Cost-effective storage compared to fixed storage tanks
Cost-effective for transport compared to road tankers
ISO tank containers are predominately manufactured from 316 or 304 stainless steel, for ease of cleaning

Self bunded tank containers from Container Options have many years of design and experience behind them resulting in beneficial features, including:

Sloped floors to low point for drainage and water management

Roof designs that allow water run off with no gutters or ponding points
Structural components made from 350Mpa weathering steel for strength and corrosion-resistance
Fill and suction points that enter through the roof, not the wall, improving safe fill levels and eliminating the most common corrosion point in many containerised designs
Can be transported empty as a standard CSC registered container
Factory customisation is readily available with compartments, sumps, dewatering tubes, epoxy linings, floating suctions and full stainless internals to suit a wide variety of fuels, oils and related chemicals

Half height and bulk containers

Container Options supplies specialised dry cargo containers domestically and internationally.

The company’s range of specialised dry cargo containers is broad, with a large number of configurations and adaptations to fit shipping and operational requirements.

Half height containers are designed to transport heavy products, such as mineral sands and concentrates. Numerous variations can be supplied to suit the products to be transported, e.g. soft or hard-top removable roofs, drop down ramps and removable door headers for easy access for loading and un-loading.

Bulk containers are designed to transport bulk powder or granular products. Loading hatches are generally fitted on the roof, which allows loading via silo. Either the door and/or front wall hatches can be fitted for un-loading. The flat steel internal walls and floor assist with discharge and reduce the amount of product hang up.
