All fuelling depots are exposed to the elements and wet weather can lead to the flooding of drainage systems, which, in turn can cause severe disruption to commercial fleets. Additionally, the accumulation of oil, silt, debris and other contaminants within an interceptor increases the risk of flooding along with the risk of pollutants contaminating the sewerage system or watercourse.
Depots with vehicle washing facilities also see drainage systems requiring regular maintenance.
Europump’s drainage and interceptor maintenance and cleaning services through sister company Eurotank Environmental eliminate the build-up of contaminants and debris to significantly reduce the risk of flooding.
Any waste removed from the cleaning process is disposed of in a compliant manner using fully licensed disposal facilities and ensuring that all duty-of-care obligations are met.
