Our filling systems are designed to handle IBCs made of stainless steel or plastic with tubular steel frames and are suitable for filling liquids of various viscosities.

They are used in industries such as chemistry, petrochemicals, the food industry and the building materials sector in order to meet the diverse requirements of these sectors.

Suitable filling processes for IBC filling

Below bunghole filling

Specially developed for closed containers where the liquid is supplied through a bunghole. This method is ideal for non-foaming and uncomplicated liquids and ensures precise filling.

Above level filling

Best for non-foaming, no-fuss products. The liquid is filled above the liquid level, ideal for open and closed containers.

Below level filling

Ideal for foaming products or if explosive gases can be generated during filling. The liquid is filled below the surface to prevent foaming and electrostatic charges.

A-DOS-C

The A-DOS-C from GREIF-VELOX is a state-of-the-art automatic filling system, designed for a production rate of up to 34 IBCs per hour. The operation of the system is characterized by its advanced technologies and user-friendly design, which together aim to significantly increase the efficiency and precision of the IBC filling processes.

In the A-DOS-C filling system, IBCs are automatically guided to the filling station, where precise control mechanisms automatically center the bunghole to ensure optimal positioning for the filling process.

This process includes opening, inerting - to ensure safety when filling reactive or sensitive substances - and precise filling of the liquids. Finally, the IBCs are securely closed and prepared for further transport, with the entire process being carried out under the highest safety and quality standards.
