VTG Tanktainer invests in 1,300 tank containers

VTG Tanktainer GmbH is launching a new project which has seen 1,300 tank containers built and delivered since May this year. Managing Director of VTG Tanktainer GmbH, Heike Clausen said: “With this new build program, we’re reacting to the current market situation and simultaneously prepare for the future.”

To satisfy the various technical requirements of each customer quickly and flexibly, the company is producing tank containers which conform to high-quality unit specifications. VTG Tanktainer will, therefore, satisfy the expected market, customer and safety requirements in the coming years.

About 1,000 standard T11 20’ tank containers were built by Chinese company Singamas, a worldwide leading supplier of tank containers.  These new-builds will be primarily used to meet the demands of the Asia market, where market demand remains high. VTG has also commissioned the construction tank containers in South Africa and Belgium which, for example, are fitted with integrated surge plates or electric heating or which would allow the transportation of hydrogen peroxide.

Altogether, VTG has invested around €18 million in the new-build program. This measure demonstrates the company’s commitment to safety and quality: Heike said: “Our customers are not the only ones who expect state-of-the-art equipment. We have of course made it our mission to transport highly sensitive goods of this sort in the safest way possible. That’s where our competence lies.”
