Tips for uploading a poster

  • Please ensure only high resolution, high quality images are submitted
  • Image files should be in .JPG, .PDF or .PNG formats
  • Uploaded files are limited to 20MB
  • Original posters can either be scanned or photographed

About Coliban Water

We're in the business of providing safe drinking water and waste water services for public health, but there's so much more that we do.

While the services we provide underpin our region, a lot of what we do at Coliban Water is not highly visible. Every time a tap is turned on or a toilet flushed, you can rest assured we're hard at work.

Our water treatment facilities run 24/7 and our extensive network of pipes run underneath the 49 towns we serve. We manage nearly $2 billion in assets across central and northern Victoria.

We're here to support our customers, and enhance the environment in which we work.
