Posted By Richard Hall Can anyone advise features/standards I should look for in respect of small (5 litre) containers for storing petrol that will be used to refill lawnmowers, etc? How can risk from static electricity igniting the petrol during decanting from the container to the lawnmower be reasonably controlled?

Posted By The toecap Also consider the storeage methods. If the container isn't airtight and the vapours escape you may create a confined space or dangerus atmosphere
