Pillow tank 100 m³ 100,000 litres – agricultural liquid fertiliser storage — the right choice when the project is properly scoped
This pillow tank of 100 m³ (100,000 litres) answers a requirement for agricultural liquid fertiliser storage. It suits holdings storing nitrogen solution, liquid fertiliser or compatible feeds, needing a dependable reserve that installs quickly and fits the ground.
The point that changes everything
With liquid fertiliser, the real mistake is buying a volume without validating the liquid, the fittings and the draw-off.
Composition, concentration, storage conditions and the filling method are checked before the quotation is fixed.
What this tank actually solves
closed storage matched to the fertilising season
less permanent construction than a rigid tank
connections suited to farm filling and draw-off

Frequently asked questions before ordering
How much space does a 100 m³ pillow tank need?
The exact area depends on the format chosen and on the fittings. The base must be level, stable, free of anything that could puncture it, and accessible both for filling and for maintenance. Flocea confirms the usable dimensions before sign-off.
Can this tank be connected to a pump?
Yes, provided the outlets, valves and accessories are specified at the point of order. Tell us the flow rate you expect, so the installation is not undersized.
Does the tank arrive ready to install?
The tank is delivered folded, with the equipment listed in the quotation. Ground preparation, protection, external fittings and any pump must be planned according to the site.
Should I take this volume or the next size up?
If your need is seasonal, regulatory or awkward to replenish, allow a margin. The next size up avoids over-frequent refilling and secures your autonomy.
Next step
Torn between two volumes or two connection layouts?
Send us the application, the volume you have in mind, the liquid stored and the site constraints. Flocea checks the sizing before order or quotation.
