Description
The HGS is a reusable composite IBC designed primarily for the transportation and storage of dangerous goods.
The HGS liner is rotationally moulded in natural UV stabilised linear medium density polyethylene. The polymer has strong resistance to industrial wear and tear, corrosion and chemical attack.
A galvanised mild steel frame with 3mm thick sheet sides protects the liner. The galvanising provides excellent resistance to the elements, while the sheet provides extra strength to the frame and protection against UV light for the bottle. The units are interstackable for loading and space saving and have integral four way fork truck entry with anti-tilts to improve handling efficiency.
The outlet is fitted with a lockable 50mm diameter GRPP² tamper evident ball valve. The outlet is fitted throughout with EPDM³ seals and terminates in a 38mm integral camlock adapter complete with a dustcap. The dustcap, which acts as a secondary closure, is attached via a cable to a valve support box which provides greater protection and support to the valve.
