Cookson And Zinn (PTL) Limited products

With over 50 years of experience in tank design and manufacture we are one of the UK`s leading suppliers of aviation fuel storage tanks and systems. We can provide aviation fuel tanks and ancillary items for above ground or underground use, in horizontal, vertical or rectangular configurations. These are all made to the highest quality standards as demanded by the Ministry of Defence, Civil Aviation Authorities and other regulatory bodies. Capacity of tanks range from 1000 litres up to 200,000L.

The introduction of Biofuels has dramatically increased the incidence of microbial build up in underground storage tanks. This is largely due to the water content in these fuels collecting at the bottom of tanks providing a perfect environment for the bacteria to grow. The result is blocked filters and potentially fuel that is not within specification. Regular tank cleaning and special treatments can be used to minimize the problem, but these are all significant recurring costs, and can lead to the tanks being out of commission for significant periods.
