At ALCE CDE, we’re proud to be France’s leading manufacturer of storage tanks, with over 50 years of expertise to our credit. We specialize in designing and creating storage solutions that meet the unique needs of our diverse customer base. One of our key areas is the manufacture of food tanks for water storage.
Agricultural water storage tanks
Our food tanks, or “agricultural water storage tanks”, are acclaimed for their superior quality and reliability. These tanks are specifically designed to store water safely and efficiently, ensuring that the water remains clean and uncontaminated.
Water tanks
In today’s world, where water scarcity is a pressing issue, having an efficient and reliable water storage tank is essential. We understand this need and are dedicated to providing the best possible solution. Our water storage tanks, or “water cisterns”, are built to withstand a variety of conditions, ensuring that your water supply remains intact whatever the circumstances.
Our water tanks are designed in accordance with NF E 86-410 for underground tanks and NF EN 12285-2, CODRES, NF EN 14015 and NFE 86-257 for above-ground tanks, offering a solution that guarantees perfect, long-lasting watertightness.
Horizontal or vertical, cylindrical, single-walled, STEEL or STAINLESS STEEL, we can offer you wastewater tanks with volumes ranging from 1.5 m³ to 300 m³, thicknesses from 5 mm to 35 mm and diameters up to 6 m.
Numerous accessories are available to complement the reservoir (piping, walkway, strainer, access ladder, platform, manhole, etc.).
Drinking water tanks
We also offer “drinking water tanks”, specially designed for the storage of drinking water. These tanks are made from steel coated with an ACS (Attestation de Conformité Sanitaire) guaranteed paint for drinking water storage, ensuring that the water remains free from harmful substances.
Resistance and durability
Our “water tanks” and “drinking water tanks” are not only functional, they are also designed to be durable and long-lasting. We use only the highest quality materials and employ the most advanced manufacturing techniques to ensure that our tanks can stand the test of time. With volumes ranging from 1.5m³ to 150m³, diameters from Ø1250 to Ø3000 mm, and built to standard NF E 86-410, we’re with you every step of the way, right up to delivery of your water tanks and drinking water containers.

Our FAQs
What equipment can be mounted on a water tank
A water tank can be fitted with a variety of components to ensure its smooth operation and ease of use. Firstly, a slab frame is often fitted to a buried water tank to provide a solid anchor for the tank, guaranteeing its durability. A manhole can be installed to allow access and inspection of the tank interior. A float valve is also essential to regulate the water level inside the cistern and prevent overflow. A suction strainer is another common piece of equipment on a water cistern, enabling water to be drawn efficiently while filtering out impurities.
