Makoro 5000L New Slim Vertical Water Tank

The Makoro 5000L Slim Vertical Normal Duty Water Tank is designed for applications where high-capacity water storage is required but installation space is limited. Combining a taller profile with a narrower footprint, this slimline tank provides excellent storage efficiency while remaining easier to position alongside buildings, boundary walls, and in restricted spaces. With a true storage capacity of 5200 litres, it is ideal for residential, agricultural, commercial, and institutional water storage applications.

The tank features an overall height of 2350 mm, an effective fill height of 2050 mm, and a diameter of 1820 mm, allowing it to deliver substantial storage capacity while occupying less ground space than conventional larger-diameter tanks. A 420 mm lid provides secure and convenient access for inspection, cleaning, and maintenance, while 3 × 40 mm black fittings allow straightforward integration into irrigation systems, water reticulation networks, and general distribution applications.

Manufactured from durable polyethylene, the Makoro 5000L Slim Vertical Normal Duty Water Tank features a wall thickness ranging from 4–8 mm, providing reliable strength and long-term durability for standard water storage applications. Its robust construction is engineered to withstand harsh outdoor conditions while maintaining excellent structural integrity and performance.

Ideal for rainwater harvesting, household backup water storage, livestock watering, agricultural operations, commercial facilities, and municipal water storage, this tank offers an excellent balance of capacity, durability, and space efficiency. Available in a variety of custom colours, it can be tailored to suit both operational requirements and site aesthetics.

Every Makoro tank is proudly manufactured in Botswana using innovative technology and sturdy, purpose-driven designs — all backed by a 10-year guarantee.

Our standard tanks are designed to safely store liquids with a specific gravity (SG) of 1 or less — ideal for water and other low-density fluids. For medium- to heavy-duty use involving higher SG liquids such as molasses, brines, or agricultural chemicals, we offer custom-reinforced tank options to suit your needs.
