For capacity or multi-tank fuel storage, collapsible tanks can be placed in a fuel farm layout to create an economical and reliable bulk liquid storage area. Built from top quality, tough and durable materials, these tanks have been used to store fuel for mining applications, gas industries, farming and agricultural areas, aviation vehicles, and more.
Collapsible Tank Information
The collapsible tank, also known as the pillow tank or fuel bladder, is a flexible, quick deployment tank that has been used to store a wide range of liquids including diesel fuel, process water, brine water, and more. Often used to store potentially harmful materials, these tanks are built from high-qualitity materials to ensure that your fuel storage is secure.
These flexible fuel tanks can be constructed to almost any capacity up to 210,000 gallons. This has allowed the pillow tank to be used in both small agricultural fueling needs (500 to 1000 gallons) or large bulk fuel storage that includes several 25,000, 50,000, 100,000 or even 200,000 gallon tanks.
