Sustainability
Aquabox creates concrete-free tanks made entirely of recycled plastic, which increases the sustainability of stormwater management projects.
Aquabox is more sustainable and profitable than concrete tanks
1 November 2023
Concrete production is not on track and reducing its use is crucial for making the construction industry more sustainably profitable. Aquabox is made of recycled plastic modules that offer several advantages over concrete stormwater management tanks.
Productivity
While concrete tanks require at least a week of work, a 300 m3 Aquabox basin can be assembled by only 5 workers in 3 days.

Less machinery
Unlike concrete tanks, Aquabox allows fast and easy manual installation, which reduces the use of machinery on the construction site.
