• Tablet handling - did you know that a single IBC will do the same job as multiple drums? IBCs also provide fast, automated filling capabilities.
• API - Cone Valve IBCs ensure that solvent rich, 'wet cake' solids are handled with care between the centrifuge and drying processes, which means your product does not degrade at any stage of the manufacturing process.
