A wide variety of industries benefit from using bunded fuel tanks. Take a look at how they are used within these different industries, and why they are so important for fleet managers.
What Are Bunded Fuel Tanks?
A bunded tank has an outer protective layer, used to protect the inner tank which stores the fuel. It is this design which results in bunded fuel tanks being one of the safest ways to store fuel. As the outer layer is designed to hold 110% of the inner tanks contents, it provides an additional safeguard if any spillages occur.
Agricultural Industry
Bunded fuel tanks are an essential asset within the agricultural industry, providing a huge array of beneficial factors. Being a demanding and labour-intensive industry, agriculture consists of livestock and produce which requires a large storage tank for food, water and heavy machinery.
As this machinery relies heavily on fuel, bunded fuel tanks are the ideal option. Due to their secure and safe design, they ensure the prevention and protection of accidents. This reduced risk avoids any damage to the environment, livestock and produce.
Construction Industry
