Bespoke containment solutions

Site requirements can vary greatly. Our bespoke bund gate designs allows for comprehensive access to a liquid containment zone. From pedestrians to forklifts, our UK based design and manufacturing team can create entry solutions that match perfectly to a site’s needs.

Ensure Control of Pollution Oil Storage Regulations (2001) compliance

Ensure your businesses containment strategy complies with regulations. Our team is experienced in designing bund gate solutions that comply with UK spill legislation, including the Control of Pollution (Oil Storage) Regulations (2001) and Water Environment (Oil Storage) Regulations (2006).

Fire resistant for flammable liquids

Due to our bespoke nature, we’re able to create containment solutions for whatever the worst case scenario. We use a number of different sealing types from Nitrile rubber to Viton and have extra sealing guards for lasting fire protection at petrochemical or high risk sites.
