Plastic barrels and drums for liquids and solids
If something leaks in the household, a cleaning cloth is usually enough to put things right. The situation is different when it comes to liquids in warehouses. If liquids leak in an industrial environment, this can soon result to serious safety and environmental problems. That’s why choosing the right container is crucial. Our plastic drums and barrels will give you both the safety and the versatility you need. These containers are made from robust, chemical resistant materials and are ideal for storing and transporting hazardous substances such as chemicals, oil or fuel. Plastic drums are particularly low in maintenance, durable and easy to clean, making them a practical choice in any warehouse.
The drums and barrels in our range provide you with protection from leaks and minimise the risk of downtime in your workshop. They are not only suitable for liquids, but also for solids such as powders and granulates, which makes them particularly versatile.
Stackable, robust and versatile – our plastic drums
Plastic drums and barrels have a special shape that makes them particularly practical. The round shape of the middle makes it easy to move the drums by rolling them. However, rolling is not always recommended when handling liquids in industrial environments. That’s why we also offer drums with practical handles for making easy work of drum handling. What’s more, many of our models come as stackable drums, which enables space saving storage.
Our drums feature practical wide neck openings that make filling and cleaning much easier. Special drain taps make it safer and more efficient to refill liquids. These functions are particularly important in areas where precision and cleanliness play a major role, such as in the food and chemical industries. We also offer plastic drums with lids for securely sealing materials in them.
Our plastic drums and barrels are made of hardwearing materials that are not only resistant to chemicals, but that also come as models that are temperature resistant and safe for use with foodstuffs. These characteristics make them highly versatile, whether they are used in food processing, the chemical industry or in storage facilities. To ensure that you are safeguarded against all eventualities when handling hazardous goods, you can obtain drum sumps in many different sizes, along with absorbent agents, from our shop.
Do you have any more questions? You can obtain valuable information on handling hazardous goods, safe filling with hand pumps and sump trays made of glass fibre reinforced plastic in our purchasing guides or from us personally.
