Popular IBC Tote Uses

 

Storage and transportation are costly to many companies. Fortunately, many companies today have options that can safely secure precious cargo and even offer cost-effective shipping solutions. A product must be reliable, functional, and secure if convenience is a currency. It provides a reliable storage option for businesses while making it easier to move between locations. Product that stays top of mind on the market today when considering the transport of liquids or powders is IBC totes and IBC tanks. IBC totes or intermediate bulk containers are highly durable options that can replace other containers, such as 55-gallon drums. The volume range of most IBC totes can replace six or more 55-gallon drums.

Advantages of IBCs

 

The use of intermediate bulk containers provides many advantages. It provides an efficient way to move many different liquids or powders safely. With common outer dimensions that are a cubic form, the form of an IBC tote saves on space and uses shipping space more efficiently. This form allows for more excellent storage of materials within an identical footprint than cylindrical containers do and uses space efficiently. IBCs are made of solid and durable materials, making them suitable for transporting many materials, including chemical products.

Many IBC totes feature stacking lugs and other options like a steel cage, heavy-duty base, NPT valves, and more. The most common material for totes that are 300 gallons would be stainless steel or carbon steel, but they can also be made from high-density polyethylene (HDPE) . However, they all tend to have the same base dimensions that follow a standard pallet dimension to allow for the use of a pallet jack.

When using an IBC tote, you have the most cost-efficient use for transporting liquids and powders. You can cut down on freight costs by utilizing the space in shipping containers more efficiently, especially since IBC must pass a strict stacking test load which helps you save on vertical space efficiently.

With high-density polyethylene (HDPE) IBC totes, you can be sure that you can safely store liquids, food oils, or other food-grade materials, as most IBC totes meet strict food-grade standards. This can also be true of most stainless steel IBC containers. But if you intend to use your IBC containers for food-grade applications, it is always best practice to double-check with the manufacturer to be sure it meets the standards.
