Flexitanks

There are a number of options available for bulk liquid transportation. Depending on the type of cargo and where it is being sourced from and transported to, any of these methods might prove to be a better option than the other. Selecting the right type of bulk liquid transportation can have a significant impact on the cost element of moving that consignment from point a to point b. In this article, we will look at four of the most common methods of bulk liquid transportation and which method is suitable for which scenarios. ISO tanks One of the most common methods of bulk liquid transportation is the ISO tank which is made from stainless steel material surrounded by protective layers that prevent contamination of the liquid by the metal. This method is used to transport both hazardous and non-hazardous liquids because the stainless steel is strong enough to resist puncturing and the spilling of any hazardous liquids.

If you need bulk liquid solutions, you want to be sure you can find a company you trust. How can you be sure you're going with the right company? You just need to ensure that you're asking the right questions. When considering a company, make sure you ask them the following questions. If they can answer them to your satisfaction, then you've found the right company for you. Can You Transport My Items On Time? As you're dealing with food grade liquids, you need them to be moved in a timely manner. To be food grade, they will have to have an expiration date. Moving them before you're unable to use or sell them is vital. Then there's food grade liquids that are time sensitive. Wine, for example, needs to be moved quickly so it can be bottled and sold at the right time of year.  When talking to a transport company, ensure that they're going to be available when you need them. Keep in mind that even the best companies may not be available when you n

Like any other liquid, wine needs to be transported in bulk from the supplier. Only then can it be bottled and shipped to stores, ready to be bought. There's a lot that needs to go into wine bulk liquid transport. Here's everything you need to know before shipping wine in bulk for the first time.  Certain Conditions Must Be Met First, it's important to know that wine needs to be shipped in certain conditions, to keep it at the best quality possible. There are several things that can affect the quality of your wine. First, there's the risk of contamination from containers. Depending on what containers you use for your wine, there is a small risk they won't be totally clean from their last use, which can contaminate wine. There are ways you can avoid this, as described below.  Temperature will also affect wine as it moves to it's new location. When planning a route to ship wine, the climate of the areas you'll pass through should be taken into ac

One of the more complex logistical challenges, particularly in global shopping, is the transportation of bulk liquids. To produce a winning blend of safe and efficient transport along with attractive shipping expenses and the ability to transport huge liquid volumes, you require a particular and special logistical solution, for instance, the flexitank system.  Traditionally, the ISO drum and tank have been the means of shipment. However, they have been costly for companies to buy, maintain, and recycle. Fortunately, flexitanks simplify the process of bulk liquid transportation by offering these benefits. Benefits of Flexitanks Decreased transportation expenses In comparison to a tank-container, you'll simply pay for one way freight of the container. There's no prerequisite to return the container and pay for it.  Cleaning There's no need to clean the tank after transportation because it's disposable. Low wastage The wastage proportio

The answer is delays all around. Because there is diminished bulk capacity availability, that means production is limited or delayed.  Most visible there are manufacturing  companies and pharmaceuticals. Though there certainly can be other explanations that might explain why, this may likely offer at least one plausible reason why retail supermarkets run out of items so quickly or why half-filled shelves seem to be the norm at retailers, or why one hears fairly regularly from restaurants something that used to be a taboo answer to a customer among restauranteurs - “we ran out”.  The fact could also explain why pharmacies seem to be running out of drugs and can only make partial refills at times. There are essentially five primary reasons why there is a limited bulk liquid transport capacity.  The first is that a system that was already there is growing fast.  The American Chemical Council predicts that the chemical industry will grow 34% over the next five years. A lot of mergers

A flexitank  is a bulk liquid container that is composed of multiple layers of flexible polyethylene . The container is intended to carry volumes of up to 26,000. But units of smaller volumes are also available for use in small containers. The larger volume size units are intended to be used with the sea or rail containers and smaller containers where they are placed in the container and filled up with liquid. So the advantage of flexitank s is that it makes use of an already existing container solution that is intended to carry dry goods and converts it into a liquid carrier. Here are some of the advantages of flexitank s One-way usage Because of the low cost of producing a flexitank , it is logistically cheaper to use it without expecting it to return back to the sender. This is a cheaper option than using standard shipping containers or custom-made bulk liquid transporting solutions like tankers. The conventional solutions would require two-way transportat

A flexitank is a bulk liquid storage container made out of synthetic materials. The difference between this type of container and a conventional containers is its flexibility. Traditional containers have a rigid structure but in the case of flexitank this is not the case. Think of a flexitank like a bag you can carry liquids in. The bag does not have a rigid structure but can still contain liquids without letting it pour outwards. The convenience of the flexible structure of the flexitank means that it can be put in conventional containers such as ocean containers and filled up with liquids inside them. Flexitanks allow you to leverage the storage equipment that you already have and use it to transport and store large volumes of non-hazardous liquids. Even in conventional transport like trucks. After setting up a rigid container on the trailer a flexitank can be placed in the trailer so that container and simply filled with liquid. So you don't have to retrofit the equi
