ISO Tank Container Overview

An ISO tank container is a large stainless steel pressure vessel held within a 20-foot ISO frame that is used for the transportation and storage of bulk liquids. The dimension of the frame follows an international ISO standard which allows the containers to be inter-modally transported globally via container ships, trucks and/or rail.   An ISO tank container is able to carry up to 66% more product than a standard 20-foot container loaded with 70-80 drums of the same product, lowering the unit shipping costs while assuring a safe containment of the cargo.  Due to its ease of handling, effectiveness and efficiency, ISO thank containers are the preferred choice for bulk liquid transportation.
