Pillow tanks, known for their high flexibility and resemblance to balloons, serve as convenient substitutes or temporary storage solutions when primary tanks are unavailable. They feature quick assembly, filling, and relocation capabilities for maximum convenience.
Bladders, commonly used as liners in existing tank structures, are custom-made by Tanks Liners by American Tanks to fit various containment systems regardless of size or specifications.
Liquid Storage Bladder
Pillow tanks are stand-alone structures designed for storing water, chemicals, and various industrial liquids, all contained within a sleek, pillow-shaped design. Made from sturdy PVC material, they demonstrate outstanding resistance to abrasion and can be transported, assembled, and disassembled more efficiently compared to other tank designs.

Essential Steps for Secondary Containment Compliance with Pillow Tanks
Considering that portability is the primary factor influencing the purchase of a pillow tank from Tanks Liners by American Tanks, most units are frequently relocated throughout their lifespan. Depending on the environmental conditions of assembly locations, secondary containment or emergency spillage solutions may be required.
Storing fuels and chemicals in any capacity raises the risk of accidental spills or contamination of nearby humans, animals, waterways, and other potentially impacted environments.
We recommend consulting local authorities or governmental bodies regarding regulations concerning commercial or industrial liquid storage.
In general, pillow tanks will necessitate secondary containment arrangements in the following scenarios:
- Significant quantities of oils and fuels are stored.
- Oils and fuels are commonly utilized, discharged, or transported.
- Oil and fuel are stored in close proximity, posing a potential threat to waterways in the event of a spill.
Safeguarding the Environment with Secondary Containment for Pillow Tanks
Because Tanks Liners by American Tanks are designed for portability, they’re often moved around. This mobility, however, requires special considerations to prevent environmental hazards in case of spills.
Storing any amount of fuel or chemicals in these tanks increases the risk of accidental spills, potentially contaminating nearby people, animals, waterways, and the environment.
To ensure compliance and environmental protection, we strongly recommend consulting your local authorities or government agencies about regulations for commercial or industrial liquid storage.
Here are some general situations where secondary containment is typically required for pillow tanks:
- The location stores a significant amount of oils and fuels.
- Oils and fuels are in constant use, requiring frequent handling and movement.
- Storing oil and fuel in such close proximity to waterways creates a serious environmental hazard.
When will You need a Storage Container?
Bladders are designed to function as liners within existing tank structures or other containment systems. Tanks Liners by American Tanks customizes bladder liners to fit the specific tank assets of your site.
Bladder liners often serve as secondary containment measures to improve the containment of sewage water, grey water, and other pollutants, helping to prevent leaks. Additionally, as a reinforcement measure, bladder liners can offer support to primary containment units during repair or maintenance periods.
Unlike pillow tanks, bladders lack inherent structural support and rely on the shape and space provided by another structure.
