Flexitanks

A system that is equally simple as it is ingenious for the global transport of all common (non-toxic) liquid bulk in containers

ZBL is the business partner on various continents worldwide of the largest European flexibag producers or market leaders in this segment. We supply you with their Flexitanks, train you in the use of the equipment and arrange your global transport from A to Z. Agreements are in place between ZBL and numerous deepsea shipping lines - including the three largest in the world - about the maritime transport of Flexitanks to any desired destination. Always fitted in the highest standard of containers, so extra reliable. Flexitanks are of premium quality and are always more cost-efficient across long distances than expensive tank containers.

Easy

ZBL makes transport in Flexitanks easy. We have all the technical know-how, arrange for the Flexitanks to be installed in containers and/or train your employees to do this. Our company operates all over the world, to the full satisfaction of an ever expanding customer base.

Wide range of cargo

Flexitanks are suitable for a wide range of liquid bulk, both foods and chemicals, excluding ADR and IMO.

Optimum protection

The Flexitank will fit into any 20-foot container. Depending on the intended cargo, the capacity varies from 14,000 to 24,000 litres (14 to 24 KL). For an optimal protection of your cargo, each Flexitank consists of several layers of polyethylene, with an outer layer made of polypropylene to ensure the bag's sturdiness. The addition of a layer of aluminium allows for extra protection against temperature variations and air absorption.

Same consistent quality

Your product (for example wine) will always retain the same, consistent quality during transport. A metal bulkhead together with plastic panels prevent the Flexitank from coming into contact with the container wall during transport.

Flexitanks are manufactured at HACCP-certified factories and fully meet all current FDA and EU regulations pertaining to food safety.
