In southwestern Ontario, Canada stands the Chatham-Kent Water Tank. The one-million-gallon tank was built in 1994 and upon an assessment in 2013 was required to undergo both an interior and exterior recoat due to rust bloom. As part of the local area’s Community Brand campaign, which featured the water tank’s design, videos, banners and graphic designs, the tank was redesigned and recoated utilizing Tnemec Company’s fluoropolymer coating system.

Back in 2012, the city of Mt. Vernon in Illinois underwent a rebranding initiative. Showcasing the rebrand is the town’s vivid water tank which highlights the community’s new beginning of reinvention. With the tagline, “Creativity Redefined,” the tank is engulfed in a colorful motif.

Illinois American Water constructed a new composite elevated water tank in 2016. According to Tnemec Company, the tank provides, “…pressure reliability during power fluctuations at three water treatment plants and supplements five other storage tanks and four booster stations on the distribution system. It was also built to provide potable water to customers in the Champaign service area.”

Winner of the 2010 Water Tank of the Year by Tnemec Company, the Newton water tower features the artwork of a prominent local artist. Depicting one of the “8 Wonders of Kansas Art,” Newton’s Blue Sky Sculpture, both the sculpture and water tank art were designed by Phil Epp. The artist is renowned for his skyscape and landscape artworks.
