As global trade in food-grade and specialty liquids continues to expand, maintaining product quality during transportation has become more important than ever. For oxygen-sensitive products such as wine, fruit juice concentrates, edible oils, food additives, and certain specialty chemicals, exposure to oxygen during transit can lead to oxidation, flavor loss, quality deterioration, and reduced shelf life.

To address these challenges, more shippers are turning to Oxygen-Barrier Flexitanks.

Unlike standard flexitanks, Oxygen-Barrier Flexitanks incorporate an advanced EVOH (Ethylene Vinyl Alcohol) barrier layer within the multi-layer film structure. This high-barrier technology significantly reduces oxygen permeation, helping maintain a stable environment inside the flexitank throughout long-distance transportation.

The benefits are clear:

l  Reduced risk of oxidation and product degradation

l  Better preservation of flavor, aroma, and freshness

l  Improved product stability during long-haul shipping

l  Greater confidence in cargo quality upon arrival

Oxygen-Barrier Flexitanks are particularly suitable for products that require enhanced protection throughout the supply chain.

Typical Applications

l  Wine

As bulk wine transportation and destination bottling become increasingly common, oxygen-barrier technology helps preserve the original characteristics and flavor profile of the wine during international transport.

l  Fruit Juice Concentrates

By limiting oxygen exposure, barrier flexitanks help maintain color, taste, and nutritional value throughout the journey.

l  Edible Oils

Premium edible oils benefit from enhanced protection against oxidation, helping maintain freshness and product quality.

l  Food Ingredients & Specialty Liquids

Many food additives, flavorings, and specialty liquid products require additional oxygen protection to ensure consistent quality.

In addition to superior cargo protection, Oxygen-Barrier Flexitanks retain the key advantages of conventional flexitanks, including loading capacities of up to 26,000 liters, lower logistics costs compared with drums and IBCs, efficient loading and unloading, and reduced packaging waste.

At Uni Flexitank, our Oxygen-Barrier Flexitanks are engineered with advanced multi-layer barrier technology to meet the growing demands of global liquid logistics. By combining high-capacity bulk transportation with enhanced oxygen protection, they help customers reduce costs while safeguarding product quality from origin to destination.
