20ft Container flexitank
The flexitank is a new soft package used for load and transport of non-hazardous liquid products, it's made of 1or 2 layers PP and multi-layers PE Film. It is suitable for 20ft container with total volume from 14KL to 26KL. It is the best replacement for the tranditional and expensive
package like jars, iron drums and buckets to transport non-hazardous liquid. The flexitank have the following characteristics:
--Light self weight and packing sizes,cheaper price but Large cargo capacity, significantly reduce the cost of packaging, barreling, storage, handling and material management;
--Easy operation, convenient loading and unloading, improve loading efficiency;
--One-time use, exclusive to eliminate the risk of cross-contamination of goods;
--Recyclable and degradable after use, no pollution, ECO friendly.
Flexitank Composition
The flexitank is composited with Flexitank / Flexibag, Paper Cardboard/ Bulkhead, Steel Bars / Anti-Bulge steel Bars, Corrugated Paper,Valves, Air Vent and accessories.
Flexitank Application:
Flexitank usedFood products,Industrial productandNon-hazardous liquid productsdelivery.
-- Food: Alcohol liquids (wine,beer syrup,yellow wine,etc.) , edible oil, including all kinds of vegetable oil ( corn oil, Olive oil, plam oil, tungoil & China wood oil, coconut oil and castor oil etc.) fish oil, food additives. Water, juice,concentrate Liquor, drug additives sorbic alcohol, malt extract, fruit jam, egg white, liquid glucose, syrups, saccharose(malt dust for example) , sauces, (soy for example), milk , sugar etc.
--Industrial: Base oil,fat, machine oil, lubricating oil (additives), electric insulating oil, transformer fluid, drilling mud oil, bunker oil, White oil,glycerin, hydraulic fluid, industrial gear oil, high oil fatty acid, petroxolin, mineral oil, printing oil, technical oil, Alkylate, etc.
--Non-hazardous Liquids Chemicals: Plasticizer, synthetic resin, cleanser,eradicator shampoo, disinfector,antirust agent & inhibitor,surfactant, polybasic alcohol, Feed additives, saline solution, propanediol & propylene glycol, ethanediol glycol, polyether, Alkylation agents, herbicide, Fertilizer, (natural) emulsions, synthetic latex, glue water, adhesion agents (silicate for example), water based paint,lanotin, Fatty acid, paper pulp, fluorescence brightener,printing ink, silicate liquid, tall oil, dispersant & chlorinated paraffin, etc.
The Flexitank Comparative Advantages:
--Comparison with ISO Tank
1) The max volume of each flexi-tank is 24 000 liters, so is ISO tank; but, to use flexi-tank means you just need to pay freight for the 20 feet container, which is a big cost-cut compared with ISO tank freight.
2) The supply and distribution of ISO tank is influenced by many factors, which often may have an impact on customers' plan of import & export, not mention the cost of transfer and loading; it's too much for customers to bear. While the flexi-tank is free from the influence of supply, distribution, region and environment; what's more, it takes much less to transfer or load the goods. This is a great favor for customers.
3) The rent for ISO tank is $25/day, and its return and clean may cost $400; while flexi-tank can save these cost.
4) Generally, the ISO tank supply is short and its shipping space is limited; while flexi-tank does not have such problems. It's in the 20 feet container as ordinary goods in dry container, which can guarantee customers' plan of export & import and reduce their operation cost.
--Comparison with Drums
1) Each 20 feet container can take in 80 drums of 200 liters in volume, and each drum cost $22 to $30, which means a package cost range from $1764 to $2353; nevertheless, the price of each flexi-tank is much lower than that of 80 drums, an absolute advantage.
2) The max volume that a container of drums can take is 16 000 liters, while one flexi-tank can take around 24 000 liters; in the mean time the freight is the same as that of 80 drums. In other words, 3 standard containers with flexi-tanks can take the goods of 4 standard containers with drums, and the cost of one container is saved.
3) The loading of flexi-tank is one way and one time, easier than that of drums, so much labor and time is saved at the same time.
--Comparison with IBC
1)First, each IBC may cost $176, each 20 feet standard container can take 18 IBCs, which means $3176 in package cost; yet, each flexi-tank just cost $350.
2) Second, the max volume of each IBC is 1.2 tons, 18 IBCs in a standard 20 feet container can take 21 600 liters at most, while one flexi-tank can take in 24 000 liters of liquid, which means an additional 2400 liters can loaded at the same freight with 18 IBCs.
3) Finally, to load IBC need such equipment as forklift etc, and it takes a long time; while to load a flexi-tank do not need those mechanical equipments; it can be done by 2 workers in 30 minutes, which is another favor for customers in bulk liquid shipment.
