Fuel Tank Bunds
Under the control of Pollution (Oil Storage) Regulations 2001 there are requirements for operators and owners to provide safer and more environmentally friendly fuel storage. All commercial storage facilities in excess of 200 litres capacity must have a ‘second containment’ capable of holding at least 110% of the maximum tank capacity.
Shenton Group offers fully compliant compact bunds for all our generators that are complete with fork truck pockets for easy location. Cleverly designed rain covers complete an attractive and functional package that meets and exceeds the legal requirement.
