Today marks the 23rd Anniversary of Fuel Storage Solutions
Published 1st April 2025
A business anniversary is a great opportunity for reflection and a look back at how far we’ve come in what seems like such a short space of time.
From humble beginnings in 2002 when company founders, Jonathan and Katharine Barnett, operated the business from their back bedroom, to establishing ourselves as the UK’s leading provider of fuel services, systems and solutions.
We remain a fiercely proud Yorkshire-based family run business with family values, always putting our people and our community first.
We’re an award-winning OFTEC registered provider of complete commercial and industrial fuel storage solutions and one of our proudest moments was being awarded the King’s Award for Enterprise in the Innovation category in 2023. This was a real team effort to design, patent and bring to market our unique APIApipe™ fully bunded pipework system.
As a one-stop-shop for fuel services much of our growth has come from clients who value our expertise, innovation, customer service and the added value that we deliver. Our highly trained Engineering Team covers the length and breadth of the UK and is on hand 24-7 should an emergency arise, so you are never alone.
Above all ‘Quality is at the heart of everything that we do’, and perhaps this is what we consider the most important factor as we look to achieve our ambitious growth plans. Here’s to the next 23 years!
Katharine sums it all up perfectly:
“Working with such amazing people over the last 23 years has been an absolute privilege. We have all achieved things beyond my wildest dreams. To have created a business that has supported so many families over the years and which has given opportunities for personal development (mine and others) is the cherry on the cake.
Thank you to everyone who has made FSS the place it is. In tough times and in good we are a family and after a period of changes over the last few months, we are emerging as an even stronger team with more potential. Here’s to the next chapter”.
