A tank container is a specialized intermodal container engineered to transport liquids, gases, and flowable bulk cargos such as powders, pastes, and granules. Combining the structural integrity of a pressure vessel with the standardized dimensions of an ISO shipping container, it is widely utilized across global logistics. The central tank structure is securely mounted within a heavy-duty framework, delivering structural protection, stability, and streamlined multi-modal handling across sea, rail, and road networks.
| External Dimension (MM) | 6058 * 2438 * 2591 |
| Tare Mass | 3450 kg (±3%) |
| Maximum Gross Weight | 36000 kg |
The structural body is constructed using high-grade industrial steel or specialized corrosion-resistant alloys, engineered to endure heavy pressure and impact loads during long-haul transit. When handling pressurized liquefied gas or high-risk liquids, the vessel retains integrity against elevated pressures of several megapascals, significantly mitigating spill risks.
Tank containers significantly lower per-unit freight charges by offering optimized bulk capacity. Unlike single-use transport barrels and drums, their heavy-duty reusable lifecycle removes the high cost of intermediate disposal, making bulk transport far more cost-effective and operationally streamlined.
Replacing disposable bulk packaging such as steel or polymer barrels directly eliminates significant industrial packaging waste. The fully circular, recyclable nature of tank containers supports greener logistics and compliance with strict environmental discharge regulations.
