CONTAINERPACTM DISPOSABLE AND REUSABLE FLEXITANKS
FTA is a specialist manufacturer of ContainerPacTM flexitanks – bladders are disposable and reuasable, and designed for bulk liquid transport. ContainerPacTM flexitanks can be installed by two people into a 20ft dry sea container (which must be rated to 30 tonne, be less than three years old and lined with corrugated cardboard), ContainerPacTM flexitanks enable the container to transport bulk liquids up to and including 24 tonne.
The advantages of the ContainerPacTM flexitanks are many:
- Capacities in 1000 litre increments from 14,000 litres to 24,000 litres means a larges variety of liquids with various viscosities can be transported;

- A variety of bulkhead configurations are available to suit the liquid being shipped;
- ContainerPacTM flexitanks reduce costs by allowing more products to be shipped for less. Additionally, there are no return expenses, and a ContainerPac flexitank alleviates any cleaning of the container;
- As each bladder is installed NEW, cross contamination problems no longer exist, ensuring the integrity of your payload is upheld;
- Offers an excellent alternative for transportation to remote areas with reduced shipping costs;
- Minimal oxygen contact ensures the product oxidization is kept to a minimum – this is especially important with wines and oils;
