Chemical Grade A chemical grade ISO/FLEXI tank is a type of tank container designed for the transportation of various chemicals in bulk quantities. These tanks are built according to specific international standards set by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and are commonly referred to as ISO tanks. Chemical grade ISO/FLEXI tanks are made of stainless steel / Polyethylene material. They are designed to handle hazardous and non-hazardous chemicals, and are typically used to transport liquids such as acids, solvents, and petroleum products and various kinds of chemicals. These tanks are commonly used in the chemical and petrochemical industries for the safe and efficient transport of bulk liquids. They have a capacity of between 14,000 and 26,000 liters and are designed to be stacked on top of one another to maximize storage space during transportation. Food Grade A food grade ISO/FLEXI tank is a specialized type of ISO/FLEXI tank container used for transporting food-grade products such as edible oils, fruit juices, sweeteners, and other liquid food products. These tanks are made of materials that are safe for storing and transporting food products and are designed to maintain the quality and integrity of the food products during transit. They are made of stainless steel / Polyethylene or other food-grade materials and have specialized valves and fittings that are easy to clean and sanitize to prevent contamination of the products being transported. Additionally, food grade tanks may undergo specific certifications or inspections to ensure compliance with food safety regulations. Gas iso tanks Gas ISO tanks are specialized containers designed for the transportation of liquefied gases such as propane, butane, and LPG (liquefied petroleum gas). These tanks are built to withstand the high pressures and extreme temperatures required to transport these types of gases. Gas ISO tanks come in various sizes, from small portable tanks to large tanks that can carry up to 26,000 liters of gas. They are commonly used in the gas industry for the transportation of gas from refineries to distribution centers or for long-distance transportation of gas for industrial and commercial purposes. Gas ISO tanks are also subject to strict safety regulations and must meet specific standards for their design, construction, and maintenance to ensure the safe transportation of their contents. Brand New A brand new ISO/FLEXI tank refers to a tank that has never been used for the transportation of any cargo. These tanks are manufactured according to international standards set by organizations such as the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). They are designed and constructed to withstand the stresses and strains of transportation, including the weight of the cargo, the movements of the transport vehicle, and the environmental conditions during transit. Brand new ISO tanks are typically used for the transportation of sensitive or valuable cargo that requires a high level of safety and security, such as food, chemicals, or pharmaceuticals. UCIRC UCIRC (Uniform Conditions for the Inspection and Repair of Containers) is an international guide for the in-service inspection, repair, and maintenance of intermodal shipping containers. It was first introduced in 1975 by the International Container Bureau (BIC) and has since been widely adopted as the industry standard for container maintenance and repair. The aim of UCIRC is to establish consistent criteria and procedures for the inspection, repair, and maintenance of containers to ensure their safe transportation and to extend their useful life. The guidelines cover a wide range of topics, including the inspection and repair of structural components, flooring, doors, and seals, as well as the identification and marking of containers. The UCIRC guidelines are regularly reviewed and updated to reflect changes in industry standards and best practices. IICL-5 and IICL-6 IICL stands for “International Institute of Container Lessors,” an organization that provides technical services and advice to the container leasing and shipping industries. IICL-5 and IICL-6 are both standards developed by the organization for the condition of shipping containers. IICL-5 refers to a standard that applies to used containers suitable for continued service in international shipping, provided that maintenance and repairs are performed in accordance with IICL guidelines. These guidelines outline specific criteria for the condition of the container, such as the condition of the flooring, walls, and roof, and any damage that must be repaired. IICL-6, on the other hand, refers to a standard for the condition of new or near-new containers that have not been previously used for international shipping. These containers should be free of significant defects and should meet all the requirements of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). Overall, these standards serve as guidelines for ensuring the quality and safety of containers used in international shipping.
