricultural operations. Silos store bulk grains, seeds, and feed materials, while water tanks support irrigation, cleaning, dairy processing, and other essential activities.

Any form of leakage, seepage, or structural crack in silos or tanks can cause serious operational problems. In grain silos, moisture infiltration can lead to fungal growth, spoilage, caking, and quality degradation. In water tanks, seepage can weaken structural integrity, cause contamination, and lead to continuous water loss.

Our silo and water tank waterproofing services are engineered to ensure watertight integrity, structural strength, and long-term operational safety.

Common Problems in Agri Silos & Tanks

• Vertical cracks in RCC silos

• Leakage at construction joints

• Corrosion of reinforcement due to water seepage

• Internal surface erosion

• Efflorescence formation

• Water tank base leakage

• Joint failure between wall and slab

These issues can compromise both product quality and structural safety.

Scope of Services

We provide:

• Internal waterproof coating application

• External membrane waterproofing

• Crack injection treatment

• Construction joint sealing

• Cementitious waterproof slurry application

• Food-safe waterproof coating (for grain storage)

• Chemical-resistant tank lining

• Base slab waterproof reinforcement

• Leak detection and pressure testing

• Preventive waterproof maintenance programs

Waterproofing Systems Used

1. Cementitious Waterproof Coatings

• Ideal for RCC silos and tanks

• Strong bonding with concrete surfaces

2. Polyurethane (PU) Waterproof Systems

• Flexible and crack-bridging

• Suitable for external protection

3. Crystalline Waterproofing

• Penetrates concrete pores

• Blocks capillary water movement

4. Epoxy Tank Coatings

• Chemical-resistant

• Suitable for water tanks and processing tanks

System selection depends on structure type and exposure conditions.

Engineering & Technical Considerations

We assess:

• Structural crack width and depth

• Hydrostatic pressure levels

• Internal storage conditions

• Material compatibility

• Surface preparation requirements

• Reinforcement exposure risk

Proper diagnosis ensures permanent leakage control rather than temporary patch repairs.

Service Process

1. Structural inspection and leak mapping

2. Surface cleaning and preparation

3. Crack repair and joint sealing

4. Primer and waterproof coating application

5. Multi-layer membrane installation (if required)

6. Curing and quality inspection

7. Water or moisture testing
