      What is a Tank container?

      A Tank container is not a box: it is a cylindrical stainless steel tank housed inside a frame built to standard ISO dimensions. The tank contains the cargo; the frame takes on the profile and lifting corners of a standard container.

      It is this dual nature that defines its function. The tank carries in bulk what no closed container can properly contain: liquids, liquefied gases, free-flowing powders. The ISO frame makes this tank as manageable as any other container — it travels by ship, rail, and truck without any transfer, whereas a bare tank would require pumping at every stage.

      Unlike an IBC — the large plastic tote for bulk goods — the tank container is designed for industrial volumes and regulated products: food-grade, chemical, and petroleum. Its stainless steel tank, approvals, and safety features are dimensioned for the transport of materials whose containment tolerates no failure.

      • Stainless steel tank

        At the heart of the container is a cylindrical stainless steel tank. It carries liquids, liquefied gases, or free-flowing powders in bulk — goods that no closed box could contain.
      • ISO frame

        The tank is mounted in a frame built to standard ISO dimensions. It travels from vessel to rail to truck without any transfer, where a bare tank would require pumping at every break in cargo.
      • Regulated products

        The tank container carries food-grade, chemical, or petroleum products. The product admitted depends on the tank approval, which governs the nature of the materials it may carry.
      • Enhanced safety

        Unlike a simple IBC, the tank container is designed for industrial volumes and sensitive materials. Its tank, approvals, and safety devices tolerate no containment failure.

      In detail

      What is a new 20ft Tank shipping container?

      The 20ft Tank container is a shipping container fitted with an integrated steel tank. It carries liquids or gases "in bulk"; that is, unpackaged, directly in the tank, with no drums or cans. The "first-trip" designation refers to a new unit, which has made only a single positioning journey before being put up for sale: tank never filled, original valves and seals.

      The tank offers a usable capacity of 26,000 liters for 32,580 kg of payload. It is housed in a Corten steel box, a self-weathering steel that resists marine corrosion on its own, in the standard ISO format. Loading is from the top, unloading from the bottom, and pressure gauges monitor pressure and fill level.

      In detail

      What products can be transported in a Tank container?

      The Tank container carries three main categories of bulk liquids: food products (vegetable oils, wines, juices, syrups), chemical products (solvents, lubricants, additives), and certain industrial gases. The tank avoids any intermediate packaging and any transshipment between modes of transport.

      Transporting hazardous materials is governed by two regulations. ADR, the European agreement on the international carriage of dangerous goods by road, governs road journeys. IMDG, the International Maritime Dangerous Goods code, governs sea journeys. A Tank container can comply with these standards depending on the tank's configuration and the material transported.

      Applications

      Uses of a new 20ft Tank shipping container

      The new 20ft format serves international bulk liquid flows, where tank capacity must go hand in hand with regulatory compliance.

      The applications below show in which contexts this format is most relevant. Each use case connects the on-site need to the container's concrete benefit.

      • Food industry

        Vegetable oils, wines, fruit juices, syrups, and concentrates transported to packaging plants.

      • Non-hazardous chemical industry

        Food-grade solvents, industrial cleaning products, and lubricants in secure transport. The value here is securing the use without oversizing the format or complicating installation.

      • Petrochemicals and energy

        Petroleum derivatives, additives, and special fluids compliant with IMDG standards.

      • Cosmetics and pharmaceutical industry

        Liquid raw materials, concentrated active ingredients, and semi-finished products destined for packaging.

      Highlights

      Why buy a new 20ft Tank shipping container

      The new 20ft Tank container is the standard format for bulk liquid transport in the intermodal network. The strengths below explain what the stainless tank and ISO frame bring, capacity, multimodality, safety, and what distinguishes a Tank container from a simple industrial vessel.

      The strengths below explain what each technical choice brings to the project. They help compare the product with a less specialized alternative or a different condition.

      • Integrated 26,000 L steel tank

        The stainless tank offers the standard capacity in the maritime segment for bulk liquid transport. It is sized for industrial volumes.

      • 20ft ISO format

        The ISO frame makes the Tank container stackable in a hold and transportable by rail or truck. Cargo travels start to finish with no transshipment.

      • Original valves and pressure gauges

        Loading is from the top, unloading from the bottom, and the pressure gauges continuously monitor pressure and fill level.

      • ADR / IMDG compliance possible

        Depending on the tank's configuration and associated certifications, the Tank container transports hazardous materials, by road as well as by sea.

      • Welded Corten box and tank

        The steel structure and welded tank guarantee maritime-grade robustness, compliant with ISO 6346 and CSC standards.

      • Complete ISO container

        It is a genuine long-haul multimodal transport container; not a simple industrial vessel confined to local use.

      Applications

      What is the price of a new 20ft Tank shipping container

      The new 20ft Tank container is a specialized maritime trade product: its price follows the manufacturing cycles of welded steel tanks and the more limited availability of ADR- or IMDG-compliant units.

      Four levers drive price variation:

      The factors below explain why the price can vary from one quote to another. They help you read a quote by distinguishing the product price, availability, and delivery costs.

      • Demand for bulk liquid transport

        The growth of food, petrochemical, and chemical flows sustains lasting demand for 20ft Tank containers.

      • Cost of Corten steel and the tank

        The box, welded tank, valves, and pressure gauges weigh heavily on the factory price.

      • Maritime logistics pressures

        Tank container supply remains more limited than that of standard dry containers, with long industrial cycles.

      • Downstream costs

        Standard 20ft road transport, specialized handling for liquids, and ADR certification for loading.
