The Nationwide Bottled Water Bank
All of our utility clients use quality assured bottled water as their first response to emergency situations affecting the public.
Any alternative water supply they provide in these situations is an extention of the public water supply. Water Direct is the only water supplier in the UK able to provide bottled water which conforms to the Water Supply (Water Quality) Regulations 2000, as amended, at the point and time of deployment.
Large organisations needing an assured response with a quality assured water supply or water utility companies looking to underpin their local response plan, deposit pallets of water into the nationwide bank. In the event of an emergency, their deposit of water plus up to an agreed overdraft deployed on their behalf. That entire volume is then made available on each day of the emergency for deployment to the affected area.
The bottled water stock is held at various locations nationwide along with self off loading vehicles, in order to ensure a fast response to often critical situations to any part of the UK.
At any one time the volume of Nationwide Bottled Water Bank stock can range from 700,000 to 800,000 litres of quality assured bottled water, all ready for deployment. Plans are in place for escalation to in excess of 3 million litres per day.
