Cryogenic tank containers loaded and ready for delivery at an industrial storage facility

Vacuum-insulated cryogenic ISO tank containers for bulk transportation and temporary storage of liquefied gases.

DSW International manufactures cryogenic ISO tank containers for the safe transportation and temporary storage of liquefied gases, including liquid nitrogen (LIN), liquid oxygen (LOX), liquid argon (LAR), LCO₂, and LNG. Our vacuum-insulated tank containers are available in 20 ft and 40 ft configurations and can be engineered to applicable ISO, ASME, EN, and other international requirements.

For a detailed explanation of cryogenic tank design, insulation, pressure, tank types, and selection criteria, see our Cryogenic Tanks Guide.

Applications

These containers are essential for various industries, ensuring the safe and efficient handling of cryogenic gas transportation in a wide range of applications, such as industrial gas distribution; healthcare; food and beverage; energy and LNG; metalworking; welding; chemical processing; and manufacturing.

Cryogenic ISO Tank Types by Stored Gas

Different cryogenic liquids require specialized ISO tank designs to accommodate their unique boiling points, operating pressures, and transportation requirements. The table below compares the most common cryogenic ISO tank applications.

ISO Tank Type Typical Cargo Storage Temperature Typical Industries
LOX ISO Tank Liquid Oxygen (LOX) -183°C Healthcare, Steelmaking, Water Treatment
LIN ISO Tank Liquid Nitrogen (LIN) -196°C Food Processing, Electronics, Pharmaceuticals
LAR ISO Tank Liquid Argon (LAR) -186°C Welding, Metal Fabrication, Semiconductor Manufacturing
LNG ISO Tank Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) -162°C Energy, Marine Fuel, Remote Power Generation
LCO₂ ISO Tank Liquid Carbon Dioxide (LCO₂) -20°C to -30°C Food & Beverage, Chemical Processing, Fire Protection
Why Tank Selection Matters
Each cryogenic liquid has distinct temperature, pressure, and handling requirements. Choosing the correct ISO tank type helps maintain product quality, reduce boil-off losses, improve transportation efficiency, and ensure compliance with international safety standards.

Cryogenic ISO Tank Container Sizes

Cryogenic ISO tanks are available in standard and customized configurations for different gas transportation requirements.
Common options include:

  • 20 ft Cryogenic ISO Tanks – Standard intermodal tanks for bulk cryogenic gas transport and temporary storage.
  • 40 ft LNG ISO Tanks – Larger configurations for higher-capacity LNG transportation.
  • Custom Cryogenic Containers – Designed for specific gas types, capacities, pressures, connections, and transport requirements.
