Why use a rainwater tank?
Water covers roughly 70% of the earth; however, only 3% of this water is fresh water and two-thirds of this freshwater is locked away in ice and glaciers. As such, water is fast becoming a scarce resource. Rainwater tanks in Australia minimise water wastage, retain water close to the source and reduce the strain on stormwater drainage systems. By using a poly rainwater tank, you are saving money and doing your part for the environment at the same time.
Poly tanks are some of the most robust water storage products. These rainwater tanks have extremely high longevity in the field and are particularly resistant to degradation compared to water tanks made from other materials.

There are several applications for poly water tanks in day-to-day life, primarily around the house, the farm, the business or in schools. Within the household, a water tank can provide a means by which to take pressure off the monthly water bills by providing you with a self-sustaining method of collecting and utilising rainwater. Similarly, on a farm, there is a definitive need for water whether it is being used for livestock, gardens, cropping or other uses around the farm.
At Bushman Tanks, we understand this innate need and our poly water tanks can help farmers achieve independence and make farm management easier. Businesses also have a need for a reliable source of water and our poly tanks can allow businesses to store water securely in a tank that can fit almost any environment or situation. Some of the potential uses for businesses involve stormwater management, on-site water supply, garden water, and using water in the production process.
At Bushman Tanks, we are proud supporters of the education system and acknowledge the important work teachers do in developing the future generations of Australia. Our polyethylene water tanks can be used in schools as a means of helping to teach children about sustainability and the importance of responsible water use with the increasing problem of water scarcity. We have been extensively involved in Landcare Australia’s initiatives centred around this topic.

Differences between poly rainwater tanks and other types of tanks
When comparing poly tanks to tanks made from other materials like steel or concrete, the advantages are clear. Polyethylene tanks are lighter, easier to install, and less prone to damage from weather and corrosion. They are also more cost-effective and versatile. Unlike steel tanks, poly tanks do not rust, and unlike concrete tanks, they are resistant to cracking.
Poly tanks are also:
- Seamless – Made from a single piece of polyethylene, reducing the risk of leaks
- Impact-resistant – Strong enough to withstand blows without denting or cracking
- Corrosion-resistant – Ideal for storing water in coastal areas or environments with high salt content
All our water tanks for sale are covered by the Bushman’s 10-year water tank guarantee, giving you confidence and peace of mind.
When considering the differences between the types of water tanks to purchase, it is important to understand the differences between materials such as plastic, steel, fibreglass, and concrete. Each material has its own advantages and disadvantages in terms of durability, corrosion resistance, and ease of installation.
