Hoover Materials Handling Group

Company Description

THE HOOVER ADVANTAGE Hoover Materials Handling Group has been manufacturing liquid handling solutions since 1911. A leader in liquid handling solutions, Hoover is committed to quality. Hoover introduced the original intermediate bulk container (IBC) – the Liquitote® - to the liquid handling industry over 50 years ago. MATERIALS Hoover tanks are made of either 304 stainless steel, carbon steel, galvanized steel, or polyethylene. The majority of Hoover’s steel valve options are made of 316 stainless steel. Hoover’s stainless steel IBCs are constructed from durable, 304 stainless steel. Hoover uses carbon steel to construct an IBC that is a lighter and less expensive alternative to Hoover Materials Handling Group stainless steel IBC. Galvanized steel is used for Hoover containers and container frames that are utilized in very harsh and corrosive environments (typically offshore). Hoover’s roto-moulded containers such as the Polycone 45 and the APR® are constructed of lightweight and durable polyethylene.
