FLEXITANK

 

 What is Flexitank?

Flexitank is a flexible Poli Ethylene(PE) bag which can be installed inside a standard 20 foot container, converting it into a container for the transportation of liquids, with a capacity of up to 24,000 litres. When the Flexitank is removed, the container reverts back to a container for to be used for dry goods, and the Flexitank can be disposed of. It is the ideal medium for storing and transporting all types of non-risk and chemical liquids. Flexitank is easy to use and makes maximum use of the available container space. It can transport a great variety of non-risk products, for example water, wine, fruit juice, oil, latex, lubricants, additives and many more. Flexitank virtually eliminates possible contamination and may easily be recycled without endangering the environment.
