What are the advantages of foldable steel IBCs compared to plastic IBCs?
Foldable steel IBCs offer superior durability, chemical resistance, fire resistance, and a longer service life. Their collapsible design allows for efficient return transport, a benefit that rigid plastic IBCs typically do not provide.
What is the difference between foldable IBCs with and without lids?
Models with lids protect the contents during storage and transport, while open-top versions allow easier filling and emptying, especially in manual or semi-automated processes.
What is the advantage of foldable steel pallet boxes with separate walls?
Foldable steel IBCs with separate walls are commonly used in the chemical industry. The walls are fixed individually to the base, allowing the container to be partially assembled. With only three walls installed, the container can already be loaded (“walk-in” design), reducing back and neck strain during manual loading.
Can foldable IBC containers be stacked?
Yes. Foldable steel IBCs are designed for stacking 1+1 when full, and up to 1+9 when collapsed, depending on the model and design.
