PRODUCT FEATURES
Are these 1/2 gallon buckets appropriate for ingredient prep and short-term food storage?
Absolutely. With a true 64 oz (0.5 gal) capacity, 34-mil wall thickness, and a pry-off design, these round HDPE buckets are an excellent choice for portioning sauces, brines, dressings, dry ingredients, and other food products in commercial kitchens, commissaries, and processing plants.
Are these 64 oz buckets food-safe and BPA-free?
Yes. They are molded from FDA-compliant, BPA-free high-density polyethylene (HDPE), making them safe for direct food contact in processing, storage, and distribution applications.
What temperature range can these food-grade buckets tolerate?
The HDPE construction is rated for continuous use from ‑5 °F (-20.5 °C) up to 160 °F (71 °C). They perform well in blast chillers, refrigerators, and ambient environments but are not recommended for hot-fill processes above 160 °F or for microwave use.
Can these plastic buckets be stored in a freezer?
Yes. They maintain structural integrity down to ‑5 °F, making them suitable for frozen foods, ice cream bases, and other cold-chain items.
Are these buckets suitable for hot liquids or high-temperature cleaning?
They can handle contents up to 160 °F; however, prolonged exposure above that point or direct steam sanitation is not advised. For hot-fill products over 160 °F, choose a container specifically rated for higher temperatures.
How many buckets come in a case and how are they packed?
Each case contains 150 buckets, nested for efficient shipping. Eight cases fit per layer with one full layer per pallet, maximizing warehouse space.
Do the buckets come with handles and lids?
Each bucket is supplied with a sturdy plastic swing handle for easy carrying. Lids are sold separately; order lid code L514PR for a matching pry-off lid with a positive seal.
Are these white HDPE buckets recyclable after use?
Yes. They are manufactured from #2 HDPE, one of the most widely recycled plastics in municipal programs, supporting waste-reduction and sustainability goals.
