The Best Intermediate Bulk Container (IBC) On The Market
There are many companies that manufacture intermediate bulk containers in a multitude of compositions, configurations and capacities. The Arena A330 Shipper™ is like none of them. The A330 Shipper™ is recognized by packaging professionals worldwide as the premier liquid IBC available on the market today.
The Arena A330 Shipper™ is specifically designed to handle the unique dynamic stresses associated with liquid loads during handling and transport. Liquid loads exert greater kinetic energy than dry bulk loads. When liquid products are moved or transported, sudden motions or abrupt stops can cause liquid loads to shift, placing greater stress on an IBC. Conventional intermediate bulk containers can fracture or break under such pressures but the A330 Shipper’s unique design absorbs and flexes in response to the stress demands with a greater strength-to-weight ratio than steel.

The Arena A330 Shipper™ represents a revolutionary break-through in liquid IBC’s. It is comprised of rugged, damage-resistant plastic composites that were developed for the automotive and aerospace industries and it has a greater strength-to-weight ratio than steel. The Arena A300 Shipper™ has a higher rating than dry bulk IBC’s and is able to handle loads up to 3,000 lbs. versus only 1,800 lbs. for conventional intermediate bulk containers.
The Less Space, Less Waste IBC
The Arena A330 Shipper™ delivers superior performance when measured against competitive containers such as 55-gallon drums, tank-style IBC’s and disposable intermediate bulk containers. With its unique knock-down design, disposable liquid liner and space-saving shape, the A330 Shipper™ maximizes space and reduces waste. It has been designed and tested to withstand the physical demands of rail car and tractor trailer transport with footprint dimensions that fit perfectly into trailers without additional dunnage.
The A330 Shipper™is the first choice of high value liquid product manufacturers because of its long track record of maximizing profit by reducing risk of damage or accidents. It is an environmentally green product because it is a reusable IBC that has a documented longer life span, another factor that contributes to its overall economic value.
More Sale Or Lease Options Than Other IBCs
Short term, long term or value-added rental programs (Trip Lease) are available that makes the Arena A330 Shipper™ the best choice in liquid intermediate bulk containers. Customers can manage and utilize their totes with optimum efficiency thanks to options that include logistics management, tracking, tote bag replacement and online reporting.
