Contamination Risk and Advantages of Flexitank Use
As Neoflex, we stand out as an important solution in liquid transportation, especially in the food industry with our flexitank solutions. While traditional methods used in the transportation of liquid products (such as tank containers, drums, IBC tanks) often carry contamination risks, flexitanks offer advantages that minimize these risks. In industries where food safety is critical, flexitanks are increasingly being used to transport products in clean and hygienic conditions.
Flexitanks have several advantages in eliminating the risk of contamination:
Flexitanks completely eliminate the risk of residues or contamination from the previous transportation, as a new flexitank is used for each new transportation. Traditional tank containers and drums, on the other hand, need to be cleaned and disinfected for reuse. This process is both time consuming and costly. There is also the risk of residue from the chemicals used during the cleaning process.
Flexitanks are made from materials such as multilayer polyethylene and polypropylene that are specially designed and manufactured for food transportation. These materials comply with international food safety standards and do not react in any way with the liquid they carry. This eliminates the risk of chemical or microbiological contamination that could jeopardize the quality and safety of food products.
Flexitanks can be easily installed and filled directly into a standard sea container. No extra equipment or tools are required during use. This reduces both operational costs and the risk of contamination due to human error during transportation. The minimal surface area in contact with the product provides a great advantage in terms of hygiene.
In addition to eliminating the risk of contamination, Flexitanks do not require cleaning and preparation before use, resulting in significant time and cost savings. This allows the transportation process to be completed faster and more cost-effectively. Compared to the cleaning and drying processes of alternative methods, the use of flexitanks offers a huge advantage in logistics processes.
As Neoflex, we are more preferred than alternative transportation methods with our hygienic and safe flexitank solutions we offer in liquid transportation. We provide operational efficiency with the disposable structures of flexitanks, food safe materials, ease of installation and use, and offer an ideal option against the risk of contamination. For companies operating in the food and beverage industry, using flexitanks is one of the best ways to optimize logistics processes while maintaining product safety and quality. These advantages show that it will become even more widespread in liquid transportation in the future.
