Ton Container
Ton containers are bulk containers, but like IBCs are designed for mechanical handling and can be found in various modes of transportation and different facility storage and use.. Ton containers are large, 2,000-pound capacity containers that are designed to transport liquefied gases such as chlorine, sulfur dioxide, and phosgene. They are approximately 3 ft. in diameter and 8 ft. long with concave ends or heads that have the valves and pressure relief devices built into the head wall. They can be loaded onto flat beds using forklifts and secured for shipment.
