MSC introduces liquid cargo solutions for Europe, Asia, ME, Americas

The Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC) has become the first carrier to provide in-house liquid cargo solutions, directly supplying and fitting flexibags for customers worldwide. According to an official company statement, “MSC experts fit carefully selected flexibags at its depots prior to cargo pick-up, which removes the requirement for haulage to third-party fitting locations, reducing road miles, saving time and money, and helping customers to meet their sustainability needs. MSC liquid cargo solutions are already available at depot facilities in Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and the Americas,” The statement added that MSC works with dedicated suppliers of high-quality flexibags and with its customers to ensure each flexibag is tailored, selecting the right size and specifications according to the cargo’s needs. The statement added, “Flexibags allow customers to fill dry containers with up to 24,000 litres of non-hazardous liquid cargo—such as edible oils, wine, petroleum products, and chemicals—offering a safe and cost-effective alternative to other liquid bulk transportation methods, with less packaging than conventional ISO tanks.”
