FAQs

Q: What is Aseptic and why do I need it?

A:
Aseptic processing is the process by which a sterile (aseptic) product (typically food or pharmaceutical) is packaged in a sterile container in a way that maintains sterility. For many of our clients the process maintains product integrity and flavor.

Q: What is a closed loop system when using Black Forest shipping containers?

A:
The closed loop system is achieved by filling and dispensing product into and from a shipping container which is packaged under an inert atmosphere without exposing the product to outside air.

This results in maintaining product integrity and quality, as well as limiting or eliminating product exposure to product handlers. Using a shipping container with the attributes of a closed loop system may allow the shipping container to be used as a process vessel, too.

Q: Can you stack a Stainless Steel IBC?

A:
Most of our IBCs are stackable. The recommendation is stacking no more than 2 high when full or 3 high when empty.

Q: How can I clean or re-dedicate a stainless steel container?

A:
Containers may be re-dedicated for using different products through our re-passivation and re-electropolishing program – ask us how we can make your stainless steel containers 'new'.
