When a flexitank is the right choice

A flexitank allows a standard container to be used for non-hazardous liquid cargo without engaging a specialized tank.

  1. Standard container

    The flexitank is installed in a standard 20-foot or 40-foot container, so it can be incorporated into a container logistics chain.

  2. Single-use container

    After use, no washing and return operations typical of reusable specialized packaging are required.

  3. Operational savings

    No separate fleet of tanks is required; the solution also avoids the rail tariff for tank cars.

  4. Fast handling

    The technology provides fast loading and unloading within the agreed arrangement.

What cargo we transport

We confirm flexitank applicability for a specific product before transportation begins.
