Water
Tanks In Australia
The
water tank in Australia has long been an obvious
necessity in rural areas.
The need has not been so obvious in urban Australia until recently.
Now, a combination of record populations, high water usage, and
the worst drought in generations has seen authorities change from
opposing urban water tanks in Australia. Now they
are encouraged, often with government rebates. In other cases, they
are being mandated by government, and most jurisdictions require
a water tank to be fitted to a new home.
Not
only is government regulation of water tanks in Australia moving
towards a water tank on most new homes, but a rapidly increasing
number of existing home owners are installing water storage tanks
for their homes.
The
choice is amazing. Concrete water tanks aren't
often used in urban areas. Metal
water tanks are very popular in both urban and rural
Australia. We supply Tankworks Australia Colorbond® tanks, as well as Rhino large steel water tanks
for rural, industrial and commercial use. Bladder
tanks are great for under-deck or under-house use.
The most popular water tanks in Australia with urban
customers are the modern poly tanks, also known
as plastic, PE or polyethylene tanks. These long-life tanks come
in a variety of shapes, a wide range of colours, and a bewildering
assortment of brand names. There are more brands of water tanks
than you can poke a stick at- Nylex
Plastank, Bushman, Clark
Tanks, Team
Poly, Duraplas, Precison
Poly, Poly
Water Tanks, the former ARI
Plastank and a host of others around the country.
The proliferation of brands is a product of the cost of trucking
the tanks long distances.
On
this website, we have chosen an extensive range for our customers
by a stellar cast of water tank suppliers...
Since 1997, Clark Tanks have been making superior-quality poly water tanks. Starting with just one factory in Dalby, Queensland, Clark Tanks have grown into Australia's largest poly water tank company.
Today, Clark Tanks have five factories- at Dalby and Brisbane in Queensland, Bathurst in NSW. and Moama and Melbourne in Victoria. Their sister company, Tanks Direct, services Northern and Central Queensland.
Clark Tanks
offer high-quality, top features and excellent pricing.
Nylex
has been an iconic Australian brand for generations, and recent
years have seen them expanding their operations in the water tank
field.
Starting with the purchase of the ARI Plastank business
at Pakenham, near Melbourne, they now also have factories in Sydney,
Brisbane and Bundaberg. Nylex water tanks are some of the best tanks
in Australia. Nylex water tanks are available to customers in Victorai,
NSW, ACT and Queensland.
Another
iconic Australian company is Hills Industries, now making it's mark
in the water and energy-saving field.
Taking over one of the largest water tank businesses
in Australia, Team Poly Water Tanks,
has helped propel Hills past the magic A$1 billion turnover mark.
You'll
immediately notice that Team Poly
water tanks use the traditional corrugated-iron-style profile.
Not
all tank manufacturers are $billion companies. Sometimes there are
brilliant designs, high quality manufacture and extra geograhical
spread from other manufacturers, and EFP is happy to supply water
tanks from suppliers like Poly Water
Tanks. With a unique range of round and slimline
tanks from 700 to 5000 litres, you can purchase Poly
Water Tanks in the Brisbane, Sydney, Canberra, Melbourne
and Adelaide Regions.
As
the business of water tanks in Australia has moved from just rural,
to strongly urban, a new breed of water tank has emerged for space-challenge
urban cutomers- the slimline water tank.
Precision
Poly saw the need for slimline tanks, and developed
an innovative range of good-looking slimline tanks, from 1100 to
3000 litres.
Customers now enjoy the Precision Poly slimline
style in the Brisbane, Sydney, Canberra and Melbourne regions.
A
new breed of underground water tanks has developed, such as Tankmasta,
and become common in new home construction. Featuring rugged, shallow
design, they are the "best water tanks you'll never see."!
The
Nylex DownUnda underground
water tank also continues this trend.
The
new breed of water tanks can not only save gardens, they can harvest
rainwater and directly feed toilets, washing machines, even whole
houses, using products such as the Onga
WaterSwitch.
Watering
gardens uses rainwater for half the year in most areas- using the
water inside the house really starts saving water all year
round. Most States have rebates to help you do this, and the WaterSwitch
is the ideal product for the job.
As a customer, you also have to choose where

do you buy from? Here,
