OPW Fueling Components Introduces EDGE 1 Single-Wall Spill Container

Cincinnati, OH—OPW Fueling Components, the global leader in commercial and retail fueling equipment, is proud to announce the latest advancement in its line of spill-containment products with the introduction of the new EDGE 1 Single-Wall Spill Container.

While the new EDGE 1 is among the most durable single-wall spill containers available in the petroleum market today, it offers much more to fuel marketers since it is also upgradeable to a double-wall spill container without breaking concrete.

In addition to its double-wall upgradeability, the design of the EDGE 1 enables its spill bucket and snow-plow ring to be replaced aboveground, also without breaking concrete.

The industry will get its first glimpse of the new EDGE 1 at the NACS/PEI Show in Chicago on Oct. 4-7 at OPW’s booth No. 5440.

"At OPW, we always listen to our customer’s needs before designing a new product, said Aldo Sucaldito, Product Manager for OPW Environmental Systems.

"With double-wall containment being increasingly mandated across the country, our customers need a cost-effective way to upgrade their single wall spill-containment systems to comply with these new requirements, while also providing a higher level of protection, lower installation costs and ease of maintenance," Sacaldito noted.

"The new EDGE 1 provides all of that and more to our customers."

The EDGE 1 Single-Wall Spill Container provides the lowest overall cost of ownership of any single-wall spill bucket.

This unique spill container comes equipped with numerous design features and benefits such as: • Single-wall to double-wall upgradeable bucket design eliminates need to break concrete to upgrade to a double-wall spill bucket.

• Roto-molded technology provides for thicker, more robust bellows.

• Both the spill bucket and the snow-plow ring can be easily replaced from above ground without breaking concrete.

• Thread-on bucket design ensures leak-free integrity, especially in the event of ground movement.

• Four convenient anchoring ears provide for better anchoring and longevity.

• Corrosion-resistant polyethylene skirt provides increased rigidity and superior reliability over corrosive metallic skirts.

• Use of seals on spill bucket eliminates need for messy sealants and reduces service time and costs.

• Dimensionally equivalent in height (16.5") to existing single-wall buckets–allowing the use of the same riser pipe and eliminating the need to make height adjustments.

When compared with competitive units, the EDGE 1 Single-Wall Spill Container offers superior reliability and performance, as well as time and labor savings, making the EDGE 1 the true next generation of single-wall spill containment.
