TANKS ABOUND The Almar Container Group is supplying its ISOtainers to Dynamic Brands, iSolvents and AECI
Container supplier Almar Container Group’s ISO Tanks are internationally approved, meet global safety standards, and are inspected by registered surveyors.
The tanks go through a series of washes and leak detection tests after every use. Thereafter certificates are issued stating they are clean and fit for loading product, which makes them the preferred storage and transportation solution for flammable products.
ISO Tanks, also known as ISOtainers, are multimodal containers used for the storage and transportation of bulk liquids such as alcoholic beverages, ethanol, liquid waste, food products, hydrogen peroxide, mining chemicals, nitric acid, oils, resins, solvents and sulphuric acid.
Almar is leasing 10 ISO Tanks to beverage manufacturer and distributor Dynamic Brands, based in the Eastern Cape.
The first five ISO Tanks were delivered in December 2020 and, according to Dynamic Brands operational financial manager Guido Muller, as Dynamic Brands needed bulk storage as quickly as possible, ISO Tanks were the ideal solution.
Dynamic Brands have recently ordered an additional five ISO Tanks and now have storage capacity for over 260 000 ℓ of syrup.
Further, chemical wholesaler iSolvents has also recently hired ISOtainers from Almar.
These tanks have the capacity to carry over 26 000 ℓ of liquid, which has significant advantages over traditional 44 gallon drums or immediate bulk containers, which require substantial manpower to unload, fill, seal and load for transportation and, depending on the liquid being stored, are often single-use.
Established in 2001, iSolvents is an approved supplier of high-quality chemicals and manufactured products. They provide essential chemicals and ingredients which form the basic building blocks of their customers’ final product. iSolvents also produces a range of high-quality off-the-shelf products which can be delivered directly to the customer.
Almar also supplies chemicals company AECI with ISOtainers for the storage of its liquid chemicals used in the mining industry.
According to AECI Mining Chemicals division representative Subashni Pillay, ISO Tanks are the ideal transport and storage solution for its bulk liquids.
“The flexible lease options work perfectly for our business, and we enjoy simple, reliable, and fast service from the Almar team,” says Pillay.
As Africa’s leader in the global mining industry, AECI Mining Chemicals develops, manufactures, supplies and supports a range of polymeric emulsifier and coating technologies for explosives and fertiliser value-add, reagents for ore beneficiation processes that involve flotation technologies, as well as solutions for solid-liquid separation and tailings management.
