Thermally insulated, ballistic protection, for above-ground fuel storage
FIREGUARD® is a UL 2085 above-ground fuel storage tank that has been certified by the steel tank institute and backed by its 30-year warranty. These tanks offer significantly greater protection over the standard double wall UL 142 (Flameshield). Envirosafe™ UL 2085 above ground tanks have a thick gauge steel inner tank insulated by 3 to 6″ of lightweight concrete and then additionally protected by a thick gauge steel outer tank.

How we build our UL 2085 | Fireguard® tanks
This is an image of the Envirosafe | UL2085 above ground fuel tank for most fuel types. What you see here is the inner primary tank and the out wall of the secondary tank before the outer heads are welded on. Once the outer heads are in place the 6″ space between the inner and outer tank will be filled with lightweight concrete.
