What is an IBC tank?
The IBC is a rigid container, generally 1000 litres, designed for the storage and transport of liquids or semi-solid substances. It consists of a plastic tank (often made of HDPE) protected by a metal or rigid plastic structure. It is placed on a pallet (made of wood, plastic or metal), making it easy to handle with a forklift or pallet truck.
The many uses of IBC tanks
IBC tanks are appreciated for their versatility. Here are some of their main uses:
- Storage of rainwater for watering or irrigation systems.
- Transport of liquid foodstuffs (with tanks certified for food contact).
- Containers for chemical or industrial products (paints, solvents, oils, etc.).
- Agricultural use: liquid fertilisers, plant protection products, water for animals.
- Recovery and management of waste water or grey water.
- DIY solutions: aquaponics, greenhouses, liquid compost, etc.
Why choose an IBC tank?
The advantages of IBC tanks are numerous, making them a very popular choice for professionals and private individuals alike:
- Large capacity (often 1000 L), ideal for volume storage.
- Space-saving thanks to their stackable cubic structure.
- Robustness: designed to last, they are impact, UV and chemical resistant.
