Benefits of Using IBC Totes for Liquid Storage

An intermediate bulk container (IBC), or IBC tote, is a reusable plastic bottle held in a steel cage on a pallet, built to store, move and dispense bulk liquids with a forklift. We carry two rebottled IBC totes, 275 and 330 gallons. Each has a new, FDA-compliant, UV-stabilized high-density polyethylene (HDPE) bottle inside a reconditioned galvanized steel cage and pallet, and both stack for storage and transport. Compare them on our IBC Totes page.

IBC Totes Details

Choose by height and volume. Both totes share the same 47-1/4" x 39-1/4" footprint; the 330 gallon tote has a taller bottle, so you get more volume in the same floor or truck space, while the 275 gallon tote suits lower clearances and smaller batches. Both have a fill cap on top, a bottom ball valve for dispensing and 4-way forklift entry.

Rebottled means the inner HDPE bottle is new while the galvanized steel cage and pallet are reconditioned and reused. You get a new product contact surface and less waste than a fully new tote. The totes carry a UN marking for transporting regulated liquids, and they are not meant for gasoline, diesel or other flammable fuels. To keep a tote from freezing in winter, add a Powerblanket IBC Tote Heater.

With that being said, safety is paramount when handling hazardous materials. IBC totes comply with international standards and regulations, ensuring safe storage and transport of dangerous goods. Features such as leak-proof valves and secure lids prevent spills and contamination, protecting both personnel and the environment.

How to Maintain and Clean IBC Totes

Regular maintenance and cleaning can significantly extend the life and performance of your IBC totes:

• Cleaning: Use appropriate cleaning solutions based on the substance previously stored in the IBC totes. For chemical residues, select a solution that neutralizes the specific chemicals. For food storage, use food-safe cleaning agents to ensure hygiene and safety. Proper cleaning prevents cross-contamination and maintains the integrity of the stored substances.
• Inspection: Regularly inspect your IBC totes for any signs of damage or wear. Check for cracks, leaks, or weakened areas in the HDPE bottle or the steel cage. Promptly replace damaged parts or totes to avoid compromising the safety and efficiency of your storage system. Routine inspections help identify potential issues before they escalate, ensuring continuous safe use.
• Storage: Store your IBC totes in a clean, dry place to prevent contamination and physical damage. Ensure the storage area is free from debris and sharp objects that could puncture or damage the totes. Proper storage conditions preserve the quality and durability of the IBC totes, making them ready for reuse when needed.
