Steel drums are heavy-duty cylindrical containers primarily used for storing and transporting liquids, chemicals, and hazardous materials. The standard 55-gallon open-head and tight-head designs meet UN/DOT transportation requirements. Reconditioned drums are cleaned, tested, and re-certified for various industrial applications.
Standard in chemical manufacturing, petroleum storage, paint and coatings, pharmaceutical production, and hazardous waste containment. Open-head drums suit solid and semi-solid materials; tight-head drums are designed for liquids. Used for both storage and intermodal transport across rail, truck, and ocean freight.
Steel is one of the most recycled materials on earth, and reconditioning drums for reuse avoids the energy-intensive process of manufacturing new steel containers. Each reconditioned drum saves approximately 75% of the energy required to produce a new one, while maintaining the same structural and safety standards.
