Harlequin Bunded Tanks
Environmentally responsible fuel storage has never been easier or more affordable!
A Bunded Tank consists of 'a tank within a tank'. The inner tank is the primary fuel storage vessel, whilst the outer tank acts as a failsafe containment system. Therefore, in the event of a spillage (e.g. as a result of the inner tank being overfilled), surplus fuel will be safely contained within the outer tank and this, a potentially expensive pollution incident will be averted.
Harlequin Bunded Tanks have been proven to significantly reduce the risk of an environmental pollution incident at fuel storage installations and are today available in a wide choice of models and capacities - from 350 litres to 10,000 litres.
Whilst old-fashioned Single Skin Tanks are still acceptable at a very small number of domestic installations, a Bunded Tank is today a legal requirement in most areas at commercial, industrial and institutional installations, as well as at most new and replacement domestic oil storage installations. Single Skin Tanks don not incorporate any form of secondary containment and installing a Single Skin Tank where a Bunded Tank is legally required, is an offence. Even those few remaining installations where a Single Skin Tank remains acceptable, consideration should be given to fitting a Bunded Tank to protect against possible future environmental regulations.
