HDPE DRUMS (200L)

In India the consumer packing is undergoing a dramatic change in recent past. In many Industries the plastic containers are replacing conventional metal containers and glass containers because of their comparatively better properties and ease of handling and transportation. HDPE Drums & Barrels are the important Packaging Material for Food Products, Chemicals, solvents Pharmaceuticals Pesticide, etc. Small size plastic containers are used for packing of drugs, pharmaceuticals, insecticides, food items etc. The plastic blow molded containers are made from HDPE (High-density polyethylene), LDPE (Low- density polyethylene), PP (Polypropylene) etc. Blow molded plastic containers are finding great demand in modern era replacing the traditional Metal / Non Metal and Glass containers throughout the world. With latest trends in Blow Molding technology and advanced machinery and National and International standards molds and dies, many types of packaging containers are manufactured with accurate tolerance and fine qua
lity to suit the requirement of each and every product manufacturing. These products includes Pet bottles, Dropper bottles, Upper Handle bottles, Open top drums, wide mouth drums, Narrow mouth drums, Barrels, Jerry Cans & Carboys, Square Jars, Round Jars, Rib Jars, Thin walled food packaging containers etc. They are of different types and designs that are manufactured to cater the need of packaging. With high quality raw materials procurement, blow molded articles and containers are manufactured with superior quality associated with convenient shapes and sizes, Strong and Sturdy construction, Compact designs, Compatibility, Safe to use etc. As there is very good demand for plastic containers of various sizes and shapes and quality to meet the requirement of one and all.

In the early 1900s, wooden barrels gave way to a new more durable and easily machined material: Steel. Steel barrels were stronger, safer for use in transport and able to be manufactured on an assembly line with much less labor than wooden barrels. The steel drum is still widely used for liquid storage and transportation to this day.

More advanced technology and manufacturing practices in the late 1960s allowed for another iteration of the barrel to come about: the plastic barrel. Plastic barrels are made from high density, high molecular weight polyethylene (HDPE).

Polyethylene is an excellent material because it is inert and resistant to high or low pH contents. As foodies know, the acidity of food products can be high or low. Some materials, including food products, are caustic and can even break down steel. Have you ever left tinfoil over tomato sauce for an extended period of time? The undesirable result is a case in point: the sauce eats right through metal.

The use of high density polyethylene (HDPE) as opposed to low density (LDPE) allowed for barrels to be created completely from polyethylene, as opposed to using a plastic liner in a steel drum.

Plastic drums are manufactured through a process called blow molding. This process allows for various shapes to be created with no seams on the inside. Barrels are still molded in a cylindrical shape to allow for rolling and handling using the same tools as a steel drum. The round shape lacks weak corners (corners are vulnerable to cracking with impact and exposure). The added benefit of a seamless design is that it prevents buildup of bacteria.

It is intended to prepare a Feasibility Report to install a HDPE Drums (200 L) production facility with a capacity of 3000TPA as a Green Field Project.
