Explore Our Bunded Storage Products

Select a configuration according to the number of IBC tanks, available site area, required access method and necessary containment capacity. Final product suitability must be confirmed against the properties of the liquid being stored and the regulations applicable at the installation location.

What Is a Bunded Storage Container?

A bunded storage container incorporates a secondary containment area beneath the main storage platform. If a tank, drum or container leaks, the sump is intended to retain the escaped liquid within the storage unit rather than allowing it to spread across the surrounding site.

The stored container is supported above the sump on a galvanised steel grating. This separates it from accumulated liquid and allows leaks to drain into the containment area below. The required sump capacity depends on the stored volume, liquid classification and regulations governing the project location.

Designed for IBC Tanks and Industrial Liquids

The range is suitable for applications involving IBC tanks, oils, lubricants and other compatible industrial liquids. Depending on the selected product, units may accommodate one, two or four IBC tanks and can be supplied with different access configurations.

Chemical compatibility must always be checked before use. The suitability of galvanised steel, seals, coatings and other components can vary according to the liquid’s chemical composition, concentration and storage temperature.

Key Features Across the Product Range

• Integrated secondary containment sumps
• Galvanised steel grated floors positioned above the sumps

• Passive ventilation for continuous airflow
• Lockable doors for controlled access
• Threshold-free entrances on selected IBC models
• Front, top or individually controlled access according to the model
• Flat-pack delivery for efficient transportation
• Demountable construction for assembly at the destination
• Multiple capacities for different site and storage requirements
• Exterior colour options subject to project requirements

Choosing the Correct Storage Configuration

Before selecting a product, confirm the container dimensions, total liquid volume, required sump capacity, handling method, available installation area and any restrictions related to the stored substance.

Efficient Flat-Pack Delivery

These liquid-storage units are supplied in flat-pack form, reducing their transport volume compared with fully assembled structures. This makes the system particularly practical for export orders, remote projects and locations where delivery access is restricted.

After arrival, the components are assembled on a prepared and level foundation. Installation must be completed by competent personnel using the appropriate tools, lifting equipment and manufacturer’s assembly instructions.

Suitable Applications

• Manufacturing and industrial facilities
• Oil, lubricant and maintenance-material storage
• Agricultural and farm operations
• Construction and infrastructure projects
• Workshops and maintenance compounds
• Warehouses and distribution centres
• Utilities and energy projects
• Remote and temporary operational sites

Exterior Colour Options

Exterior finishes may be selected to match project branding, operational requirements or the surrounding facility. Available colours may include:

• RAL 9005 – Jet Black
• RAL 7021 – Black Grey
• RAL 7016 – Anthracite Grey
• RAL 5011 – Steel Blue
• RAL 3020 – Traffic Red
• RAL 1015 – Light Ivory
• RAL 6005 – Moss Green
• RAL 6018 – Yellow Green
• RAL 5010 – Gentian Blue
• RAL 9002 – Grey White
• RAL 1028 – Melon Yellow
• RAL 7040 – Window Grey

Colour availability should be confirmed when requesting a quotation, as production quantities and lead times may vary by finish.

Manufactured and Exported Worldwide

Self Storage Container is a specialised product platform by Prefabex, manufacturing flat-pack storage systems for commercial, industrial and project-based applications. Our production capabilities support individual units and coordinated multi-unit orders for international customers.

Flat-pack delivery helps optimise container loading and international shipping, while the modular design supports efficient assembly at the destination. Our team can assist with product selection, quantities, colour requirements and shipping coordination according to the project location.

Information Required for a Quotation

To help us recommend the appropriate storage solution, please provide:

• The type and classification of the liquid being stored
• The number, dimensions and capacity of the IBC tanks or containers
• The required containment or sump capacity
• The preferred access and loading method
• The required number of storage units
• The installation and delivery location
• The preferred exterior colour
• Any applicable project or regulatory specifications

Important Safety Considerations

Product suitability must be evaluated for the specific substance and intended application. The customer is responsible for confirming chemical compatibility, containment capacity, ventilation, fire separation, drainage, environmental protection and other requirements imposed by local authorities.

Flammable, corrosive, reactive or otherwise hazardous materials may require specialised construction, certified equipment or additional protective measures. Substances that could react dangerously if mixed must not be placed within a shared containment system.

Two-tier units require suitable mechanical handling equipment and verified platform load capacity. The installation base must be level, stable and capable of supporting the fully loaded storage system.
