In the world of bulk bitumen logistics, efficiency and reliability are everything. Yet, for years, the 40ft flexitank has remained an industry challenge — limited by high internal pressure, heat resistance requirements, and a lack of proven large-scale applications.
Now, LAF has changed that.
With nearly two decades of R&D expertise in liquid packaging, LAF has successfully brought the industry’s first commercialized 40ft Bitumen Flexitank from concept to mass production — marking a major leap forward for asphalt transport.
Three Core Advantages Powering the Breakthrough
● Over 20% Higher Loading Efficiency
Fully optimized for 40ft standard containers, the LAF Bitumen Flexitank enables a maximum loading weight of up to 25 tons per container — increasing efficiency by more than 20% compared to traditional 20ft tanks. This translates directly to lower unit transport costs and improved logistics performance.
● Perfect Fit for Global 40ft Container Networks
Designed for seamless compatibility with global 40ft container transport systems, it eliminates conversion issues and supports smoother cross-border logistics operations.
● Reliable High-Temperature Endurance
Engineered to withstand filling temperatures up to 120°C, the flexitank ensures safe performance across multiple bitumen grades — including 60/70, 85/100, and 200/300. Each filling cycle takes around 30 minutes, offering both efficiency and reliability under demanding transport conditions.
Proven Performance, Validated by the Market
Between May and July 2025, LAF’s technical team conducted full-scale field trials from loading sites in the Middle East to unloading sites in China. The trials demonstrated stable operation, consistent temperature control, and safe product delivery.
Following the successful validation, LAF has entered long-term cooperation with major customers. This achievement not only demonstrates LAF’s technical strength and manufacturing capacity, but also validates the real-world commercial viability of the 40ft bitumen flexitank.
Pioneering Innovation in Fluid Logistics
LAF’s 40ft Bitumen Flexitank represents more than a product breakthrough — it’s a redefinition of bitumen logistics efficiency. With its larger capacity, high-temperature tolerance, and simplified handling, it provides a scalable solution for industries facing the dual challenge of high logistics cost and limited 20ft container availability.
By continuously pushing technological boundaries and integrating advanced materials, LAF is shaping a smarter, safer, and more sustainable future for global liquid logistics.
