Many shippers are transitioning from traditional packaging methods like drums and jerry cans to innovative flexitanks/flexibags like LiquA. This shift is driven by several compelling factors that make LiquA flexitanks/flexibags a superior choice for transporting liquids.
Cost Efficiency
One of the most significant advantages of LiquA flexitanks/flexibags is their cost efficiency. A LiquA flexitank/flexibag can hold up to 27,000 liters of liquid, allowing shippers to maximize container space. This optimization means fewer trips are required, significantly lowering transportation costs. In contrast, smaller per-unit drums with a capacity of 206 liters and jerry cans with a capacity of 27 liters take up more space and necessitate more shipments, leading to increased logistics expenses.
Reduced Waste
LiquA flexitanks/flexibags generate less packaging waste compared to traditional containers. Once emptied, they can be folded and stored compactly before disposal, unlike bulky drums and jerry cans that consume valuable storage space. This reduced waste not only lowers disposal costs but also aligns with sustainability goals, making LiquA flexitanks/flexibags an attractive option for environmentally conscious companies.
Safety and Quality Preservation
LiquA flexitanks/flexibags are designed with safety in mind. Their construction minimizes the risk of leakage and contamination, ensuring that products maintain their quality during transit. This is particularly crucial for sensitive liquids such as edible oils and chemicals.
Streamlined Loading/Discharge
Loading and discharge processes are significantly faster with LiquA flexitanks/flexibags. The flexible design allows for easy integration with various filling systems, reducing labor costs and improving turnaround times. In a competitive market, the ability to speed up operations can provide a substantial edge.
Environmental Benefits
As businesses become more environmentally conscious, LiquA flexitanks/flexibags present a greener alternative. The design reduces transportation-related carbon emissions. This eco-friendly approach not only meets regulatory requirements but also appeals to consumers who prioritize sustainability.
Improved Storage and Transportation
LiquA flexitanks/flexibags are lightweight and flexible, leading to reduced freight costs and improved storage logistics. This can result in significant savings, especially for high-volume shipments.
