Revolutionizing Bitumen Transportation with Flexitanks

Publish Time: 2023-09-25     Origin: Site

In the world of bitumen transportation, innovation is paving the way to efficiency and sustainability. Traditional methods of shipping bitumen, such as drums and tanks, are giving way to a more flexible and eco-friendly solution - flexitanks. Flexitanks are revolutionizing the bitumen transportation industry by offering a range of benefits that set them apart from traditional methods.

  • Efficiency Redefined

Traditional methods often involve complex logistics, including the need for specialized equipment and multiple handling stages. Flexitanks simplify this process dramatically. They are easily installed and filled, reducing loading time and labor costs. Moreover, their design allows for higher load capacities, which means fewer shipments are needed to transport the same amount of bitumen.


  • Cost Saving

Cost-effectiveness is a critical factor in any industry. Flexitanks not only reduce labor costs but also save on packaging and transportation expenses. By optimizing cargo space and minimizing the need for additional handling equipment, flexitanks offer a cost-effective solution for transporting bitumen, particularly in large quantities.


  • Environmental Responsibility

Flexitanks are single-use and disposable, producing less waste compared to traditional packaging methods. Additionally, the increased volume per shipment reduces the carbon footprint, contributing to a greener, more environmentally responsible bitumen transportation process.


  • Enhanced Product Quality

The sealed design of flexitanks prevents exposure to external elements, such as moisture and air, safeguarding the quality and performance of the bitumen during transportation. This ensures that the bitumen arrives at its destination in optimal condition, meeting the stringent requirements of construction projects.


  • Global Accessibility

Flexitanks are readily available and suitable for both domestic and international shipping. Whether transported via road, rail, or sea, flexitanks can seamlessly integrate into various supply chain scenarios, offering a consistent solution across borders.



LAF HTR Flexitanks used a new heat-resistant material technology, which is specially designed for bulk liquid cargo with high filling temperature, e.g. liquid bitumen or non-hazardous chemicals with similar features. The advantages are as follows:

  • The inner bag could be melted into bitumen, no damage to bitumen quality;

  • HTR Fexitanks could withstand max. 120℃ filling temperature;

  • Load 20% + more bitumen per each 20ft container;

  • No need of any pallet, frame cage, saving packaging cost;

  • After fully loaded with liquid bitumen, the HTR Flexitanks could be transported after 24hrs cooling down, it does not need a peculiar yard or a warehouse to store and cool down.



Choosing LAF HTR flexitanks to streamline the businesses operations, and contribute to a more sustainable and efficient bitumen industry.
