Flexitanks on a roll

In August 2023, the US’s leading Gulf coast port of Houston handled 20% fewer containers than in the same month of 2022. A total 307,624 TEU was processed.

Last year was a bumper one for the production of tank containers, but now an oversupply looms.

Bulk wine shipments are on the rise and flexitanks are in a good position to play a bigger role in this trade.

The tank container industry is going on the offensive in terms of defending its patch, with flexitanks and ocean carriers in its sights.
