How to transport peanut oil to save more transportation costs? There is no doubt that the answer is the flexitank.
The advantages of flexitank transportation of Peanut oil compared with traditional transportation methods cannot be underestimated.
● Nowadays，flexitank is the mainstream transportation method for peanut oil, each flexitank can load up to 23 tons of peanut oil, and an entire 20-foot container of IBC can load 18 tons. If all 300,000 tons of peanut oil are transported in flexitanks, about 13,000 flexitanks (containers) need to be used. All of which are transported by IBC, in this case, 16,000 containers need to be transported, which is equivalent to saving the freight of 3,000 containers every year. Under the trend of wild increase in sea freight, the freight of 3,000 containers is a huge cost. So, using flexitanks would save a lot expenses for the peanut oil industry.
● The flexitank is significantly less expensive than the more commonly used ISO tanks. Because flexitank do not need rent and cleaning cost, and sufficient to supply for 20ft container.
● One Flexitank in 20ft container can transport up to 25KL of peanut oil per trip, IBC and drums in a 20ft container just can transport up to 20KL per trip, so in the case of transporting the same amount of peanut oil, flexitank can save 20% sea freight.
