This 10ft x 8ft open mesh floor bunded store provides secure, compliant secondary containment for chemicals, oils and hazardous liquids. The raised galvanised mesh floor keeps stored drums and IBCs clear of any spillage, while the bund holds 110% of the largest container stored — meeting UK oil and chemical storage regulations. Cor-Ten steel construction, factory lockbox, and forklift pockets as standard. Nationwide UK delivery available.

Storing oil, chemicals, or other hazardous liquids on site means meeting strict UK secondary containment rules — and this 10ft x 8ft open mesh floor bunded store is built specifically for that job. Unlike a standard storage container, the mesh floor design keeps drums and IBCs raised clear of the bund itself, so any leak or spill drains straight down and away from stored materials rather than pooling around them.
Converted from a one-trip shipping container and finished in durable Cor-Ten steel, this bunded store is designed to sit outdoors long-term while keeping stored materials secure, dry, and compliant with current oil and chemical storage regulations.
– New – converted from a one-trip shipping container
-All Cor-Ten steel construction for long-term weather resistance

-Secondary containment (bund) sized to hold 110% of the largest container stored
-Exterior hinged double doors with two locking bars
-Factory-fitted lockbox for added security
-Forklift pockets for easy positioning and relocation
-3mm Durbar floor plate welded into the container base
-12 ventilation points for safe airflow around stored materials
-Optional 32A 3-pin electrical socket available
The open mesh floor is the key difference between this container and our flat floor or raised bunded store options. Rather than storing drums and IBCs directly on a solid bunded floor, the mesh design elevates containers above the bund — so spillages drain immediately away from stock, reducing the risk of contamination, corrosion, and prolonged contact with any leaked liquid. This makes it a particularly strong choice for sites storing multiple drums, IBCs, or containers where drainage and hygiene matter as much as containment.

UK oil storage regulations require secondary containment (bunding) for oil storage containers of 200 litres or more at commercial and industrial sites, with the bund sized to hold at least 110% of the largest container stored, or 25% of total storage capacity if larger. This bunded store is designed to help you meet those containment requirements on site. Always confirm the exact regulatory requirements for your specific site and substances with the Environment Agency or your local authority, as rules vary by material type, quantity, and location.
We deliver 10ft bunded stores nationwide. Before ordering, please check:
– Delivery vehicle access and level, firm ground for offloading
– Sufficient space for positioning near your storage or loading area
– Any site-specific containment or environmental permit requirements
What’s the difference between an open mesh floor and a flat floor bunded store?
An open mesh floor raises stored drums and IBCs above the bund itself, so any spillage drains away immediately rather than pooling around stock. A flat floor bunded store keeps containers directly on the bunded surface. Both meet secondary containment requirements — the mesh floor option is often preferred where drainage and hygiene are a priority.
How much does the bund need to hold to be compliant?
UK regulations require the bund to hold at least 110% of the capacity of the largest single container stored inside it, or 25% of the combined total capacity if that figure is greater. Full guidance is available on GOV.UK.
Can this container be used outdoors long-term?
Yes. The Cor-Ten steel construction is designed to withstand long-term outdoor exposure, making it suitable as a permanent or semi-permanent on-site storage solution.
Is a 10ft bunded store big enough, or should I consider a 20ft?
The 10ft size suits smaller volumes of drums or IBCs where site space is limited. For higher-volume chemical or oil storage, our 20ft x 8ft Open Mesh Floor Bunded Store offers significantly more capacity.
