At its production site, this manufacturer of handling equipment was looking for a solution to modernize its fluid storage and ensure regulatory compliance for a site classified under ICPE regulations.
Hydraulic oils, engine oils, fuels—these products are essential for the operation of the production plant and for commissioning equipment leaving the factory. Until now, these fluids had been stored in outdated outdoor tanks that no longer met current requirements.
BLOCALPS’ solution: a tailor-made multi-fluid EUROBOX system
To meet these needs, BLOCALPS, an expert in containerized fuel and industrial fluid storage solutions, designed and deployed a customized installation in collaboration with its partner AIP.
The project resulted in the installation of two EUROBOX-type storage stations, enabling multiple fluids to be stored within a single container while ensuring product separation and controlled flow management.
The first station, with a capacity of 20 m³, includes four separate compartments dedicated to diesel, engine oil, bio-oil, and transmission oil. The second, with a capacity of 70 m³, is configured with two compartments for storing hydraulic oil and non-road diesel (GNR).
A design tailored to ICPE requirements and fire safety
As an ICPE-classified site, the facility must comply with strict safety and environmental protection regulations.
In addition, the solution had to be integrated into an existing space without disrupting site operations.
Finally, the requirement for a 2-hour fire-rated container was a key point in the specifications.
With full expertise in fluid engineering and complete capabilities to integrate industrial processes into containers, BLOCALPS designed customized containerized stations featuring:
Unlike the previous tanks, critical components are housed within a closed, fire-rated module, and a secured cabin with a lockable curtain provides access to the core fluid circulation system.
A station designed for industrial operations
Access to equipment inside the container has also been optimized, with the integration of a caged ladder, an access platform, and a manhole, ensuring safe and easy maintenance operations.
A multi-fluid storage solution with immediate benefits
The installation of these two EUROBOX stations was carried out quickly. The site now benefits from a secure multi-fluid storage solution, fully compliant with ICPE requirements and adapted to its space constraints. Centralizing products within custom-designed containers also improves site organization and reduces handling operations.
Beyond compliance, this installation enhances equipment durability, protects stored products, and improves overall operational control.
