Intermodal 407 Tank Containers

Designed for use within North America, EXSIF’s unique Intermodal 407 tank container provides full intermodal opportunities – road, rail, sea, and barge. The tank’s capacity, specification and intermodal capability make it a cost-effective alternative to transporting liquid products in the more expensive DOT 407 tank trucks.

This 40’ tank container, has dimensions and valve terminations identical to a standard tank truck. It is suitable and approved for a wide range of chemical and liquid cargoes. The standard configuration comes fitted with ground level actuated valves, dual steam heating facilities – enabling glycol heating during transport and steam heating at destination. The tank’s overall dimensions, when used in conjunction with a purpose built 40’ chassis, ensure compatibility with all standard loading and cleaning racks.
