Direct-use
Main advantages of Direct-Use IBC’s:
- Specialized assembly of our IBC’s.
-
Suitable for direct usage
- One IBC, one SKU

Flat-packed
Main advantages of Flat-Packed IBC’s:
Direct-use (assembled)
Direct-Use cardboard containers are delivered as a ready to use solution. You receive a fully assembled container with all the necessary components mounted to the container.
This reduces the need of handling the container, but it does require more storage space if the container need to be storage for a longer period of time
Flat-packed
Flat-Packed cardboard containers are delivered as a set of parts, which are packed in the most efficient way.
This reduces the need of storage space for the products for a longer period of time, but it does need more handling.
