Conservation of Natural Resources is
nothing but byproduct of our Lifestyle!!!
• “RETAS”(Sanskrit for water droplet)

defines the seed and elixir of life. Our
foundation is built on the idea of
conserving water, protecting the resource
from depletion and keeps evolving
ourselves unless we reach our goal –
which water remains a natural resource
for everyone.

Key Features of Rainmaxx Tanks™
Advantages :
a. Secure the tanks width and length

b. Ties each tank both vertically and horizontally to another
c. Allows the installer to review with one look if the installation is evenly done.
d. Allows you to walk over the tank during installation
e. Allows for Engineers and architects to correctly ensure that all modular tanks are fully
butted to each other, creating a very solid lockable and stable structure before
compaction and fill around the sides of modular tank.
