The final design decision was to somehow duplicate the appearance of a fence. The result was the 1000 Litre ThinTanks with fence columns between each tank using more than one water tank as a dividing fence. Defining the shape, size and appearance was the vision of an inventive qualified civil engineer with 50 years’ experience in plastics and water treatment who’s been a part of and an inspiration to this continuing innovation of ThinTanks.

Designing and manufacturing the product to meet these criteria required far more technical inspiration, time and financial commitment.

In 2007 the successful 1000 Litre ThinTanks was launched into the Australian market. This success led to the development of the 2000 Litre ThinTanks which has become the most popular size among the range.

In October 2012 the 3000 Litre was designed, manufactured and launched to add another fantastic size tank. This tank completed the range of residential rainwater tanks to meet any residential home need.

In 2020 the 4000 Litre ThinTanks came into production to meet the needs of the ever-growing regulatory demand. Whilst it is the biggest tank in the range yet, it is still a slender 75cm wide and the Silver Winner in Sustainable Living/ Residential Sustainable Design at the 2020 International Design Awards in Los Angeles, California.

The same year, ThinTanks expanded its product lines to satisfy customer demands and needs and launched the ThinTanks Fat range, the 1333L and 2000L Fat Tank.

ThinPots

ThinTanks also support Eco living. The ThinPots was designed in 2017 and is a planter pot that can become a self-watering vertical garden to compliment the ThinTanks. The aim is to provide environmentally sustainable alternatives and solutions to help homes be more eco friendly but at the same time easy to maintain and visually pleasing.
