ISO Tank Container for Global Liquid Transportation

Certified, reusable stainless steel ISO Tank Containers designed for the safe and compliant transportation of bulk liquids across international logistics networks. Suitable for ship, rail, and road transport, our ISO tanks support chemical, food-grade, energy, and industrial gas applications worldwide.


What Is an ISO Tank Container?

An ISO Tank Container is a pressure-rated stainless steel tank mounted within a standardized ISO frame, engineered for the multimodal transportation of liquids. Unlike drums, IBCs, or flexitanks, ISO tanks are reusable, fully enclosed systems designed to meet international safety and transport regulations.

ISO tank containers are widely used where safety, cargo integrity, and regulatory compliance are critical.


Typical Cargo & Application Scenarios

ISO Tank Containers are selected based on cargo compatibility, not just capacity. Typical transported media include:

Chemical Liquids

  • Solvents, alcohols, resins

  • Acids and corrosive chemicals (with suitable lining or alloy design)

Food-Grade Liquids

  • Edible oils

  • Wine, juice, liquid sweeteners

  • Food additives (food-grade certified tanks)

Gases & Energy Media

  • LPG

  • Liquid CO₂

  • Other industrial liquefied gases (project-specific)

Material selection, valve configuration, and certification scope are defined according to the transported medium.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. Is the ISO tank suitable for international shipping?

Yes. All tanks are designed for multimodal international transport and supplied with valid CSC plates and compliance documentation.

2. Can the tank transport both chemicals and food-grade liquids?

Food-grade tanks require dedicated cleaning and certification. Tanks should not switch cargo types without proper procedures.

3. What is the difference between ISO tank and flexitank?

ISO tanks are reusable, pressure-rated, and suitable for hazardous cargo; flexitanks are single-use and limited to non-hazardous liquids.

4. Can the tank be customized for specific cargo?

Yes. Material, lining, pressure rating, insulation, and valve configuration can be customized.

5. Are third-party inspections allowed?

Yes. Third-party inspection agencies are welcome at all production and testing stages.

6. How long does production take?

Standard models typically require 45–90 days depending on specification and certification scope.

7. What happens if the tank fails inspection overseas?

Design and testing strictly follow international codes to minimize inspection risk. Technical support is available if issues arise.

8. Are spare parts available long term?

Yes. Standardized components ensure long-term availability.
