Why Choose Container Flexitank for Efficient Bulk Liquid Transport?
Container Flexitank have revolutionized bulk liquid transportation,offering cost-effective,efficient,and eco-friendly solutions compared to traditional methods like drums,IBC totes,and ISO tanks.
Cost Savings&Higher Efficiency
✅ Lower Transport Costs – Flexitanks can carry up to 30% more liquid than drums and 50% more than IBC totes,reducing shipping expenses.
✅ No Return Freight – Unlike ISO tanks, flexitanks are single-use (disposable models), eliminating the cost of returning empty containers.
✅ Minimal Packaging Costs – No need for additional drums or totes,cutting material and disposal costs.
Maximized Cargo Capacity
✅ Fits inside standard 20ft containers,making it easy to convert dry containers into bulk liquid transport units.
✅ Can hold between 16,000 and 24,000 liters per container,ensuring higher payload per trip.
✅ Reduces cargo loss with minimal residue left inside after discharge.
Safe&Contamination-Free Transport
✅ Multi-layered polyethylene (PE) with an outer polypropylene (PP) layer ensures high durability and resistance to leakage.
✅ Completely sealed system prevents contamination,making it ideal for food-grade and pharmaceutical liquids.
✅ FDA,EC,and Kosher certified options for wine,edible oils,fruit juices,and other sensitive liquids.
Quick&Easy Installation
✅ Fast setup – Can be installed in 30 to 60 minutes inside a standard container.
✅ No need for forklifts – Unlike drums and totes,flexitanks allow for gravity-based loading and unloading.
✅ Minimal labor requirements – Reduces handling time and operational complexity.
Eco-Friendly&Sustainable Solution
✅ Reduces Carbon Footprint–Less weight per unit means lower fuel consumption.
✅ Single-use but recyclable materials–Some flexitanks are made from biodegradable plastics, reducing environmental impact.
✅ Less Waste–No need for drums or intermediate bulk containers (IBCs), leading to less plastic and metal waste.
Reduced Handling&Cleaning Costs
Since many are single-use,no return or cleaning is needed.
Best Use Cases for Container Flexitanks
✅ Food & Beverage: Edible oils,fruit juice,wine,syrup,and coconut water.
✅ Pharmaceuticals: Liquid glucose,purified water,pharmaceutical ingredients.
✅ Industrial Liquids: Non-hazardous,chemicals,detergents,lubricants&paints.
✅ Agricultural Products:Fertilizers,glycerin,and other bulk liquids.

Yes! Food-grade flexitanks are FDA-approved,BPA-free,and Kosher & Halal certified,ensuring safe transport for consumable liquids.
Can flexitanks be used for hazardous liquids?
No,flexitanks are not suitable for hazardous or highly volatile liquids like fuels,chemicals,or acids.
What are the loading and unloading methods?
- Loading: Done through a valve on the flexitank using a pump or gravity feed.
- Unloading: Typically done via gravity discharge or pump-assisted systems.
How long does it take to fill or empty a flexitank?
The time depends on the liquid viscosity and pumping system but typically takes 30–60 minutes to fill or empty a 24,000-liter flexitank.
What is the difference between flexitanks and ISO tanks?
How do I prevent damage or leakage?
- Use only certified,high-quality flexitanks.
- Ensure the container is clean,dry,and free from sharp objects before installation.
- Do not overfill beyond recommended capacity.
- Use bulkheads for added stability.
