Tanks and pump stations for councils and utilities

Councils and water authorities specify our fibreglass tanks and pump stations for potable water storage, wastewater transfer and stormwater management. Mullaly Tank Solutions has more than 30 years of experience supplying this sector, and every tank is built at an ISO 9001 site.

FRP construction resists corrosion in wastewater and effluent duty where steel would need frequent maintenance, and our packaged pump stations are appraised through the Water Services Association of Australia (WSAA) national product appraisal scheme to WSA 04. After more than 30 years and hundreds of installations, there are no known structural failures of a Mullaly FRP pump station.

  • Sewage pump stations
  • Potable water storage
  • Wastewater and effluent tanks
  • Stormwater detention and harvesting

Councils that use Mullaly pump stations

Mullaly FRP packaged pump stations are specified and used by Townsville City Council, Cairns Regional Council, Tablelands Regional Council, Torres Strait Island Regional Council, Cassowary Coast Regional Council, Whitsunday Regional Council and Mackay Regional Council.

City West Water in Victoria has approved Mullaly Engineering FRP packaged pump stations for alternative water supply (stormwater) and pressure sewer networks.

“We have been installing these for over 15 years and have found the ease of installation, combined with the reduced safety risks and excavation works required, make these units an overall cost-effective solution and great value for our clients. We have had no known structural failures to date.”

Common questions

Can’t see yours? Call NSW +61 2 4964 8270 or WA +61 8 9434 1707.

Yes. They are appraised through the Water Services Association of Australia’s national product appraisal scheme to WSA 04, the Sewage Pumping Station Code of Australia.
One-piece FRP pump stations run from 1.5 to 3.75 m in diameter and 2 to 14 m deep, each built to the project specification, with a 30-year warranty. See FRP pump stations.
Pump stations arrive in one piece, so installs are quick. At Sydney Airport a station was craned in and backfilling within an hour, and the Sino Iron Red River village stations went in in under a week.
No. FRP resists corrosion from the effluent and the surrounding soil, where steel would need frequent maintenance.
Yes. Mullaly wet wells are engineered for flooded or dry holes, and one went into sandy, creek-side ground at Innes Estate.
Townsville, Cairns, Tablelands, Torres Strait Island, Cassowary Coast, Whitsunday and Mackay councils all specify Mullaly pump stations, and City West Water in Victoria has approved them.
