These are five reasons why you should consider Flexitanks
1. Save money
Flexitanks are one-use-only containers. It is ideal for food-grade items like your orange juice. Flexitanks will help you save tons of money in the long run. It will also ensure you are stress-free, knowing that your orange juice is clean and safe for consumption. Plus, you don’t need to spend extra bucks on cleaning or finding a space to store them – it’s immediately recycled once emptied.
2. Ecofriendly Shipping Option
Using flexitanks for your orange juice transportation is more sustainable. It is recycled once it is used for liquid bulk transport. This way, you can also be confident that there will be no cross contamination in your deliveries. At Kan-Haul, our flexitanks use layers of FDA-approved 100% virgin VLDPE polyethylene. This durable resin delivers an excellent performance, so you’ll have peace of mind when your orange juice is in transit. Moreover, polyethylene can also be reprocessed to manufacture new items. By using flexitanks, you are investing in an innovative technology that lets you offset your carbon footprint and allows you to contribute to making the Earth a livable space for future generations.
3. Ships larger quantities than Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBCs) and Barrels
Unlike IBCs and Barrels, flexitanks do not consume much space, and the container doesn’t add too much weight to the truckload. With this, flexitanks can transport 44% more liquid in each container than barrels or drums. It can also deliver 15% more compared to IBC totes.
On average, one flexitank can hold up to 24,000 liters of orange juice. To transport the same amount using barrels, you will need about 85 of them. Besides this, you will have to consider if your truck can safely hold the weight of 85 barrels and juice combined.
4. Easy to load up
Barrels require you to have a lot of manpower for them to get filled up and loaded into the truck. With flexitanks, you’re finally saying bye to this time-consuming and costly way of bulk liquid transport. All you need to do is lay the flexitank properly on the bottom of the container and connect the hoses for loading and unloading.
