What is an IBC Tank
IBC (Intermediate Bulk Container), commonly known as IBC tote, is a mainstream industrial packaging for bulk liquid storage and transportation worldwide. A standard IBC consists of an HDPE blow-molded inner container, hot-dip galvanized steel cage and integrated pallet. It supports four-way forklift access, multi-layer stacking and sea container shipment. The HDPE liner features good chemical resistance against acid & alkali, anti-aging property and reliable sealing. It can be used for non-hazardous liquids as well as UN-certified dangerous goods. Widely applied in fine chemicals, food, daily chemicals, coatings, water treatment, pharmaceutical and other sectors. With large capacity, high space utilization and reusability, IBC tanks have gradually replaced traditional 200L plastic drums and become the preferred packaging solution for bulk liquid logistics globally.
