Tuff Tank IBC
By combining a rotationally molded polyethylene bottle and a heavy-duty wire mesh cage, the Tuff Tank IBC remains one of the industry's most rugged and long-lasting Intermediate Bulk Container for transporting or storing hazardous liquids. Hoover has taken this design and modified it to be perfectly suited for the harsh environments of the offshore industry. The result is the Tuff Tank IBC. This tote tank can easily withstand harsh, offshore environmental factors such as salt spray, chemical exposure, and falling objects. The frame is designed to be safely hoisted using the lifting lugs and can be used in conjunction with cable slings. The Tuff Tank can transport your shipments of hazardous and corrosive liquids, chemicals, petrochemicals, and food liquids with complete confidence and environmental safety.
