Double-shell and single-shell tanks - what are the differences?


Tanks are an integral part of many industries, and their proper selection is crucial for the safety and efficiency of the work carried out. Two popular types are double-walled and single-walled tanks, which differ in construction and application.

Double-shell and single-shell tanks - what are the differences?

Single-shell tank


A single-shell tank with a capacity of 3500L with a built-in dispenser is an ideal solution for those looking to rent a tank to store large quantities of drinking water, rainwater, liquid fertilizers and other neutral liquids. Thanks to its high tightness and low weight, the tank is easy to transport and install, which makes it particularly attractive for short-term tank rental. The built-in dispenser ensures comfort of use, and the 230V power supply allows for trouble-free operation, which makes this tank a practical choice for companies requiring temporary storage of liquids.

Double-shell tank


Double-shell tanks consist of two layers: an outer one, acting as a shield, and an inner one, which is in direct contact with the stored substance. The main advantage of this design is increased safety, because in the event of any leaks or damage to the outer layer, the substances do not escape into the environment. Double-shell tanks are commonly used for storing toxic or chemically aggressive substances. At Ramirent, we have double-shell tanks available for rent in as many as 6 possible capacities, including those with a metal structure:
