FAQs

Our products have been developed to cope with extreme weather conditions. Please navigate to specific product pages for more information.

Yes, SDS’s are available for all products. These are reviewed and updated regularly, and all meet the Global Harmonized Systems (GHS). Contact us for more information.

Typically, dust control and erosion control products can last between 6-12 months. However, this depends on various factors such as vehicle traffic, weather conditions, soil type, location, etc. Talk to one of GRT’s engineers to determine the best solution for your application.

Yes, we do. GRT’s engineers have designed pumps, dosing stations and equipment that make applying the GRT products easier and more accurate. 

GRT products do expand and shrink in volume with temperature changes. Liquids that are filled at 15oC can expand around 0.3% if left out in the sun on a hot day. A temperature increase of 30oC can change the fill level from 1,000 litres to 1,030 litres or more.

If significant changes in ambient conditions are expected, then fillers and end-users should specify IBC’s with a top lid insert that allows pressure compensation to avoid over pressuring when heating or tank contraction during cooling. Read more

Water has a specific gravity of 1. Most of our film-forming polymers (for example – GRT7000, GRT: Enviro-Binder) are pretty close to this. Our LCP technologies (for example GRT: Haul-Loc, GRT: Soil-Loc, and GRT: DC Binder) are significantly heavier. 1000L is about 1100kg. On the other hand, GRT: Wet-Loc is much lighter; so much so that a full IBC is only about 830kg.

So the unit of measurement is varied based on this and therefore the pricing.

Yes, you can pick it up from the warehouse and/or arrange your own freight. Alternatively, we can get a competitive rate for you.

GRT products are typically sold at a price per IBC. Products listed per litre are sold in 1,000L per IBC as they have a specific gravity close to or equal to 1. Whereas, products listed per kg have a higher specific gravity (and are therefore heavier – more dense), and can only be sold as a maximum of 950L/IBC.

Delivery charges depend on location and the situation at the receiver’s end. However, our experienced logistics team can overcome any challenges that may arise. Most products are typically dispatched within 2-3 business days.

GRT can provide tracking advice on confirmed orders.

No. GST is not applicable on Australian exports.

No. Export prices exclude freight. Shipments comprise 18 IBC’s for each 20 GP containers (unless otherwise varied by GRT).

IBC stands for Intermediate Bulk Container.
GRT’s IBCs are sourced from Schütz Australia ECOBULK. The inner tanks of the Schütz Australia ECOBULK range of IBCs are embossed with 100 litre graduation marks up to the nominal capacity of 1,000 litres. These markings are indicative only and are present to allow end-users to estimate the contents remaining in an unpigmented IBC. Some variation is found due to the variable shrinkage rates of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) during the moulding process and also after filling, there can be some “bulging” of the steel cage which can affect the accuracy of the fill marks.

Typically, packaging companies will fill containers with liquid products based on weight as the density or specific gravity of liquids changes with temperature. A fill quantity based on weight can be converted to volume at a standard ambient temperature and pressure. Read more.

To ensure the Schütz IBC’s meet the requirements of the Australian Code for the Transport of Dangerous Goods by road or rail, 7th Edition (ADG7), enough free space or “ullage” must be left to allow for thermal expansion up to 50oC. Liquids that are filled at 15oC can expand around 0.3% if left out in the sun on a hot day. A temperature increase of 30oC can change the fill level from 1,000 litres to 1,030 litres or more.

Therefore, the inner tanks of IBC’s have a brim-full capacity of approximately 1,070 litres. If filled to the nominal capacity of 1,000 litres, this then allows sufficient free space for liquid to expand in conditions with high ambient temperature.

If significant changes in ambient conditions are expected, then fillers and end-users should specify IBC’s with a top lid insert that allows pressure compensation to avoid over pressuring when heating or tank contraction during cooling. Read more.
