Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBCs), also known as tote tanks, are an eco-friendly alternative to manufacturers looking to green their processes.  One 350-gallon stainless steel tote tank has more capacity than six drums, meaning fewer resources are used to transport a higher volume of product.

Reusable packaging, such as a tote tank, makes a positive impact on the environment, as well as the economy, by reducing labor, shipping and waste disposal costs.

Stainless steel tote tanks benefit the environment in several ways:

1. Returnable tote tanks generate less waste by eliminating the disposal of pallets and drums.
2. Tote tanks are completely drainable, creating virtually less product waste.
3. The fewer the overall required containers, the lower the freight cost and fuel consumption, making tote tanks more efficient.
4. Filling faster than drums, tote tanks save money and energy by reducing overall operating costs.
5. Tote tanks can be fully recovered and reprocessed into other useful products at the end of their service life.

Since renting stainless steel tote tanks is less expensive than purchasing, they can help your company's bottom line by reducing general expenses, labor costs, product loss and overall packaging costs.
