Kaikoura earthquake, costly to wineries

The 14 November, 2016  Kaikoura earthquake saw devastation across the region. Many wineries were affected with sever damage to stainless steel wine storage tanks. In contrast, no damage was inflicted on any Flextank storage tanks. As a result, many wineries are seeking more inexpensive alternatives to traditional stainless steel. This in turn has led many wineries to purchase water tanks.
