Flexitanks are expandable PVC or polyethylene tanks meant to fit inside a standard 20' heavy duty container. Suitable for carriage of most bulk liquids that are non hazardous and within a specific gravity range of 0.85 to 1.2, this product has revolutionized the carriage of bulk liquids offering a cheaper and more cost effective mode of transporting bulk liquids that are suitable for flexitanks.

Our principals BLC Flexitanks, based in Malaysia, manufacture a wide range of flexitanks specially designed for the carriage of various liquids. Going against the 'one size fits all' policy which many other operators tend to follow, often with disastrous results; BLC designs and manufactures flexitanks which are found to be most suitable.
