About the Nationwide Bottled Water Bank
At the heart of our bottled water service is our Nationwide Bottled Water Bank. The Water Direct Nationwide Bottled Water Bank stands as a pioneering resource, boasting over 4 million litres of bottled water, meticulously managed for rapid deployment across the UK. This unique and resilient stock enables us to respond swiftly to all requests, ensuring unparalleled water resilience that no other provider can match.
Why the Nationwide Bottled Water Bank Exists
Water utility companies are legally required to provide ‘wholesome’ drinking water at all times, in accordance with the Water Supply (Water Quality) Regulations. This obligation extends even during disruptions to the regular supply, necessitating alternative water sources that meet stringent legal definitions of ‘wholesome’ at the point of compliance.
As the only UK supplier of bottled water that adheres to these regulations, Water Direct is the trusted partner for water utility clients. Our quality-assured Nationwide Bottled Water Bank stock is integral to fulfilling requirements under the Security & Emergency Measures Direction (SEMD), providing peace of mind in any situation.
Benefits of Membership to the Bank
Our innovative model is simple yet effective. Each member deposits half of their SEMD requirement and Water Direct matches their deposit, creating a large reserve which is available nationwide ensuring prompt response in the event of an emergency.
Efficient Supply
Trusted by all major water utility companies and 650+ commercial clients projects, as well as full-scale emergency events.
Cost-Effective
