Carbon Containers

Hoover offers reconditioned, carbon steel Liquitotes® and Tuff Tank IIs™.  Each piece of reconditioned equipment was previously part of Hoover’s industry leading rental fleet and has been cleaned and refurbished to meet industry standards.

 

Liquitote®, the leading metal IBC on the market, is the original intermediate bulk container (IBC) of the liquid handling industry. Hoover introduced this revolutionary concept over 50 years ago as an efficient and sensible alternative to the use of 55-gallon drums. More durable than standard 55-gallon drums, Liquitote® helps control risk to the environment. In fact, one 550-gallon Liquitote® replaces ten drums, thereby, minimizing the amount of handling required, which in turn, lowers the risk of liquid handling accidents. Liquitote® is a cost-effective, sound capital investment which can be amortized over its long life. They are refillable and durable. Many of the first models made over 40 years ago are still in use today.

 

The Liquitote® meets the following UN and DOT Qualifications for intermediate bulk containers: 

By combining a rotationally molded polyethylene bottle inside a steel, heavy-duty wire mesh cage, the Tuff Tank II™ remains one of the industry's most rugged and long-lasting IBCs.  The frame is designed to be safely hoisted using the lifting lugs and can be used in conjunction with cable slings.  The Tuff Tank II™ can transport your shipments of hazardous and corrosive liquids, chemicals, petrochemicals, and food liquids with complete confidence and environmental safety. 

 

The Tuff Tank II™ is a UN31HA1 composite IBC. The Tuff Tank II™ is approved for shipment of hazardous materials as authorized in 49 CFR 172.101, Table of Hazardous Materials and Special Provisions. The Tuff Tank II™ is built in accordance with IMO section 26 and can be used per Appendix 1 to section 26. NMFC Item 41024, Sub 3, Class 125.
