Water management on a mine site is more than a routine process…
It’s a critical component, as the mining industry strives for enhanced productivity and reduced operating costs.
Enter our valued client, who was breaking ground on a new mining site in northern WA. No small feat.
Tasked with organising, sourcing, and building critical infrastructure for an operational site, our client understood that water management could not be an afterthought. To address this crucial aspect, they asked us to design, build, and deliver the essential water storage infrastructure during this foundational stage of site setup.
To meet the diverse needs of a new site, we designed and delivered 10 tanks, ranging from 1,200L to 50,000L, each designed to hold a specific water type. From processed and treated water to raw, potable, grey, and brine water, our diverse range ensured a tank for every water requirement, setting the foundation for efficient water management on the site.
Understanding the harsh environment and the operational cycles on a mine site, our tanks were equipped with flexible feet lugs. These lugs, comprising a 10mm thick plate poly welded to the tank’s wall with an elongated anchor point, served a dual purpose. They securely pinned the feet down, reducing pressure on the tank during operational cycles. Importantly, this innovative design eliminated the need for cables or tie-down points, mitigating potential trip hazards and enhancing overall safety on the site.
Because of our expansive product range at West Coast Poly it meant our client could obtain all their water storage solutions from a single, reliable source. From the initial design phase to the delivery of tanks with varying capacities and functionalities, our commitment to excellence ensured a seamless and comprehensive solution for our client’s water storage needs.
