Detailed Product Description
What is
flexitank?
This flexitank , one way pillow type, is designed for the
transportation of liquids in 20' steel containers. It is conceived
as expendable packing for the transportation of not only food-type
products in liquid form such as wine and fruit juice concentrates
but also of industrial liquids in so far as the latter are not
classified as hazardous.
LAF flexitanks range in size from 10 000 to 24 000 liters
(depending on product density), but can be manufactured to
accommodate specific capacity requirements. They are designed to
maximize utilisation of containers to achieve an optimum payload of
16 - 24 tons, depending on road weight restrictions.
LAF flexitanks are made using a single-layered, custom formulated
blended polyethylene, the ingredients of which are approved by the
US Food & Drugs Administration (FDA) for the carriage of a wide
range of liquid foodstuffs.
LAF flexitanks offer you a dynamic, flexible, safe and cost
effective solution for all your bulk liquid transport
requirements.
