A 5000 litre bunded oil tank is designed for sites that need substantial fuel storage and fewer compromises on capacity. It is well suited to larger properties, agricultural settings and commercial premises where keeping a dependable supply on site can make planning easier and reduce the need for frequent refilling. The bunded construction gives you secondary containment around the main fuel tank, helping to keep stored fuel contained if the inner tank leaks.
All our 5000 litre tanks are bunded, meaning they feature a dual-layer construction where the outer tank acts as a failsafe, capable of holding 110% of the inner tank's contents. The bunded design is a legal requirement for all tanks over 2,500 litres in the UK, ensuring your installation meets OFTEC standards and current Oil Storage Regulations.
The range can include both plastic and steel choices, alongside different footprints and fittings. Features to look out for may include gauges, outlet kits, lockable access and fill point cabinets, depending on the tank. You can compare the wider bunded oil tank range if you want to weigh up capacity and material together.
A tank of this size needs careful thought around siting, access and the supporting base. You will also want to consider how delivery vehicles can reach the site and how the tank will work with your existing heating or fuel setup. For even greater storage, our 10000 litre bunded oil tanks give you another option to compare before you decide.
