As a reader of our blog, you are probably familiar with the many advantages of IBC tote systems, but are you realizing the true savings potential of your intermediate bulk containers? Here’s a 
quick breakdown of how stainless steel IBCs can help you save over standard drums.


IBC savings by the numbers:

  • 1 IBC consumes 33% less space than 6 drums
    • With a smaller container footprint, you’ll consume less warehouse and shipping space. 
  • 1 IBC holds the equivalent of 6 drums
    • Fewer containers holding a larger capacity saves you on moving, transportation and other related costs. What’s not to like?
  • 20+ years vs. -10 years
    • The shelf life of a stainless IBC can reach decades, while drums have a much shorter useable lifespan and higher disposal costs.
  • 55 vs. 350 gallon capacity
    • Need we say more? You’ll get 6x the storage volume with a single IBC!
