The application relates to shipping container systems that include a large multi-layered flexible container (“flexitank”) disposed inside a large rigid shipping container which has an open end with one or more doors capable of an open or closed position, and further including one or more bulkhead assemblies, one of the bulkhead assemblies interposed between the flexitank and the open end of the rigid container and/or the doors. In at least one specific embodiment, the bulkhead assembly includes a first brace disposed vertically along a portion of the first side wall inner surface; a second brace disposed vertically along a portion of the second side wall inner surface; and a bulkhead panel member extending horizontally between the first brace and the second brace. In other embodiments, bulkhead assemblies may utilize generally curved or “swept” bulkhead bars, which do not require vertical braces.
