Preload is the world’s leader in prestressed concrete tank construction, having completed nearly 3700 tank projects of various types, sizes and designs worldwide. With a tradition dating back to 1930, our resources are devoted to designing and constructing wire-wound prestressed concrete tanks for water, wastewater, thermal energy storage(TES), liquefied natural gas(LNG) and many other uses. Prelo

ad tanks are designed and constructed of the highest quality, durability and value. Public utilities, private industries, and thousands of communities rely on Preload prestressed concrete tanks. Their public officials and industry leaders appreciate that Preload tanks provide a lifetime of performance—and economic benefit. Engineers know that specifying a tank built to ANSI/AWWA D110, Type III standards will result in decades of trouble-free service. Preload's superior design and construction is a discipline we've been perfecting since building the first ever wire-wound, prestressed concrete tank. It’s no surprise then that Preload prestressed concrete tanks are the ideal storage solution for water, storm water, wastewater treatment, thermal, biofuel, and LNG.
