Bulk Water For Remote Communities - 1,000 Litre Transportable Aquapax
The 1,000 Litre Transportable Aquapax is a revolutionary new way to provide bulk micro-filtered drinking water to people and businesses in remote regions all over Australia and the world.
Following years of collaborative product laboratory testing, research and development, North Queensland Company Waterfarms Australia Pty Ltd is proud to announce the release of its new "one–way" and fully recyclable 1,000 Litre bulk drinking water pack known as the Transportable Aquapax.
The Transportable Aquapax water unit essentially comprises an octagonal–shaped outer cardboard box (for strength), which houses a uniquely designed inner liner barrier bag, which has been scientifically developed to ensure that the encapsulated water retains its quality and integrity for longer periods of time, without risk of taint from exposure to oxygen or other surrounding contaminants which may affect taste and odour of drinking water in general.
Whilst most Australians take their seemingly unlimited access to excellent quality drinking water at the turn of a tap for granted, there are many others in regional, remote communities of our dry continent who have limited or no access to safe drinking water. The release of our new 1,000 Litre Transportable Aquapax product, will now afford all Australians equal access to safe, micro-filtered, drinking water on request.
The development and subsequent release of the all new 1,000 Litre Transportable Aquapax has been born out of the need to provide:
- A "one-way" bulk drinking water pack that can be pallet mounted for ease of transport on commercial trucks, rail freight carriages and private utility vehicles.
- A "one-way" bulk drinking water pack that has an extended product life span which includes an unparalleled HACCP certified Best Before date of 2 Years.
- A "one-way" bulk drinking water pack that is fully recyclable following end usage.
- A "one-way" bulk drinking water pack that provides its own easy to use (tamper proof) ball valve (2inch / 50mm) for safe and easy dispensing of water.
- A "one-way" bulk drinking water pack that is packaged in such a way that it can be deemed fully waterproof. NOTE: All product packaging is Ultra-Violet light (UV) fortified and is made from "food safe" materials which comply with the requirements of AS2070-1999 and all other relevant FDA regulations.
- A "one way" bulk drinking water pack that clearly displays all NATA ACCREDITED (typical laboratory analysis) information on its external packaging which informs the end user of the scientific mineral make-up of the water contained within and all other relevant product information.
- A "one-way" bulk drinking water pack which can be packed on to international sized pallets and stacked on top of each other, such that a total of 20 full Transportable Aquapax can be loaded into a shipping container at any one time. NOTE: A total of 20,000 litres of water in 20 separate and individual Transportable Aquapax can therefore be transported in a single 20 foot shipping container to anywhere in Australia, or the world.
- A "one-way" bulk drinking water pack (unlike any other two-way bulk water or 15 & 19 Litre polycarbonate cooler bottle options currently available on the market), that is tamper proof by design . This prevents the interference or tainting of the water contained within by the environment or others, ensuring the quality and integrity of water is exceptional until the drinking until the very last drop.
- A "one-way" bulk drinking water pack (unlike any other two-way bulk water or 15 & 19 Litre polycarbonate cooler bottle options currently available on the market), that never has to be returned to the supplier for cleaning and subsequent re-filling. NOTE: Given the Transportable Aquapax is not returned to the supplier after use, there is no need for return transport trucks, trains etc to collect empty containers, which is ultimately a net saving where environmental impact relating to carbon footprinting is concerned.
- A "one-way" bulk drinking water pack (unlike any other two-way bulk water or 15 & 19 Litre polycarbonate cooler bottle options currently available on the market), that does not rely upon using a cocktail of cleaning chemicals, sanitizers and sterilizing agents and which similarly does not rely upon wasting excessive amounts of water to clean returned containers prior to refilling and re-selling units to prospective customers.

Bulk Water Transportable Aquapax - Potential Markets
The release of our HACCP CERTIFIED Transportable Aquapax into the Australian market in November 2009 signals an exciting new era in the way premium quality, micro-filtered, bulk natural spring water can be easily accessed and enjoyed by all.
This is a breakthrough development, especially for the people, communities and businesses in far off and remote regions of Australia where access to safe quality drinking water is either weather dependent and seasonal, or non-existent.
There are so many applications for the Transportable Aquapax that it is impossible to list them all. Just some of the key markets Waterfarms Australia Pty Ltd has clearly identified, include:
- Emergency Response Teams
SES Response Teams, Cyclone Response Supplies, Bush Fire Response Teams, Flooded and Isolated Communities etc. - The Military
For use in military manoeuvres in Australia & overseas. - Overseas Aid / Disaster Aid
For use in overseas refugee camps, war zones, earthquake and tsunami victims aid and for third world country aid. - Remote Australian Communities Affected by Drought
Where respective Regional Councils and State Governments cannot provide safe supplies of drinking water to its community residents. - Remote Indigenous (Mainland & Island) Communities
Where respective indigenous community councils and / or State Government instrumentations can not adequately and safely supply the community residents with safe, quality drinking water. - Remote Mine Sites & Construction Sites
Where workers have limited access to a regular and reliable source of quality drinking water. - Utility Providers
Such as Ergon, Telstra, Transport Department, Queensland Rail and Main Roads Department. These utility providers will now be able to guarantee that safe drinking water is available to all remote area work crews by providing each remote work vehicle with its own Transportable Aquapax. - Remote Island Tourist Resorts & Remote National Parks
Each of these respective places could provide Transportable Aquapax for the supply of safe, quality drinking water to their visitors. - Large Outdoor Music Events and Conventions & Exhibitions
Each of these respective events could provide Transportable Aquapax for patrons at strategic locations around a venue such that dehydration of patrons is avoided at all costs. - Private Sales
Because Transportable Aquapax sits on top of a standard timber or plastic style pallet, they are ideally suited to be loaded onto a 1 ton utility vehicle or truck where they can be taken out to remote properties or weekenders and offloaded there to provide a safe and reliable source of quality drinking water. Likewise, homeowners can order a Transportable Aquapax as a temporary back-up water supply in the event of an approaching cyclone or natural disaster, or alternatively, locate a Transportable Aquapax on their new residential or rural allotment of land whilst building of their new house takes place and new municipal council water services are yet to be connected or water tanks have been installed.
