What is a collapsible fuel tank?
A. Collapsible Fuel Tanks made from polyurethane were originally developed by the US Military in the late 70’s. They were developed to provide temporary bulk storage facilities for fuels needed by expeditionary military forces. Collapsible Fuel Tanks come in a variety of sizes and are available in Canada from 500 to 125,000 Liters. Collapsible Fuel Tanks are very easy to transport because they fold down into a small size, this makes them very economical to ship into remote areas where access to transportation is limited and expensive. Collapsible Fuel Tanks are designed to be used for temporary storage and have an operational life span of approximately 5-10 years depending on the number of times they are moved. Collapsible Fuel Tanks are made from different types of polyurethane fabrics. The design and fabric of collapsible fuel tank will vary depending on the location of use and fuel stored.
