Stephens Industries Joins the NFU – Supporting British Farmers with durable liners and expert installation
Supporting UK Agriculture with Reliable Water Storage and Slurry Management
At Stephens Industries, we’re delighted to announce that we are now proud members of the National Farmers’ Union (NFU).
Joining the NFU reflects our ongoing commitment to supporting the UK’s farming community with high-quality agricultural water storage solutions and slurry containment systems. We help farms become more efficient, sustainable, and prepared for the future.
With increasing pressure on water resources, changing weather patterns, and growing environmental responsibilities, effective water and slurry management has never been more important. We’re proud to work alongside farmers across the UK, providing durable EPDM lining systems that protect valuable water supplies, support compliant slurry storage, and help agricultural businesses thrive.
Why Agricultural Water Storage and Slurry Containment Matter More Than Ever
Water is one of the most valuable resources on any farm. Whether it’s used for livestock, irrigation, crop spraying, or general farm operations, having a secure and dependable water supply is essential. Equally important is the safe storage of slurry and other agricultural effluents. Well designed slurry storage solutions and dirty water containment systems help farms meet environmental regulations while protecting surrounding land and watercourses.
Modern farming faces several challenges, including:
- Longer periods of drought and unpredictable rainfall
- Rising water costs
- Increasing environmental regulations
- The need to maximise every litre of stored water
- Safe and compliant slurry storage
- Greater demand for sustainable farming practices
Investing in high-quality farm reservoir liners, slurry lagoon liners and other agricultural containment systems helps farmers build resilience while protecting valuable resources and the environment.
Complete Water and Slurry Containment Solutions
Stephens Industries has decades of experience supplying and installing geomembrane lining systems for agricultural applications throughout the UK.
From farm reservoir liners and irrigation storage to slurry lagoon lining and livestock water storage, we provide solutions tailored to each farm’s site, capacity and operational needs.
Farm Reservoir Liners for Agricultural Water Storage
Farm reservoirs provide a dependable source of stored water throughout the year. Our high-performance agricultural reservoir liner systems are designed to minimise leakage while providing exceptional long-term durability.
Our farm reservoir liners support a range of applications, including:
- Irrigation reservoirs
- Livestock water storage
- Rainwater harvesting
- On-farm water storage
Whether you’re developing a new reservoir or improving an existing water storage facility, a suitable lining system helps protect your farm’s stored water.
Slurry Lagoon Liners and Slurry Storage Solutions
Proper slurry storage is essential for efficient farm management and environmental compliance. Stephens Industries supplies and installs durable geomembrane lining systems for slurry lagoons and storage facilities, helping farmers safely contain slurry while reducing the risk of leaks and groundwater contamination.
Our slurry lagoon liners are designed to withstand demanding agricultural conditions. Our slurry storage solutions can be tailored to suit both new installations and refurbishment projects.
Applications include:
- Slurry lagoons
- Slurry storage ponds
- Digestate storage liners
- Dirty water containment
By investing in a professionally lined slurry storage system, farms can improve operational efficiency, help meet current regulations, and protect the surrounding environment.
Agricultural Lagoon Liners for Water and Effluent Storage
We supply robust agricultural lagoon liners to help farms safely contain water, slurry and other liquids while meeting environmental requirements.
Our geomembrane lining systems can be specified for applications including:
- Irrigation lagoons
- Dirty water storage
- Process water containment
- Agricultural wastewater management
Each lagoon lining project is tailored to suit the specific site, the liquid being stored and the farm’s operational requirements.
Irrigation Reservoir Liners for Dependable Water Storage
Efficient irrigation starts with dependable water storage.
Our irrigation reservoir liners help farmers retain captured winter rainfall and maximise water availability during the growing season. Secure irrigation storage can reduce reliance on mains supplies and supporting healthier crop production.
By combining farm rainwater harvesting with appropriately designed agricultural water storage solutions, farmers can make better use of available rainfall.
Livestock Water Storage and Containment Systems
Reliable livestock water storage is essential for animal welfare and everyday farm operations.
We work with farms of every size to provide durable water containment systems that help maintain a dependable supply for livestock. Our lining solutions support the storage infrastructure farms need to manage their water resources throughout the year.
Durable Geomembrane Lining Systems and EPDM Rubber Liners
Every farm is different, which is why we offer a range of geomembrane materials and bespoke lining options suitable for different applications and budgets.
These include:
- EPDM rubber liners
- Custom fabricated liner systems
Material selection takes account of durability, UV resistance, chemical resistance, flexibility and long service life. We help identify an appropriate lining system for the intended water storage or slurry containment application.
Whether a project requires farm reservoir liners, agricultural lagoon liners or slurry storage lining, choosing the right material is an essential part of a dependable containment system.
