About Rotomould Group
The Rotomould Group of Companies, with its headquarters in Fiji, is a multi-national company whose core business is manufacturing polyethylene products, predominantly water tanks under the brand name of Rota Tanks using rotational moulding technology.
Established in 2000, the Rotomould Group has grown exponentially and we are one of the largest polyethylene tank manufacturing companies in the South Pacific, manufacturing over 8,000 tanks annually.
We have a strong manufacturing base which consists of technical persons who have been involved in rotational moulding for a number of years. Fiji, which serves as the hub/headquarters for all our subsidiaries, has the know-how to manufacture our own machinery, tank moulds and other plastic products linked to rotational moulding.
Our locations
We have 8 manufacturing plants in total – in Fiji (Lautoka and Labasa), Tonga, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Kiribati, and Vanuatu (Port Vila and Santo). We also regularly supply our water tanks to Papua New Guinea, Nauru, Christmas Island, Wallis and Futuna and the Marshalls.
History
A drive on a rainy day, seeing people lined up on the side of the road waiting for water after a devastating hurricane, sowed the seed for providing a more affordable and durable alternative to concrete and fibreglass tanks to the people of the Pacific.
The Rotomould Group of Companies was borne out of a desire to provide access to clean and safe drinking water to Pacific Island communities. First established in Fiji, in the year 2000, we have remained true to our commitment and now have 8 factories in 6 countries in the South Pacific region.
As a Group, we have over 22 years’ experience in rotational moulding and producing high quality water tanks. All our manufacturing plants are certified to the ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management System and our tanks are certified to AS/NZS 4766 international standards for polyethylene tanks.
Ownership
We are a private family-owned business with three directors who oversee all aspects of operations. They work closely with the management team at the head office as well as regional managers to ensure the ongoing profitability of the company.
Our Managing Director has vast experience in plastics, engineering and business management. His work experience with multinationals such as Colgate Palmolive and Johnson & Johnson have been major contributors to the business acumen today. Prakash Industries, a bottle manufacturing and packaging company was born as the initial investment. A few years later, Rotomould (Fiji) Ltd was started and we have prospered over the years to our current flagship factory which manufactures AS/NZS 4766 certified water tanks.
