Flat Propane Tank Technology

FPT® fuel storage technology provided solutions to users of cleaner-burning propane LPG fuel by allowing more fuel to be stored on the vehicle while reducing overall tank weight and increasing cargo storage area.
These tanks are designed to improve driving range, one of the key issues facing the emerging alternative-fuel market.
The space available for fuel storage on a typical propane LPG powered vehicle is traditionally the rectangular-shaped envelope normally occupied by a gasoline tank. Propane LPG has historically been stored in heavy cylinders, which due to their round shape, do not package very efficiently, fuel capacity is low, and driving range is compromised.
