Looking for an Oil Tank?
Where to buy, what you need to know:
Your oil tank is the most important consideration when using oil. Oil is one of our most precious resources and must be treated with respect in terms of use, storage and waste control. It is imperative to store oil in a bunded oil tank.
Use a bunded oil tank
A bunded oil tank is the safest way to store oil in the home or the workplace. A bunded oil tank is a secondary tank surrounding the oil container. If the inner oil tank should fail in any way, the secondary oil tank will contain any leak and prevent waste and potentially dangerous spillage.
Manufactured in the UK
UK Bunded Fuel Tanks are reknown for being manufacturers of top quality bunded oil tanks. The regulations in the UK are particularly stringent, meaning they produce strong, reliable and safe bunded oil tanks.
The law and EU regulations
Always use a quality bunded oil tank that meets all laws and regulations. If an oil tank has not been through a series of rigorous safety checks it should not be used. The EU has published strict regulations governing oil tank safety in The Control of Pollution Regulations, 2001. An oil tank that does not meet these guidelines is dangerous and illegal.
Oil Tank Security
Oil tank selection is paramount to ensure the security of your fuel - a bunded oil tank should always be used. Responsible fuel storage means using an oil tank that is strong and secure. A secure oil tank should prevent vandalism and theft. As well as being a costly inconvenience, vandalism can lead to large amounts of spillage which is dangerous and harmful to the environment.
Fuel on the move
Oil should be transported in a road tow bowser. A road tow fuel bowser is a mobile bunded oil tank. Road tow fuel bowsers should be compliant with The 2001 Control of Pollution Regulations Act. A good road tow fuel bowser will come with towing hitch, brakes and trailer board.
