Low weight rotomoulded hand wash tanks sprayers
Agricultural sprayers are standardly equipped with a hand wash water tank. This contains clean water so that the operator can wash his hands after coming into contact with crop protection products. These tanks often have a capacity of around 20 litres. Sometimes they are equipped with an integrated rotational moulded handle so that the tank can be carried to a water source for refilling. In this case, it is convenient that the tank itself is as lightweight as possible, which is most certainly the case with rotomoulded hand wash tanks. The tanks are made of high-quality polyethylene and have a low weight and rounded shape, making them lightweight and easy to install on agricultural sprayers, as well as extremely safe to use.
Integration of functionalities in plastic hand washing tanks
In rotationally moulded designs, multiple functions of the manufactured product can be integrated. Thus, additional parts that are part of the hand wash water tanks can be seamlessly moulded in one go during the production process of the product. This eliminates the need for additional product processing and assembly of the necessary components. Among the components of hand wash tank sprayers that can be integrated into the product during the moulding process are:
- A threaded opening on which a screw cap can be mounted
- A solid rounded and ergonomic handle
- A threaded metal insert into which a drain valve can be fitted
Accurate 3D scanning service for rotomoulded premium products
At Rotovia, we offer a comprehensive 3D scanning service, from physical scanning to post-processing. Our scanning service accurately measures rotomoulded products in 3D, providing extremely accurate measurement data. With this service, our customers not only gain precise 3D models of their custom moulded products, but also the ability to use the collected information in the design or quality control process.

Plastic hand washing tanks with a long service life
Rotomoulded polyethylene is coloured throughout and has excellent UV resistance, colour fastness, weather resistance and impact resistance. This means that our rotomoulded hand wash water tanks or mix tanks for sprayers have a long service life and maintain a good appearance, even when exposed to sunlight.
For this reason, many applications for rotomoulding can be found in agricultural machinery. Agricultural equipment has to work under extreme weather conditions for many years.
Compared to painted steel parts, which require regular maintenance to avoid rusting, rotomoulded products like our hand wash tank sprayers are virtually maintenance-free. And given the efficient production technique in which multiple functions can be integrated, it is a cost-effective solution. What’s more, polyethylene is excellent for recycling. Rotovia transforms the recycled material from old rotomoulded products back into sustainable, high-quality new products such as water tanks for hand washing.
