Overview
Vehicle-mounted plastic tanks are used for storing water, waste, fuel, chemicals, and process fluids in utes, 4×4 vehicles, trucks, trailers, and service vehicles.
We manufacture custom vehicle-mounted plastic tanks to customer drawings and specifications, supplying welded tanks designed to suit tray dimensions, chassis layouts, and mounting requirements.
Plastic tanks are commonly used in utes and 4×4 vehicles due to their corrosion resistance, lighter weight compared to steel, and ability to be fabricated to fit tight or irregular spaces.

Custom Manufactured to Suit Utes & 4x4 Setups
Vehicle tanks are rarely off-the-shelf - especially for:
- Dual cab ute trays
- Canopy setups
- 4×4 touring vehicles
- Service bodies
- Under-tray installations
- Custom tray builds
We manufacture tanks to suit:
- Tray dimensions and wheel arches
- Canopy layouts
- Chassis clearances
- Existing mounting brackets
- Pipework and pump locations
We work from:
- CAD files (STEP, DWG, DXF)
- Dimensioned sketches
- Site measurements
- Existing tanks supplied as samples
Tanks can be supplied as one-off builds or repeat production runs.

Typical Applications
Vehicle-mounted plastic tanks are commonly used for:
- Water tanks for utes and 4×4 touring setups
- Trade and service vehicle tanks
- Spray tanks for agriculture and landscaping
- Chemical storage tanks
- Waste and grey water tanks
- Mining and civil site vehicles
They are widely used across trade, agriculture, mining, off-road touring, and civil industries.
Key Performance Requirements
Vehicle tanks must account for:
- Road vibration and corrugation (especially in 4×4 use)
- Fluid sloshing during braking and cornering
- Secure mounting to trays or chassis
- Weight distribution within the vehicle
- UV exposure for exposed installations
- Chemical compatibility
Incorrect mounting or insufficient support is the most common cause of tank failure.
