Wholesome water, commonly known as drinking water, is treated water that is safe to consume and use in daily activities such as cooking, cleaning, and bathing. Wholesome water has undergone a purification and filtration process to remove all contaminants and pathogens, meeting the standards from The Water Supply (Water Quality) Regulations 2016.
For businesses, the significance of making the distinction between wholesome and non-wholesome water cannot be overstated, as it is essential for maintaining public health and hygiene.

All water is abstracted under licence from the water network, which is maintained and provided by the water authority for the area we are operating in, e.g. United Utility, Yorkshire Water, Thames Water and others.
All tankers and equipment used for distributing wholesome water are cleaned, disinfected, and stored in line with the guidance provided in BS 8551:2015. We conduct visual and chemical water quality tests at the point of abstraction and prior to delivery to ensure that the water quality is not affected nor contaminated.
Operators are professionally trained to transfer wholesome water and verify that hygiene and anti-contamination procedures are adhered to.
Universal Tankers monitors any changes to legislation and annually reviews all of our policies and procedures to maintain strict quality control.
