Hillebrand unveils world’s biggest flexitank

Logistics provider Hillebrand has unveiled a “revolutionary” 40-foot long flexitank, the largest of its type and designed to increase efficiency and reduce emissions.

Originally created to meet the demands of the fruit juice industry, the tank can be used for any non-hazardous liquid that needs transporting in dry or temperature controlled containers.

Fully recyclable, the tank is not only better for moving larger quantities of liquid but it is also more transport efficient which helps reduce emissions as well.

Jacob Moe, COO of Hillebrand’s bulk division, said: “This new flexitank is the result of careful research and our promise to always build solutions in response to customers’ needs. Born from the original request from a fruit juice producing customer, to find a solution for moving product in frozen conditions and a latex customer to move product in hot conditions, this flexitank was designed to manage any non-hazardous product.

“Whether cold, hot or ambient. This is a sustainable option for customers wanting to move large quantities of product in a flexitank that is 100% recyclable.”
