Kan-Haul, Inc. has been a leader in establishing the procedures for clean and safe transportation of liquid food products in bulk liquid tankers. There has been great progress over the past decade. The industry has come a long way from the days when the only requirement for the previous load was that the previous load had to be "water soluble".
Today there are not any specific government regulations or industry standards governing the type of liquid food grade products suitable or compatable as previous load transported by a tanker. This could allow wide interpretation of those products suitable for food grade transportation if it was not for the approved list of products suitable to be transported by food grade tankers. We are proud of the improvements that have been made possible by the joint cooperation of shipper, receiver, and bulk food carrier which has resulted in the following procedures:
Proper food handling in tankers is a three step process:
