Services
Rotational Moulding
Our rotational moulding process creates seamless, stress-free plastic products with uniform wall thickness. Using high-density polyethylene, we manufacture tanks and components resistant to corrosion and UV degradation. This technique allows complex geometries for specialised industrial applications.
Polyethylene Tanks
We produce polyethylene tanks for liquid storage and transport across agriculture, firefighting, and water treatment sectors. Available in cone-bottom, universal, and custom configurations with capacities from 1000L upwards. All tanks feature full-drainage designs for complete content evacuation.
Firefighting Units
Our firefighting equipment includes portable, truck-mounted, and trailer-mounted units with integrated pumps and hose systems. Designed for rapid deployment in rural and industrial settings, these units meet Australian fire service specifications for emergency response operations.
Industrial Tanks
Custom-engineered industrial tanks for chemical storage, wastewater treatment, and manufacturing processes. Available with integrated fittings and instrumentation ports. Constructed from food-grade polymers suitable for pharmaceutical and food processing applications.
Agricultural Tanks
Specialist agricultural storage solutions including fertiliser, water, and chemical tanks with UV-stabilised construction. Features include forklift pockets, level indicators, and compatibility with boom spray systems for precision farming operations.

Report
I have been dealing with Rota Moulding WA since the mid 90's and am very happy to endorse them. The range is superb, the support before and after the sale is second to none and the product is made here in Western Australia.
