Universal Tankers supplies both potable and non-potable water, allowing you to choose the appropriate water quality for your intended application. The main difference is whether the water has been treated to drinking water standards, which determines how it can be used and the associated delivery costs.
Potable water is treated to meet the applicable drinking water quality standards across England, Wales and Scotland, making it suitable for human consumption. These standards are governed by the Water Supply (Water Quality) Regulations 2016 in England, the Water Supply (Water Quality) Regulations 2018 in Wales and the Public Water Supplies (Scotland) Regulations 2014 in Scotland. Drinking water quality is overseen by the Drinking Water Inspectorate (DWI) in England and Wales and the Drinking Water Quality Regulator for Scotland (DWQR) in Scotland.
Our potable water tanker deliveries support commercial premises, construction site welfare facilities, temporary accommodation and events where a safe drinking water supply is required. Potable water can also be used for food preparation, handwashing and other hygiene activities.
The main benefit of potable water is its suitability for applications requiring drinking-quality water, helping businesses maintain appropriate hygiene standards and provide safe water where mains supplies are unavailable or insufficient.

Non-potable water has not been treated to drinking water standards and is unsuitable for human consumption. However, it provides a cost-effective alternative for commercial, construction and industrial applications where drinking-quality water is not required.
Our non-potable water deliveries support activities such as dust suppression, water barrier filling, site cleaning, irrigation and certain industrial processes, subject to the water quality requirements of each application.
Using non-potable water for suitable activities can help reduce water supply costs while conserving treated drinking water resources. It also allows businesses to arrange bulk deliveries for operational requirements without paying for drinking-quality water unnecessarily.
