Frequently Asked Questions
What is the capacity of a Schutz IBC container?
A standard Schutz container has a capacity of 1000 litres (or 275 gallons), making it ideal for bulk liquid storage while remaining manageable for transport and handling.
Can Schutz IBCs be stacked?
Yes, Schutz IBCs are designed to be stacked when used with appropriate support systems such as a double IBC spill pallet. When filled, they should only be stacked according to manufacturer’s guidelines to ensure safety.
What makes an IBC safe for food and drinking water?
