ISO Tank Containers for Australia and International Transport

Australia is an important market for bulk logistics, chemical transport, food-grade liquids,
mining-related products, industrial fluids and international trade. ISO tank containers are
widely used because they are safe, reusable and suitable for intermodal transport by sea,
road and rail.

Holland Tank Service helps customers source and prepare ISO tank containers for international
use. We can advise on tank type, capacity, technical condition, certification and practical
requirements before a container is shipped or put back into operation.

Types of ISO Tank Containers Available

ISO tank containers are built according to international standards and are designed for the
safe transport and storage of hazardous and non-hazardous products. The right tank container
depends on the cargo, transport route, safety requirements and technical specifications.

Holland Tank Service can help with different types of tank containers, including:

• standard ISO tank containers for bulk liquids;
• chemical tank containers;
• food-grade tank containers;
• IMO tank containers for hazardous and non-hazardous substances;
• swap body tanks;
• gas tanks;
• silo tanks for dry bulk cargo;
• tank containers with heating or cooling systems;
• specialist containers for industrial applications.

Common considerations include tank capacity, product compatibility, insulation, steam
heating, electrical heating, valve configuration, manlid type, pressure rating and
certification.

Tank Container Dimensions and Capacity

A standard ISO tank container is usually 20ft long and is designed to fit within the
international container transport system. Depending on the product and tank specification,
capacity is often between approximately 14,000 and 27,000 litres.

For long-distance transport to or from Australia, the right technical specification is
especially important. Product density, temperature control, filling level, route, cleaning
requirements and safety documentation can all influence which tank container is suitable.

Inspection, Repair and Technical Preparation

Before a tank container is shipped internationally, it should be safe, compliant and suitable
for the intended cargo. Holland Tank Service has extensive experience with inspection,
estimation, repair, renovation and modification of tank containers and bulk containers.

Our Rotterdam Botlek depot can support customers with technical preparation before a
container is delivered, sold, exported or returned to service. This may include inspection,
damage assessment, replacement of parts, repair work, testing, renovation or practical
modifications.

Delivery and Export to Australia

Through our international network, we can support tank container requests involving
Australia and other overseas destinations. Delivery options depend on container availability,
required technical preparation, shipping arrangements, documentation and the final location.

Because Australia is a long-distance destination, we recommend sharing as much practical
information as possible when requesting a quote. This helps us advise on the right tank
container and avoid delays during preparation, shipment or handover.

Useful information to include in your request:

• required tank type or product to be transported;
• preferred capacity or container size;
• new, used, rental or sale requirement;
• delivery location or port in Australia;
• required certification or documentation;
