KNOWLES TRANSPORT SAY GOODBYE TO SKIMMING: NO MORE FUEL SIPHONED AT ALL

Knowles Transport’s large scale logistics operation demands continuous investment in the very best technology available.

This is why the Cambridgeshire based company has fitted TISS’ TankSafe ‘Impregnable’ Fuel Security & Safety Device to solve concerns with fuel theft, specifically ‘skimming’, which refers to the practice of siphoning the top few inches of fuel, something that is possible with all basic anti-siphons but not the TankSafe ‘Impregnable’ Fuel Security Device.

David Butler, Knowles Transport’s Transport Manager, commented: “Having previously fitted cheaper ‘basic’ anti-siphons, I was disappointed to still see an average loss of 6 gallons of fuel per month on each Truck after fitting.  However, having now fitted the TankSafe ‘Impregnable’ I am delighted that we are now not having any fuel siphoned at all”.

Knowles Transport’s findings supports the recent independent testing conducted by Mi Technology, which demonstrated that it was impossible to siphon any fuel from the TankSafe ‘Impregnable’ in addition to proving that TISS’ TankSafe ‘Standard’ Anti-Siphon is the most effective basic anti-siphon available to prevent 3^rd party theft.

Charles Boucher, TISS’ Business Development Manager, expressed his satisfaction with adding Knowles Transport to TISS’ growing portfolio of customers: “TISS are proud that Knowles Transport, an established name in the Haulage Industry and another company featuring in Motor Transport’s Top 100 Haulier List has recognised the quality offered by the TankSafe range of devices.  I am confident this is the beginning of a long and fruitful relationship.”

Protecting their fuel is a must for every logistics company which wants to safeguard its profits. Addressing fuel theft, skimming and diesel spills is now possible thanks to one single cutting edge device, which is TISS TankSafe ‘Impregnable’. TISS’ customers’ satisfaction is the proof that there is always a recompense for investing in quality technology.

Iveco and TISS launch anti-siphon device for Daily and EcoDaily

Iveco has launched the first custom-built anti-siphon device for its Daily and EcoDaily light commercials in conjunction with long term partner TISS Security Systems.

The new product, TankSafe Daily, is based on TISS’ popular TankSafe Standard product for trucks, which has already established itself as the most effective basic fuel protection system available.  Independent tests conducted by Mi Technology, a major truck-testing organisation, have shown that TankSafe Standard is capable of offering 75 per cent more anti-siphoning protection than the nearest competing model.

TankSafe Daily features the same level of protection but has been re-engineered specifically for the Iveco light commercial vehicle range.  This follows requests from owners, which have been targeted by fuel thieves with increasing frequency.

TISS claims the device stands out on the market for its 100 per cent aluminium manufacture, which makes is resistant to corrosion and stronger than pressed steel variants offered by rivals.  It also features a solid, patent-pending ‘dome’ base, which is attack-proof and means that it is not possible to siphon any fuel from the tank with the TankSafe Daily Anti-siphon fitted.

The TankSafe Daily is currently available exclusively through the Iveco dealer network and can be retrofitted to existing models, or added as a dealer-fit accessory on new purchases.

TISS has supplied Iveco with fuel security devices for its truck range since 2006.  The initial UK supply agreement has been extended throughout the world.

ENGLISH TEAM PRIMED FOR SUCCESS IN SOUTH AFRICA

England’s footballers are not the only English team with high hopes for success in South Africa this summer.

TISS Security Systems are continuing to increase their global market share thanks to the considerable market penetration and excellent sales results currently being achieved in South Africa, where TISS have representatives based in the country’s 4 largest regions:  Johannesburg, Port Elizabeth, Cape Town and Durban.

Many large South African fleets have already chosen to protect their fuel with the TankSafe ‘Impregnable’ Fuel Security & Safety Device and TankSafe ‘Standard’ Anti-siphon.  Additionally, trials are ongoing with numerous other fleets.  The high interest levels again illustrate how serious the plague of fuel theft is for businesses all over the world.

Through their distributors, TISS have also sold TankSafe into Botswana and Mozambique, therefore highlighting the strategic importance of South Africa as a gateway into all of Southern Africa.  

Ryan Wholey, TISS’ Managing Director, commented: “We are thrilled with the progress we are making in the region.  We firmly believe that the South African market has the potential to become even bigger than the UK market in the next 12 months”.

ABOUT TANKSAFE:

The TankSafe ‘Impregnable’ is in fact the only Fuel Security & Safety Device which prevents siphoning, skimming and diesel spills.

The TankSafe ‘Standard’ is independently proven to be the most effective basic anti-siphon in preventing 3^rd party fuel theft, thanks to its patent-pending “Dome” base.

DON’T BE A VICTIM OF FUEL THEFT! FIT ‘TANKSAFE’ ANTI-SIPHONS.

The world’s leading anti-siphon provider, TISS Security Systems, has recently improved its TankSafe anti-siphons range, by adding the NEW, improved ‘TankSafe’ Standard anti-siphon to their product portfolio. 

The new ‘TankSafe’ Standard anti-siphon’s superiority to its predecessor is due to its unique, solid, patent-pending ‘dome’ base.  Attack proof and, sitting higher in the chamber, it adds 40% more siphoning protection than the previous TISS design and 75% more than TISS’ nearest competitor.  Additionally, it allows  tanks to be filled at a far quicker rate.  

Unlike other anti-siphon devices, all of the ‘Tanksafe’ anti-siphons  are manufactured from 100% aluminium, making the anti-siphons extremely robust and eliminating anypossibility of corrosion when in the fuel tank.   Besides preventing third party fuel theft, the new ‘Standard’ minimises fuel ‘skimming’ because of its short neck.

 The ‘TankSafe’ range also boasts a more advanced fuel security & safety device: the ‘Impregnable’, which completely prevents any fuel loss.  This is due to its unique ‘float valve’ which allows fuel to flow into the tank, but locks off once the tank is full, thereby protecting the fuel completely against siphoning, skimming and diesel spills.  By preventing any siphoning, the ‘Impregnable’ offers incredible financial benefits; however, its unique capability of preventing diesel spills offers huge benefits to both society and the environment.

An effective protection against fuel theft is becoming a necessity after rising fuel prices have precipitated a staggering increase in fuel theft, which has risen by 50% in the last year in some parts of the country.  With fuel prices remaining high and expected to rise, the need to protect fuel will remain at the forefront of Haulier’s minds.
