IBC Mixers & Blenders

Our range of IBC mixers and blenders features the IBC Batch Blender and the Laboratory Blender:


IBC Batch Blender: the IBC batch blender has been designed and manufactured to tumble blend powders in our range of IBC containers. The process involves the hydraulic clamping of IBC’s in position followed by the clamp of the cone valve in place. The IBC is tumbled end over end on an asymmetric axis for blending and the cone valve helps disperse contents and reach homogenous blending.


Laboratory Blenders: our laboratory blenders are designed for the blending of powders in small IBC’s and feature blender and controls, IBC’s, support frames and an IBC handler if necessary.
