The global shipping crisis continues to put immense pressure on the wine industry.
Container shortages have left wine products scrambling to find alternatives to traditional shipping methods.
If you need to ship fresh and young wines in high volumes, a cost-effective, efficient and safe way to ship wine in bulk is with a flexitank. It is a good option because you can double the volume transported in a single container compared to bottled wine. A flexitank holds 24,000 litres, whereas a conventional 20-foot container can fit around 9,900 litres of wine.
Flexitanks are robust fillable bags made of a single or multiple layers of food-grade polyethylene that can fit into a standard container, turning it into a bulk liquid transport solution.
Bulk wine shipping is the process of transporting wine in large volumes for bottling at destination.
When it comes to shipping wine, your top priority is making sure the product gets from point A to B on time and in good condition. And because wine is a delicate product that needs to be shipped in a way that preserves its quality, it’s important to consider how you’re going to transport it.
Shipping wine in flexitanks is one solution that can help protect your wine’s quality during the transport process.
Here’s why:
They can hold large quantities of wine, so you can ship more at once, reducing shipping costs.
They are made from food-grade materials and are recyclable.
They offer a greater thermal inertia than bottles because the large amount of liquid in the flexitank makes it harder for thermal changes to impact the product.
BLUE WHALE's flexitanks are designed with a protective barrier to prevent against oxidation and taint compounds.
Keep in mind that only wine that has not gone through the ageing process can be shipped in flexitanks and bottled at destination.
Don’t believe the myth that only entry-level wine belongs in a flexitank.
The reality is that any wine can be shipped in a flexitank, from budget-friendly options to high-end labels. Bulk shipping wine and the perception of it by winemakers has changed over the years as the benefits of using flexitanks have become more widely known.
The benefits of using a flexitank include:
Large volume shipping
Better cost and CO2e (carbon dioxide equivalent) per litre shipped
Less susceptibility to temperature fluctuations
According to one report, the global flexitank market is expected to reach $3.31 billion by 2028.
