Flexitanks are ideal for bulk liquid transportation in ISO shipping containers or box reefer (refrigerated) trucks. These tanks are suitable for food grade materials, non-hazardous pharmaceuticals, chemical and industrial products. This simple solution allows materials to be cost effectively and efficiently shipped globally reducing the landed materials cost.
Flexitank & Reefer Information
We provide heavy duty, durable Flexitanks for multiple uses or light duty single trip tanks ("one trippers") suitable for various contact times. Steel Bulkheads weigh about 100 lbs each. They are required for 20' Flexitank container applications and are completely reusable. Disposable Bulkheads are available upon request. Our standard Flexitank designs allow for transportation of 25,000 - 9,000 liter (44000 pounds) volumes. Custom sizes and designs are available.
Our Reefer tanks are capable of being used in refrigerated box containers (reefers), allowing shippers to transport juices, juice concentrates, egg products, wine, etc at controlled temperatures.

As one can imagine, we have a vast variety of materials, sizes and configurations available. We recommend that Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) and trip duration (total contact time) be provided to ensure compatibility and most efficient use of materials. This data is kept in strictest confidence and is used only to provide sound advice and warranty to meet your needs.
Our tanks are located in the United States and through strategic partnerships can service your requirements globally.
Please Note: The recommended contact time is a guide only. It implies that, at that stage, some of the mechanical properties could start to change. All is depending on care, storage, weather conditions, etc. Many customers have successfully used materials, recommended for 90 days, for over 2 years without problems.
NOTE: If liquid is listed as hazardous in the MSDS, Flexi-tanks are not an approved method for bulk shipments. See Material Compatibility Guide.
