Benefits
Through its former incarnations of IFF, IBC and UBC, InterBulk Group were responsible for the conceptualisation of the 30ft bag in box market for polymers and food grade powders and granules.
The benefits of the concept are clear:
1. Customers pay for one way trip - provides a clear cost advantage over tankcontainers and roadtankers where an empty return is common.
2. Maximum efficiency of payload - In Europe, where permitted weight limits are 40-44 tonnes, the 30ft container offers optimum payloads with respect to cab and trailer weight.
3. Lower emissions and reduce your companies carbon footprint with sustainable intermodal logistics. Rail and Sea logistics are less polluting modes compared to road. By utilising intermodal logistics, companies can significantly lower their emissions whilst improving efficiency.
4. Allow logistics to create a moving pipeline and lower inventory and silo storage - with a box container fleet close to 15,000 units, we are the biggest dry bulk logistics company in Europe - we can hold stock close to your customers site for JIT deliveries.
