Insulation blankets of custom sizes are available on request to improve temperature maintenance and protection of corrosive and temperature-sensitive cargo.
Polyethylene IBC Tote
The plastic IBC tote is a multi-functional and durable container that has many benefits. It can be used for storing and transporting diverse substances, such as liquids, dry chemical or granular material, as well as powders. The containers are also designed to minimize contamination by blocking moisture and air from getting to the contents. This reduces the product degradation which saves businesses money. Additionally the design of IBC totes permits easy access and discharge via a built-in valve or nozzle.
The IBC tote is easily cleaned, which is crucial when it comes to containers containing potentially dangerous substances or food. The containers can be cleaned and sterilized quickly and easily with steamer or pressure washer. Additionally, the design of these containers is strong enough to withstand harsh environmental conditions.
Depending on the application and the use, IBC totes are available in various sizes, materials and designs. Rigid plastic IBC totes are constructed from high-density polyethylene, which is safe for a range of applications and substances. They are available in various capacities, ranging from 275 up to 330 US gallons, and can be double-stacked to facilitate transportation. Galvanized steel caged IBC Totes are also available for industrial use. They are made from carbon steel, and coated with a protective galvanized coating to stop corrosion.
Caged IBC Totes are used to store and transport hazardous and non-hazardous chemical products along with beverages and food items. They can be stack up to four inches high, and they have a drain valve built-in that reduces the amount of remaining product left behind after emptying. This helps to save space in distribution centers and makes them easier for manual operation.
IBC totes are also used by many people to decorate their home and gardens. For instance, they can be repurposed as a hutch for rabbits by cutting the sides of the tank and incorporating doors. These containers can be used to store compost and organic waste. They also make a great option for storing water from livestock. Some people use them as an eco-friendly and sustainable alternative to traditional rain barrels.
Polypropylene IBC Tote
