Flexitanks Market Size, Share, Trends and Forecast Report

[sara James]

The global Flexitanks Market size is expected to reach USD 3.31 billion by 2028, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. It is expected to expand at a CAGR of 21.0% from 2020 to 2028. Some of the key players in this industry are Qingdao BLT Packing Industrial Co., Ltd. (BLT), Braid Logistics UK Ltd., Bulk Liquid Solutions Pvt. Ltd., Büscherhoff Packaging Solutions GmbH, Environmental Packaging Technologies, Inc. The rising global trade of various liquid food products, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and industrial products is principally augmenting the market growth.

Lower costs associated with flexitanks compared to conventional bulk liquid transport containers, such as ISO containers, IBCs, drums, and barrels, are likely to propel their demand. Furthermore, flexitanks carry higher payloads than IBCs and drums, which prove them to be a more economical means of bulk transportation.

A majority of the flexitanks are designed for single-use, which reduces the risk of packed product contamination. This superior protection against contamination makes them an ideal bulk packaging choice for food-grade liquids and pharmaceuticals. In addition, flexitanks do not require the forklift or other mechanism, which makes loading and unloading much faster. The aforementioned factors are attracting several application industries.

Low cost as compared to multi-trip flexitanks, wide availability, and lower risk of contamination are the key factors responsible for the high adoption of single-trip products. However, increasing sustainability trend is likely to restrain the growth of the single-trip flexitanks. Moreover, increasing demand for packaged liquid products, such as juices, and wines and spirits, on account of the rising penetration of the organized retail sector and substantial growth of the middle-class population, especially in emerging countries like China and India, is expected to fuel the market growth.
