Precast concrete septic tanks are generally more robust than tanks made of steel, plastic or high-density polyethylene. Precast concrete is supple enough to endure excessive loading conditions without the worry of collapse or failure and has many other benefits over tanks which are made of different materials.
Precast concrete septic tanks provide the simplest form of off mains drainage sewage plant treatment. This is provided that suitable soakaway conditions are available for disposal of the final effluent.
A wide range of septic tanks are available- which are designed to civil engineering standards in full compliance with Building Regulations section H and BS 6797, to treat domestic sewage for population equivalents from 4 to over 100 people.
