UK Bunded Fuel Tanks

IBC Stores

Secure your bulk liquids and ensure full environmental compliance with our heavy-duty bunded IBC stores. Purpose-built for the safe outdoor storage of chemicals, oils, and other containerised liquids, our bunded storage units maximise site space while keeping your assets accessible and organised. We manufacture everything from compact 2-IBC stores to large-scale 24-IBC chemical storage warehouses, tailored to your exact operational needs and built in the UK to exceed all safety regulations

Storing IBCs properly isn't just about compliance – it's about efficiency. Our bunded IBC stores transform cluttered yards into organised, safe storage areas where every container is accessible, protected, and legally compliant.

Each IBC store features 110% bunded capacity as standard, preventing environmental contamination if a container fails or spills. With galvanised steel flooring, forklift access, and optional weather protection, these units work as hard as you do. Manufactured in our Lancashire facility to BS 799-5 standards, they're built to last decades, not years.

Why Proper IBC Storage Matters

The Real Cost of Poor IBC Storage

Stacking IBCs on pallets wastes space and risks spillage. One leaked IBC can mean:

  • Thousands in Environment Agency fines
  • Site shutdown during cleanup
  • Contaminated product losses
  • Insurance complications

Our bunded stores eliminate these risks while making your IBCs easier to access and manage.

Frequently Asked Questions

Uncovered stores cost less and provide easier forklift access. Covered stores protect IBCs from UV degradation and rainwater accumulation on top of containers. Choose covered for long-term storage or weather-sensitive products.

Yes, if they're compatible. For incompatible chemicals, we build segregated stores with separate bunds. Common example: AdBlue and diesel in same store but different sections.

Grid floors lift out in sections. Most spills can be absorbed with granules through the grid. Annual deep cleaning recommended - we can provide maintenance guidance.

Usually not, as they're considered temporary structures. However, stores over 30m² or in sensitive locations may need permission. We advise checking with your local authority.

Level concrete minimum 150mm thick. Slight fall (1:100) aids drainage. We provide detailed base specifications with every quote.
