FIRE FIGHTING FOAM CONVERSION RETHOUGHT

Tanklux is a family owned and managed business established in 1966 and is run by the 2nd generation of the Bollaert family. With 13 employees from the Grand Duchy and the region, Tanklux offers storage and transshipment services for petroleum products in the port of Mertert.

In the course of converting fire fighting systems to fluorine-free foam agents, we use our expertise and provide our customers with the best possible support.


Together with the customer we work to develop sustainable solutions.


The challenging issue of PFAS cleaning often leads to the replacement of the storage container in stationary systems for economic reasons.
Purchasing new containers makes particular sense if the old ones cannot be cleaned properly or the WHG (laws on drinking water protection) or storage requirements are no longer met.

Tanklux chose an insulated and heatable stainless steel tank container as a storage tank, which we already filled in Hamburg with the performance foam agent vaPUREx® which is produced without PFAS.Through precise coordination between Tanklux, the freight forwarder and our team, a tight schedule was adhered to and the fire fighting system could be converted on time.
We often deliver the foam concentrates in tank trucks or in IBCs, which are then transferred to the already installed tank on site. By jointly developing needs-based solutions, we can support our customers quickly and easily in conversion projects such as Tanklux's.
