FLEXITANK VS ISOTANK

Increased availability:

The flexitank can be positioned anywhere in the world within days and in any case, it is much cheaper to maintain an available stock than the isotanks. Instead, Isotanks must be cleaned and repositioned once used, which can not always be available.

BEST COST:

There are many routes where the isotank once reaches its destination and is empty, should be sent vacuum to another site because there is no return loads. The customer may not know this, but in practice ends up paying the cost of returning empty. By using the flexitank, it is always much easier to reuse a standard shipping container.

 

 

FLEXITANK VS DRUM OR IBC?

Best cost:

In a sea container with flexitank can get several thousand liters more than drums, which directly affects the logistics cost.

Ease of handling:

It is much easier, cheaper and safe to handle a hose than drums or IBC’s.

Low environmental impact:

The flexitank is made of 100% recyclable materials.
