“Damian is an amazing guy and we have a wonderful working relationship. In 2008 when I invented the idea of Kliptank and plastic tanks, people thought I was mad. The engineers I reached out to didn’t want to have a bar of it, they rubbished me and the ideas. All the engineers were too focused on concrete and steel, they didn’t know enough about plastics. But when I spoke to Damian, he said, he wasn’t sure if it could be done, it would need a lot of research but let’s see what we can do. We’ve been working with them ever since.”
