What Is a Flexitank and How Is It Different from an ISO Tank?

A flexitank is a polymer liner installed inside a standard container, used to transport non-hazardous liquids such as edible oils or industrial fluids. In contrast, ISO tanks are designed for hazardous, chemical, or pressurized materials, offering much greater durability and safety compared to flexitanks.

Why Is ISO Tank Inspection Important?

Specialized inspections—such as ISO container checks, periodic inspections of insulated tanks, and ISO tank certifications—are essential not only for cargo safety but also for compliance with international transport standards. Partnering with a reputable inspection company ensures the quality, safety, and compliance of your international logistics operations.
