Water scarcity

Increased demand and environmental factors are putting pressure on already stretched UK water resources. Businesses can help address this, while protecting their operations in the event of supply outage.

Emergency planning

We understand that the first priority for any business is its customers. A water supply outage of any kind can have a major impact on or even halt operations for many organisations, from restaurants to sports stadiums and from medical facilities to manufacturing plants.

Our expert contingency and emergency response planning ensures sites have robust processes in place to remain safe and operational during a wholesaler supply outage.

Tankers, bowsers & bottled water

In a crisis, we can ensure you have a water supply of the right quality to keep your business running. We can deliver our 25,000-litre water tankers, small trailers or pallets of bottled water swiftly when a supply is interrupted. Hospitals and prisons are among the critical services to benefit from our tankered drinking water in an emergency.

We’ve also sourced demineralised tankered water at short notice to keep industrial operations running, while manufacturing customers make use of our tankered water to see them through planned shutdowns.

Overland mains

During an emergency or planned outage, one solution for higher demand situations is a temporary overland mains installation. Working with local expert partners, we ensure compliance with safety requirements, that the installation is appropriately sized and that it’s suitably maintained during extended periods of use. The result is business as usual for your customers and staff.

Efficiency is key

The long-term solution to water scarcity lies in all of our hands - starting with the efficient use of water. As well as conserving this precious natural resource, saving water also leads to lower bills. We provide our customers with an extensive portfolio of services to help them achieve their goals in water efficiency and neutrality.
