Pure Rain Barrel
Made in Belgium from 100% Recyclable Materials
Sustainable water management is becoming increasingly important, and a rain barrel is the smart and simple solution. Collect free rainwater, an eco-friendly approach for watering your garden or washing windows. Every litre you save from the tap also helps reduce your water bill.
Rain barrels are an accessible and affordable alternative to large, integrated rainwater systems. They are easy to install and available in a variety of sizes and styles.
The PRACTO Garden Pure premium rain barrel is a perfect example of what’s possible:
- Made in Belgium
- Manufactured from 100% recycled materials
- UV and water-resistant, suitable for all seasons
- Stylish and practical, without compromising on durability
- Infinitely connectable, ideal for small to large gardens
How Does a Rain Barrel Work?
Using a rain barrel is simple:
- Rainwater collection: your roof acts as a large catchment area
- Pipe to the barrel: water flows through the gutter into the rain barrel instead of the sewer
- Rain collector: automatically stops filling when the barrel is full; excess water drains through an overflow pipe
- Usage: water is dispensed via a tap into a watering can or hose. The higher the barrel, the better the water pressure thanks to gravity
Key Benefits of a Rain Barrel
- Sustainable: use rainwater instead of tap water
- Cost-saving: reduce your water bill by using collected water for your garden, cleaning, or car washing
- Drought-resistant: always have your own water supply
- Flood prevention: collecting rainwater helps reduce sewer overload

The right volume depends on your water usage and available space. PRACTO Garden rain barrels range from 100 L to 2000 L.
The Pure rain barrel is available in 350 L and 700 L, common volumes for residential use..
- Style and design: The Pure model is a wall-mounted barrel with a sleek black finish. You’ll also find classic (green/anthracite), designer models, 2-in-1 barrels with planters, or even foldable barrels for easy winter storage.
- Connectable: multiple barrels can be linked together for extra capacity, an option also available for Pure.
- Taps: plastic (included with Pure), brass, or chrome for easy access
- Rain collecter: prevents overflow and ensures automatic filling

Installation and Maintenance
For optimal performance:
- Flat, stable surface: a full barrel can be heavy
- Close to a gutter: for easy connection
- Winter preparation: disconnect the barrel in freezing temperatures. The Pure barrel includes a convenient winter drain for easy emptying
