Making a commitment to corporate values in 2010, the management team conducted some strategic planning sessions and developed a formal Mission, Vision & Values statement for Equipment World. “We started by analyzing how we had been operating over the years and what we felt were integral aspects of our business and how each individual conducts themselves on a daily basis,” says Heather Syvitski, Corporate Marketing Director. “We wanted to create a visual that depicted our core values and incorporated our Customers, Employees, Suppliers and the Communities in which we live. We came up with our ‘Circle of Commitment’ that encompasses Respect, Integrity, Responsibility and Innovation.” Equipment World has many core values built into each of these statements and they feel it will be the driving force of everything they do for years to come.
From construction sites to disaster recovery zones, keeping vital equipment running demands a consistent, secure source of energy. This means storing fuel that’s ready at the precise point it’s needed. Western Global manufactures transportable tanks that can be towed, craned or forklifted filled with fuel – and larger, stationary units that eliminate downtime on larger and longer-term projects.
Onsite fuel storage has always been their speciality because they understand your projects cannot operate without them. All onsite equipment needs fuel and waiting for fuel deliveries to wet hose equipment can impact the time construction equipment is out of use and increases the downtime of onsite labor. Western Global jobsite fuel tanks are available from 250 gallons to containers of 19,000 gallons – the larger capacity fuel tanks significantly reduce the amount of fuel deliveries. They offer both stationary, transportable and mobile onsite fuel storage solutions. All complete packages include pumps and accessories.
In an industry under pressure from supply chain shortages make sure that fuel is not one of your headaches. Cubed fuel tanks bring with them a reduced footprint and provide peace of mind by offering secure onsite fuel storage 24/7.
Understandably ground contamination is a major concern for many construction companies utilizing onsite fuel tanks, as well as the EPA. All Western Global tanks are double walled, giving you peace of mind that there will be no leakage and contamination. Their onsite fuel tanks protect against onsite ground contamination, helping you deliver on your environmental commitment.
By engineering double walled units housing pump fittings and connections within an exterior wall, their onsite cube tanks save the cost of cleaning pans and secondary containment to prevent contamination or rainwater accumulation.
At Western Global, they understand the importance of being able to transport fuel safely onsite. Their onsite fuel storage solutions allow you to strike that balance between fuel demand and mobility. Without tying up capital in a full-size fuel truck, their mobile fuel tanks deliver the flexibility you need. A transportable fuel trailer is 90% cheaper to buy than a truck and can be towed by almost anything onsite.
Western Global’s DOT-approved trailer-mounted fuel tanks are ideal for moving fuel across large construction sites as required, even more remote locations. The TransCube mobile refueler gives you the agility needed in demanding situations.
Western Global transportable construction fuel tanks like their TransCube Global incorporate forklift pockets for ease of transportation, as well as corner brackets for offloading.
