Published: 11 March 2024

Adler and Allan, a leading provider of environmental services and solutions, is proud to announce it has received TÜV SÜD certification for its pioneering tank lining process designed to extend the life of ageing underground storage tanks (USTs) and prevent environmental incidents.

This innovative solution addresses a growing concern for businesses with metal and steel underground storage tanks that are nearing the end of their lifespan or may exhibit signs of potential leaks. Adler and Allan's lining process creates a new, multi-layered barrier inside the existing tank, effectively sealing any existing or potential leaks and preventing future contamination of the surrounding environment.

"At Adler and Allan, we are committed to developing sustainable and responsible solutions for our customers," says Andrew Clarke, Managing Director – Energy Division, Adler & Allan. "Our new tank lining process not only extends the lifespan of valuable assets, but also minimises environmental risks by preventing potential leaks and soil contamination."

The TÜV SÜD certification signifies that the lining system meets the stringent design requirements set out in the BS EN 13160 standard, ensuring the highest level of quality and integrity. Additionally, this unique and patent-protected construction boasts several key advantages for businesses:

Reduced installation time: Compared to other lining solutions, Adler and Allan's process takes approximately 40% less time to install, minimising downtime and disruptions for businesses.
Enhanced monitoring: Customers opting for the lining system can benefit from a comprehensive monitoring solution. This system allows for continuous tank assessment, providing valuable insights into its health and integrity. Furthermore, the monitoring system can be integrated with existing wet stock monitoring gauges and alarm systems, enabling immediate notification in the event of any potential breaches.
Extended service life: The innovative lining boasts a 10-year warranty, providing businesses with peace of mind and long-term protection for their assets.

"This TÜV SÜD certification is a testament to the effectiveness and safety of our innovative tank lining system," concludes Andrew. "We are confident that this solution will be invaluable for businesses seeking to extend the life of their underground storage tanks, ensure regulatory compliance, and minimise environmental risks."
