Today, flexitanks are used to transport all non-hazardous liquids, which can be used for food application and industrial purposes.

Some liquids have certain properties which make them thicken when they are stored at low temperatures. If these liquids do thicken, the cargo contained in the flexitanks will take a long time to empty. This is exactly why Rishi FIBC has flexitanks installed with heating pads. They are put into use just before the flexitanks have to be emptied out and they basically work by emptying hot water or steam inside in order to increase temperature of the cargo material.
