Benefits of Using Flexitanks for Glycerin Transportation

Glycerol is a non-toxic organic compound, known commercially as glycerin. It is a by-product of two independent processes: hydrolysis and transesterification. The former is used for soap and fatty acid production while the latter is the process in which biodiesel is produced. Today, around 66% of the world’s glycerin supply comes from biodiesel production. As one of the safest industrial chemical materials, glycerin is used extensively in the food, aesthetic medicine and nutraceutical industry.

There are many advantages for glycerin transportation by using flexitanks:

● Increase Payloads with LAF Flexitanks

Flexitanks offer 15% more per payload than IBCs and 40% more payload than drums.

● Easily Available without Cleaning, Return, or Demurrage Cost

Flexitanks offer a reliable and economical alternative to shipping glycerin in ISO tanks.

It is easily available with NO cleaning, return, or demurrage costs unlike ISO tanks.

● Simplify Bulk Liquid Logistics Supply Chain

Flexitank is the smartest solution for containerized transport of bulk liquid, especially for multimodal transport, which optimize the supply chain by allowing producers to ship the loaded product directly to the customer, even can reach inland.

Liquid commodity can be pumped into Flexitank directly from storage tank, reducing labor operation in palletizing, container stuffing at the origin; when container arrives at destination, liquid could be discharged out of Flexitank automatically with pump without further labor unloading and warehousing management.

In this way, Flexitank simplifies your bulk liquid logistics supply chain by eliminating manual handling operations, increasing comprehensive efficiency of the supply chain, and reducing overall logistics cost.

● Reducing Bulk Liquid Logistics Cost with LAF Flexitanks

Due to the factors mentioned above, Flexitanks can additionally increase the overall efficiency of your essential operations, and reducing comprehensive logistics cost, allowing you to expand your business with obvious pricing advantage.
