Bunded Double-Skin Construction
The FTS1225BT uses a tank-within-a-tank design. The inner tank acts as the primary fuel storage vessel, while the outer tank provides a secondary containment area.
In the event of a leak or spill from the inner tank, the outer bund is designed to contain the surplus fuel. This provides an additional level of protection around the stored fuel and helps reduce the risk of fuel escaping beyond the tank.
High-Grade Polyethylene Construction
The FTS1225BT is manufactured from high-grade polyethylene and is British made. The material provides corrosion resistance, high impact strength and UV stabilisation, making the tank suitable for outdoor fuel storage applications.
The robust polyethylene construction also provides a low-maintenance alternative to traditional metal fuel storage tanks.
Applications
The FTS1225BT is designed for a wide range of fuel storage applications where a larger-capacity bunded tank is required.
Typical applications include:
- Domestic heating oil storage
- Agricultural fuel storage
- Farms
- Commercial premises
- Industrial applications
- Workshops and depots
- Diesel storage
- Heating oil and kerosene storage
The 1,225 litre capacity provides additional storage for sites with higher fuel requirements while the double-skinned construction provides secondary containment.
Delivery
The FTS1225BT is delivered on a standard kerbside basis, meaning the tank is delivered to the kerb and is not positioned further into the property.
The current delivery information states that tanks can be lowered to ground level to assist with unloading. HIAB delivery is also available by request at an additional cost where required.
Customers should ensure that suitable vehicle access is available and that the installation area and base are prepared before delivery.

Overseas orders
International orders are welcome. Payment is by IBAN / SWIFT / BIC, MoneyGram and letters of credit. We regret that credit cards are not accepted for international orders.
A purchase order is required; we will then create a pro-forma invoice, and tanks are ordered on clearance of funds.
If you require additional export documentation — for example a Certificate of Origin, or commercial invoices certified by the Chamber of Commerce — you must notify us before completion of your order, as we will have to invoice cost and admin charges to the order.
