The 40ft Container Flexitank is a high-capacity flexible liquid transport solution
specifically designed for standard 40ft containers (40GP/40HC).
It is suitable for global ocean, rail, road, and multimodal transportation,
and is widely used for the transportation of non-hazardous liquids
across the food, chemical, energy, and other industries.
With a maximum capacity of up to 28,000 L — subject to cargo density,
container specifications, and applicable transportation regulations —
40ft Flexitank helps improve transport efficiency, reduce overall logistics costs,
and meet the needs of large-volume, long-distance liquid transportation.
The 40ft Flexitank makes efficient use of the internal space of a 40ft container, with a maximum capacity of up to 28 KL. Subject to applicable transportation regulations, its high loading capacity can improve transportation efficiency per container and reduce the number of shipments required, helping lower packaging, handling, and logistics costs per unit of product.
The 40ft Flexitank enables better utilization of available 40ft container resources, helping alleviate transportation pressures caused by limited 20ft container availability. Companies can flexibly adjust container types according to port conditions, shipping routes, and equipment availability, reducing the risk of shipment delays caused by equipment shortages.
The 40ft Container Flexitank provides an opportunity to make productive use of empty containers on return routes, offering shipping lines, container owners, and logistics providers a higher-value backhaul solution. By improving container utilization and reducing unnecessary empty repositioning, it helps optimize equipment turnover and overall logistics efficiency.
Suitable for ocean, rail, road, and multimodal transportation, the 40ft Container Flexitank supports bulk liquid logistics across different regions and transport modes. Its flexibility enables companies to explore new trade lanes, reach new markets, and serve new customers with a more adaptable bulk liquid transport solution.
