How custom fuel tanks could benefit your business
Fuel expenses can take a big bite out of your budget, especially if your business relies on transportation or heavy machinery. If you’re a business owner or operator, then you’ll be familiar with the feeling of wanting to keep a tight lid on operational costs. After all, who doesn’t want to save money? That’s where Durotank comes into play. We specialise in designing custom fuel tanks built to suit your operational needs.
Why consider custom fuel tanks?
Increased efficiency and productivity
One of the standout benefits of custom made fuel tanks is their ability to streamline operations. By designing a tank that fits your business’ unique fuel needs, you can reduce the frequency of refuelling and minimise downtime. Plus, when you integrate these tanks with advanced fuel management systems, you gain better control and visibility over your fuel usage, meaning you’re less likely to face unexpected disruptions and can keep your business running smoothly.
Cost savings
If you are looking to cut costs? A custom tank may do the trick. Because they allow you to store fuel in bulk, these tanks will enable you to purchase fuel at a lower cost and stock up when prices are low. Additionally, having fuel on-site is a savvy way to reduce the need for frequent deliveries, cutting down transportation costs and simplifying logistics. This combination of bulk buying and fewer deliveries can lead to significant savings in the long run.
Utilise space well
A custom diesel tank or custom tank for other fuel types can be designed to fit your space, the way you like it. This flexibility means you can use your space more effectively, turning areas that might have gone unused into valuable storage for your fuel.
Staying compliant and safe
Navigating regulations is essential for avoiding fines and keeping operations smooth. Durotank’s custom fuel tanks are built to comply with all Australian local and national regulations, giving you peace of mind. Our tanks can be fitted with advanced safety features like leak detection, spill containment, and overfill prevention. These safety measures not only protect the environment but also ensure the integrity of your storage system.
Long-lasting durability
The lifespan of a fuel tank depends largely on the materials and construction quality. At Durotank, we use high-quality materials that are specifically chosen based on the type of fuel being stored. This ensures that your tank is durable and resistant to corrosion, which means fewer replacements and repairs down the line. Investing in a custom tank is a smart move for long-term reliability and cost savings.
Versatility and customisation
Custom made fuel tanks offer great versatility, allowing you to design a tank with multiple compartments to store different types of fuel or integrate it with existing fuel management and filtration systems. So, whether you’re after a custom diesel tank, custom poly fuel tanks, or other specific features, Durotank can help provide the perfect solution for your needs. Our advanced level of customisation ensures that your tank not only meets all your operational needs but also fits seamlessly into your existing setup.
Protecting the environment
Another great benefit of a customised tank is that it can be designed to include features that help prevent spills and manage waste. Improved fuel management also means more efficient use of fuel and less environmental impact. By making this investment means you are contributing to a greener future.

My experience with Durotank was exceptional from start to completion.
Emily was patient with us from the start - we took a while to make our decision, but she was always ready to help. She proactively addressed all enquiries and offered comprehensive support. No pressure, just good service.
Furthermore, Durotank was highly accommodating when we requested custom signage. It turned out great and looked fantastic.
I highly recommend Durotank to any organisation seeking a seamless, efficient, and thoroughly professional supplier for diesel tank requirements.
Joe Valesini - AUS Inds Customer Relationship Manager Motion
We had a great experience working with Durotank on our order for a 2,400L water cart trailer, set up for firefighting and tree watering. Their team was responsive throughout the process and delivered exactly what we needed on schedule, despite a very tight timeframe. The build quality is excellent - it’s clear a lot of care and expertise went into the manufacturing. We also value being able to support an Australian-made company and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Durotank for both their product quality and service.
Joel Courtney – APMS Operations
We considered many other brands of diesel tank but quickly settled on Durotank - they ticked all the boxes. An Australian-made, self bunded quality tank with the ability to load and transport on-site whilst full is a winner.
The team communicated professionally with us regarding modifications and build timing. We will certainly use Durotank again and would confidently recommend them to others.
Andrew Reeves, Ethtec
We had a great experience working with Durotank in purchasing our service trailer, from the enquiry stage to the delivery date the Durotank team were pleasant and very professional. Emily from the sales team answered any and all questions we had about specs and options, working with us to meet expectations and budget limitations. The production team kept us well informed of build schedule and approximate delivery dates. Overall we highly recommend the Durotank team if your looking for a service trailer, value for money is second to none and the quality is top notch.
Aaron Asquith - Leading Hand - Rental Komatsu Australia, Truganina Branch VIC
We purchased Durotank’s 2400 Litre poly water trailer with fire-fighter pump and hose reel, plus optional dribble bar and batter sprays attached.
Our property, Duxton Farm, borders the Kakadu National Park in the Northern Territory. Because of this, early season burning is extremely important to prevent uncontrollable bushfires later in the dry season. The trailer has been an invaluable asset to fire control – always full and ready to go when the call comes.
We’ve found it to be well balanced, empty or full, with the baffle ball system effectively controlling surge. We have had no issues with set-up, towing it with either a Landcruiser or Hilux.
Overall, we’re extremely happy with our purchase and the support from the Durotank team. We’ll be back.
Bruce Connolly, Northern Regional Manager, Duxton Farms
I purchased a Poly Tank Fuel Trailer from DUROTANK in April 2018. DUROTANK builds one of the best fuel trailers I have ever used. The build quality, engineering and attention to detail is unreal. The fuel trailer is rock solid, it tracks extremely well full of fuel at 100km/hr and its road worthy. All of the fittings are hoses are high quality hydraulic hose and crimped fittings so there are no leaks. The Durotank team is very easy to deal with and more than happy to help with any enquiries. The staff are friendly and it is a pleasure to do business with them. I’d buy another one in a heartbeat, that’s for sure
Ben Harris – AB Contract Farming
The Duro Cubes are going extremely well! My guys are very happy with them. Having them already saved us on oil transport on at least 2 occasions so far and has also allowed us to restructure our oil work days and use out of hours oil deliveries to make more efficient use of the time on site.

The fuel trailer I purchased from DUROTANK is well designed to withstand the harsh mining environment I work in, with no compromise to efficient and reliable fast fuel delivery
Brad Black – Hardrock Blasting Services

Nick Dunlop – Kelton Rentals
As a business owner I would highly recommend DUROTANK to any person who is serious about saving money, purchasing and storing their own fuel in bulk, particularly in today’s challenging economic times. DUROTANK supplied us an excellent quality Australian made fuel tank built to the specs that suited out business. Our staff love how easy it is to use and how much time it saves refuelling each week. We purchased the Smartfill System with it and its definitely a worthwhile investment both for use and fuel management. The aftersales service from DUROTANK has been outstanding.
Tony Grace – Lachlan Valley
The supply process from quotation to order placement, being kept informed of manufacturing process and delivery date and final delivery was seamless. I really appreciated the proactive approach to driving a positive Customer Experience. I couldn’t fault the product or service at all.
Peter – Meadows Family Restaurants
All our fuel trailers and on site tanks are supplied by Durotank which are built with strength and quality and always delivered on time, helpful and friendly staff, won’t get better.
