High tech Inliner for ISO tank containers

Project description

The first single-use liner for tank containers will reduce costs, time and logistics inefficiencies

Tank containers are significantly more efficient than standard dry cargo tanks when it comes to transporting both hazardous and non-hazardous liquids, powders and gases. However, cleaning the tanks after each use is inefficient in terms of time, money and logistics. Imagine being able to just dispose of a tank liner after each use, like taking out the trash in a garbage bag. The Dutch SME Mega-Inliner has developed the first single-use high-tech polymeric liner for tank containers. The EU-funded Mega-Inliner project will help the team optimise the technology and prepare the business plan for commercialisation, initially targeting breweries.
