Chep Intercon IBC

Chep has expanded its range of intermediate bulk containers (IBCs), adding a lighter, non-corrosive, 1000-litre, all-plastic container specifically designed for the food manufacturing sector. The Intercon is International Organization for Standardization (ISO) compatible, returnable, re-usable and recyclable and brings additional flexibility to Chep’s range of plastic bin solutions.

A foldable IBC, the Intercon can be used for both dry and liquid goods. Made from food-grade polypropylene, the lightweight unit is easy to handle, clean and more environmentally sustainable than non-re-usable alternatives.

CHEP worked closely with manufacturers to deliver a quality plastic product that meets the high standards set by the food industry and also withstands the rigours of the pooled environment. The Intercon is claimed to be 40% lighter than 1000 L composite alternatives, increasing payload capacity and reducing reverse logistics costs. It can be assembled by one person.

The food-grade polypropylene does not rot or become corroded and the unit’s unique design makes it suitable for both dry and liquid food products.

The IBC can handle bulk meat, juices, oil, mayonnaise, cereal, even vinegar - pretty much anything.

The IBCs feature increased ultraviolet protection to improve the integrity of the product.
