Why ISO TANK

Why ISO tank containers suit liquid chemicals

Door-to-door tank container transport is gradually replacing drums and becoming the mainstream mode for liquid chemicals.

Lower cost

A standard 20ft tank container carries about 45% more liquid cargo than a 20ft container fully loaded with drums — "more cargo for the same freight" — which lowers the land and ocean cost per unit of cargo. It also saves the purchase and disposal cost of drums.

Simplified handling

There is no costly, time-consuming drum filling process, no drum purchase, handling or disposal, and less chance of product contamination or of losses from residue left in emptied drums.

Higher safety

ISO tank transport is recognized as the safest way to move chemical products. When cargo is distributed around the world, it is a tool with no leakage and no spillage.

Better for the environment

Tank container transport avoids cargo spillage and the pollution problems of drum handling. For this reason, laws in Europe and America already require ISO tank transport for certain cargoes and restrict the use of drums.
