Onion tanks are a perfect solution for temporary liquid

What is an Onion Tank?

An onion tanks is a self erecting, self supporting, easily relocatable liquid storage tank made from a variety of fabrics like reinforced PVC. They are distinctive by the central foam filled collar that will rise as the tank is filled. The unique design of the onion tank means that they have a very quick setup time (typically 1 or 2 people can have a unit ready to go in about 5 or 10 mins).

Onion tanks are a perfect solution for temporary liquid or chemical storage and where rapid deployment is required. They are also designed for ongoing use and an onion tank will, when properly maintained offer a long service life.

Onion tanks suitable for a variety of applications containing liquid from 1,000 litres to 30,000 litres. Since no two applications are the same, they are manufactured from a wide range of scrim reinforced materials.

What is scrim?

Scrim is the reinforced layer that is sandwiched between the water proof upper and lower coatings that gives the material the ability to withstand the great tensile loads applied to the onion tank when is full and in use.

Some of the applications where Onion Tanks may be used are;

• remote site water supply (such as drilling and exploration operations)
• bushfire fighting water tanks in remote locations (particularly as a water station for helicopter water buckets where they are filled from a shallower source)
• temporary water storage that easily fits on the back of a ute or truck when packed (e.g. for swimming pool maintenance)
• temporary farm and rural water tanks that can be shifted as and when required
• spill containment particularly where fast deployment and filling of a tank are critical

Onion tanks are also called the following:

• Collar tank
