Istanbul: Turkish prefabricated structure manufacturer Karmod said it completed more than 100 rainwater harvesting tank projects in the first half of 2025, driven by growing demand for sustainable water solutions.

According to Anadolu Agency, Karmod Plastic Group Sales Manager Selcuk Kaya noted that companies are increasingly turning to rainwater harvesting systems amid the visible impacts of global warming. "Our projects have mainly been installed for factories, luxury villas and social facilities," Kaya stated.

Kaya highlighted that requests for Karmod's rainwater harvesting tanks indicate a shift towards sustainable solutions, primarily for landscape irrigation and general-purpose needs. He mentioned that this system, long utilized in Europe, is becoming more prevalent in Trkiye.

Karmod produces underground rainwater harvesting tanks featuring integrated pump chambers, offering single-body capacities of up to 100 tons. These tanks are engineered for long-term durability beneath the soil, requiring minimal maintenance.

Once installed underground with proper access covers, the tanks store filtered rainwater collected via connected gutters and piping. The integrated pump system is designed to deliver the water for various uses such as landscaping, general operations, or fire safety storage.
