Bund Relining

Aquasentry offers a bund inspection, maintenance and relining service to ensure your facility complies with legislation.

The Control of Pollution (oil storage) Regulations 2001 stipulate that an oil-tight secondary containment system, such as a bund, must have the capacity and integrity to contain a leak should one occur.

PPG2 states bunds must be protected with a lining to make it impermeable to oil and water, and there should be no direct outlet. The secondary containment system must provide storage of at least 110% of the tanks maximum capacity.

To ensure compliance it is essential that bunds are inspected regularly and that any defects identified in the bund wall or lining are repaired promptly. It is imperative that any draw-off or fill pipes that pass through the bund wall are adequately sealed, and are regularly emptied and cleaned to maintain the bund capacity.

Aquasentry offers a full range of bund maintenance packages, which include:
• Inspection and cleaning
• Surface decontamination
• Bund wall and substrate repairs
• Bund wall and substrate preparation
• Bund specific sealing and coating systems
