The Rosemont, IL water tower was completed in late 2006 and was the first winner of Tnemec Company’s coveted Tank of the Year Competition. The intricately-rose-painted tank has been a village landmark since its construction in 1982. Since then, the water tower has undergone two significant repaints utilizing an oil-based enamel paint in 1990 and 1998. When recoating was necessary again in 2006, Christopher Burke Engineering and the Village of Rosemont, Illinois, chose a long-lasting, durable Tnemec coating.
