"South Africa is one of the many countries today faced with water problems, including the high cost of potable water to consumers," Engineering News quotes Rocla sales engineer Justin Kretzmar as saying. "In Australia, there has been a shift towards water sustainable cities and integrated water cycle management. These systems aim to conserve potable supply by implementing the rain water capture and reuse aspects of water-sensitive urban design," he added.

The sustainability of scarce resources is a global imperative and, with Rocla concrete tanks, the capability of existing water supply systems will extend to keep pace with population growth, according to the report in Engineering News.
