The use of flexitanks for asphalt transportation is primarily due to their significant advantages in efficiency, safety, and cost. The following are specific reasons:


1. Efficient loading and transportation:

Flexitanks fully utilize the space of standard containers and typically hold 16,000 to 24,000 liters of asphalt, a larger volume than traditional drums or cans. This reduces trips and improves logistics efficiency.

2. Cost-effectiveness:

Compared to traditional steel drums or dedicated tank trucks, flexitanks are disposable or low-cost packaging materials. They are simple to install and use, reducing cleaning, maintenance, and empty return trip costs. The economic benefits of flexitanks are particularly pronounced for viscous and difficult-to-clean materials like asphalt. 

3. Safety and Sealing:

Asphalt needs to remain hot during transportation. Flexitanks are typically made of multiple layers of heat-resistant, leak-proof materials to effectively prevent leaks and ensure safe transportation. Furthermore, flexitanks are stored inside containers, protecting them from external contamination and weather.

4. Flexibility and Compatibility:

Flexitanks fit into standard containers and can be transported via various modes, including road, rail, and sea. This offers great flexibility. This method is particularly well-suited for international trade or long-distance transport, seamlessly integrating into global logistics networks.

5. Reduced Environmental Impact:

Compared to steel drums or other fixed containers, flexitanks are easier to dispose of after use, and some of their materials are recyclable, reducing the environmental impact of waste.


Overall, flexitanks offer an efficient, economical, safe, and environmentally friendly solution for asphalt transportation, particularly for transporting liquid cargoes that require insulation and prevent solidification.
