Kingspan Group has announced their acquisition of Tankworks Australia, a manufacturer of steel based rainwater harvesting systems used by Australian building designers since 1934. 

The Tankworks acquisition will strengthen the newly established "eco-arm" of Kingspan, called Kingspan Environmental, which will provide fuel and storage tanks, servicing and monitoring equipment, renewable technologies, and, as of this new acquisition, Tankworks wastewater management systems.

Tankworks products have been used on both commercial and residential builds across Australia since its inception in 1934, including well known projects like former Sustainability Awards finalists AE2 Ermington defence housing by DKO Architecture and Argyle by S2 design.

Kingspan’s portfolio now incorporates a large range of building products in Australia, including:

  • insulated panels and façades
  • insulation
  • access floors
