An intermediate bulk container (IBC) is purpose built tank or container used to store or transport bulk fluid and dry materials. IBC containers are usually made of plastic, steel, or stainless steel and feature cages or bases designed for easy use with material handling vehicles such as forklifts. These containers are commonly used to store a range of materials, including loose components, powdered goods, and liquid soap, as well as food stuffs and hazardous fluids or solids. The advantages of using IBC containers include low transit costs, efficient space utilization during transit or storage, and good compatibility with a range of filling and discharge systems. The intermediate bulk container is used to store and transport a broad range of dry and fluid materials, including hazardous or dangerous goods where approved container types are used. Common intermediate bulk container-stored goods include chemicals and adhesives, liquid soaps, and loose components, as well as sugar and rice. As a matter of fact, IBC containers are suitable for most free-flowing materials. Fluid cargos, particularly hazardous materials, are typically stored and transported in double-walled containers designed to contain spills. The Indian economy is growing and so is the bulk packaging segment of country’s packaging industry. The packaging industry in India has been registering a constant growth rate of 15%. As growth rides on increased industrial production and international trade, demands on bulk package have become more intense and sophisticated. The Indian bulk packaging sector primarily targets meeting the needs of industrial production and bulk wholesale distribution. It is also an essential element of transitional and transport packaging of even retail packs. Price range of IBC’s in India is Rs. 6,000 – Rs. 14,000 and their present usage is around 10,000 units valued at about Rs. 10 crores. Due to demand growth, it is a good project for entrepreneurs to invest. ? Few Indian Major Players are as under:- Hoysala Blow Moulders (India) Ltd. Jumbo Bag Ltd. K R Foods Ltd. Rasik Plast Ltd.
