Hiekkaharju water tower, Water tower in Hiekkaharju, Vantaa, Finland.

The Hiekkaharju water tower rises 46 meters above ground with a cylindrical tank supported by 15 steel box pillars and metal cladding.

Following the collapse of Kangasvuori water tower in 2012, Helsinki Region Environmental Services expedited the construction of this new facility in autumn 2017.

The tower design, named Siluetti, incorporates perforated metal sheets that reflect water bubbles and integrates LED lighting to enhance the cityscape.

The structure contains two separate tanks with a total capacity of 8,000 cubic meters, securing water supply for the eastern districts of Vantaa.

The foundation of this water tower stands as one of the largest slab foundations among similar structures in Finland.
