The customer asked us to produce a collapsible tank for fuel transport, that could fit inside an aircraft. We were already an expert manufacturer of collapsible fuel storage tanks that sit on the ground, but this new tank could be subjected to forces acting during air transportation. It had to be able to withstand any maneuver thrown at it with a design that complied with aircraft technical specifications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter we overcame a number of engineering hurdles, we officially launched the BATT in 2011. We delivered the first tanks to the very client who had initially suggested the product. From there, it wasn’t long before word of the new tank’s capabilities spread amongst air carriers in Canada’s north and, with Transport Canada approval, many quickly purchased the BATT, installed it and had it airborne all over the country.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThanks to the stunningly fast adoption by other carriers around the globe, today, BATTs are in use across five continents including North and South America, Asia, Africa and Europe. From single Otter aircraft to the much larger Boeing 737, the BATT is now available in over 20 different sizes with more being developed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"\u003eInnovation Excellence\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe BATT lets remote operators carry bulk fuel in to their sites. After being emptied, the collapsible tank can be rolled up so that other cargo can be hauled back out. This generates substantial savings in fuel hauling costs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRecently, SEI unveiled its new Aviation Pump Cart as a teammate to the BATT. Designed for remote airport locations, the Aviation Pump Cart allows one person to easily move the pump and its hoses over rough terrain to refill an aircraft quickly from a portable fuel tank or directly from the BATT.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe BATT has won four awards to date — an international outstanding achievement award (technical category), an \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/specialtyfabricsreview.com\/2012\/05\/01\/ifai-canada-honours-program-2012-winners-exemplify-quality-craftsmanship\/\"\u003ehonours program award\u003c\/a\u003e (industrial applications category) and a \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.cme-mec.ca\/?action=show\u0026amp;lid=JCKNC-E742G-1W6JA\u0026amp;comaction=show\u0026amp;cid=ZVUSZ-T3UHE-FFKL3\"\u003eregional and national award\u003c\/a\u003e for innovative new technology.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"\u003eInnovation Excellence Licensed in Canada and the United States\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the past, only fuel drums were allowed to transport fuel without special permits. We are proud to be the first company to receive a Transportation of Dangerous Goods Equivalency Certificate (SA 10638) from Transport Canada. Because of this Certificate, flight operators can use the BATT for fuel transport without special permits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis certificate states that the BATT is limited to supplying fuel to areas with remote access or where other transportation options are not readily available or practical. The fuel must be in a flexible tank that meets all the specifications of the BATT as manufactured by SEI Industries.
