The hippo water roller is a barrel-shaped container. It improves access to water by rolling 90 litres (24 gal) along the ground. It was specifically designed to alleviate the suffering caused by traditional methods of transporting water in buckets. It carries more water more efficiently.
Currently, all hippo rollers are manufactured in and shipped from south africa. However, exporting completed rollers is expensive, often doubling the cost. A mobile manufacturing unit has been introduced, whereby rollers can be built locally and at a lower landed cost.
