A professionally manufactured and correctly installed flexitank can be a reliable solution for transporting suitable non-hazardous bulk liquids. This is consistent with the framework established by the Container Owners Association (COA) Code of Practice for Flexitank Container Systems (TG-07) and PAS 1008:2018, which together define the performance, testing, and quality management requirements for safe flexitank operations.
This guide explains how to choose a flexitank by evaluating cargo compatibility, capacity, materials, valves, safety standards, supplier quality, technical support, and total logistics cost.
For products such as edible oils, wine, juice concentrates, syrups, and food ingredients, transportation safety is a critical consideration.
A food grade flexitank is specifically designed for transporting food-contact liquids in bulk quantities while maintaining product quality during transportation.
A polyurethane flexitank is a bulk liquid packaging solution specifically designed for transporting non-hazardous polyurethane raw materials in standard ISO containers. Compared with general-purpose flexitanks, a polyurethane flexitank is engineered around the operational characteristics of polyols and related materials, including viscosity, loading temperature, unloading efficiency, and long-distance transportation requirements. Rather than serving as a one-size-fits-all packaging solution, it is developed to address the specific logistics needs of the polyurethane industry.
