Why BPA-Free Tanks Matter for Your Family’s Health

When you store water, you expect it to be safe. Yet not all water tanks are created equal. Many cheaper options use plastics that can leach harmful chemicals into your supply. One of the most concerning is BPA, a chemical linked to serious long-term health problems. Choosing a large plastic water tank from a trusted provider ensures your stored water remains safe and reliable. For families relying on stored water, the risks are too important to ignore.

What is BPA?

BPA, or bisphenol A, is an industrial chemical found in many plastics. Research shows that when BPA comes into contact with drinking water, it can leach into your supply and be consumed by your family. This exposure has been linked to hormonal disruption, developmental issues in children, and even increased cancer risk.

Why Water Tanks Are Different

Disposable plastic bottles hold water for days. A water tank stores thousands of litres for months or years. If the tank is made with BPA-containing plastics, every litre you drink, cook with, wash with, or bathe in may carry chemical residues. That exposure is ongoing. Over time, it adds up.

The Hidden Danger for Children

Children are the most vulnerable. Their smaller bodies and growing systems make them far more sensitive to contaminants. Even low levels of BPA can disrupt development and affect long-term health. Parents choosing a tank to protect their family may unknowingly introduce a silent, ongoing risk.
