Stackable Water Tanks - 50 Litres
Product Overview
The 50 Litre Stackable Water Tank is a compact, durable and practical solution for the storage and transportation of potable water.
Manufactured from MDPE / polyethylene, this upright tank provides a nominal capacity of 50 litres, making it particularly useful where a smaller water supply is required or where available storage space is limited.
The tank has been designed with integrated carry handles, making it easier to move and position when empty. The handles can also be used as tie-down points when the tank is being transported or installed as part of a mobile water system.
One of the main advantages of this tank is its stackable design. Multiple tanks can be stacked for transit when empty, helping to maximise available storage and transport space. This makes the tank particularly useful for businesses and users who need to transport or store several units at once.
The natural version is made from translucent material, allowing the approximate water level to be monitored through the tank wall.
With an empty weight of approximately 7 kg and dimensions of 300 × 500 × 370 mm, the tank offers a useful combination of portability, compact storage and practical water capacity.

Compact & Portable Design
The 50 Litre Stackable Water Tank provides a convenient water storage capacity within a compact footprint.
Measuring approximately 300 × 500 × 370 mm, it can be used in areas where larger tanks would be impractical.
The relatively low empty weight of approximately 7 kg also makes the tank easy to move and position before filling.
This makes it suitable for applications such as:
- Portable water storage
- Potable water transportation
- Mobile cleaning
- Window cleaning
- Car valeting
- Vehicle cleaning
- Agricultural applications
- Horticultural applications
- Temporary water supplies
- Commercial cleaning
- General-purpose water storage
The compact dimensions can also make the tank useful where water needs to be stored in smaller quantities or distributed across several individual containers.
Stackable Design
The tank has been specifically designed to be stackable when empty.
This allows multiple tanks to be stacked together during transportation or storage, helping to make efficient use of available space.
The stackable design can be particularly beneficial for:
- Event companies
- Cleaning businesses
- Agricultural users
- Commercial contractors
- Water supply businesses
- Vehicle operators
- Equipment hire companies
- Users transporting multiple tanks
Stacking tanks when empty can significantly reduce the space required compared with storing each tank individually.
When stacking, the tanks should be placed securely on a suitable, stable surface and handled in accordance with safe manual handling practices.
The stackable feature is intended for empty tanks during transit and storage.
Integrated Carry Handles
The tank incorporates carry handles to make it easier to move and position.
These handles are particularly useful when the tank is empty or contains a relatively small amount of water.
The handles can also be used as tie-down points where the tank needs to be secured during transportation.
When used as tie-down points, suitable securing equipment should be used and the tank should be restrained in a way that prevents movement.
The tank should not be lifted by the lid, outlet or connected pipework.
Applications
The 50 Litre Stackable Water Tank is suitable for a wide range of applications where compact, portable water storage is required.
Typical applications include:
- Potable water storage
- Portable water supplies
- Water transportation
- Window cleaning
- Car valeting
- Mobile vehicle cleaning
- Commercial cleaning
- Agricultural applications
- Horticultural applications
- Irrigation
- Temporary water storage
- Vehicle-based water systems
- General-purpose water storage
The ability to stack multiple empty tanks also makes the product particularly useful for commercial users who regularly transport or store several units.

Overseas orders
