PRODUCT FEATURES
Are these 2/3-gallon buckets suitable for packing deli salads, soups, or specialty sauces?
Yes, these 85 oz polypropylene (PP) containers are ideal for a wide range of food applications—including deli salads, hot soups, sauces, and dry ingredients. Their sturdy construction, convenient plastic swing handle, and food-contact-safe resin make them perfect for foodservice kitchens, commissaries, and retail grab-and-go programs.
Are these 85-oz containers safe for direct food contact?
Absolutely. The buckets are injection-molded from BPA-free, food-grade PP resin that is FDA-compliant for direct contact with foods and beverages, so you can confidently use them for storage, processing, or distribution of edible products.
What temperature range can these food-grade buckets withstand?
These PP buckets tolerate temperatures from about 20 °F (-6 °C) up to 180 °F (82 °C). They are excellent for room-temperature and hot-fill products up to 180 °F but are not intended for retort processing, pressure canning, or blast-freezing environments below 20 °F.
Can these BPA-free buckets be used in freezer applications?
They perform well in standard freezers and walk-ins down to 20 °F, making them suitable for short-term frozen storage. For ultra-cold or deep-freeze conditions below 0 °F, a high-impact HDPE container would be recommended instead.
Are these food-grade buckets suitable for hot-fill or reheating foods?
Yes, polypropylene’s higher heat tolerance allows hot-fill products up to 180 °F. While the material itself is microwave-safe, always remove or vent the lid to avoid pressure build-up before reheating.
How many buckets come in a case?
Each master case contains 200 buckets, providing ample supply for high-volume production, co-packing, or back-of-house storage applications.
How clear are these polypropylene containers?
The buckets are offered in three color options—white (opaque), translucent (cloudy), and crystal-clear. The clear option provides excellent product visibility for merchandising, while the translucent version offers moderate contact clarity and the white version provides full light blocking.
Are these buckets environmentally friendly?
Constructed from #5 PP, the containers are lightweight, nestable for efficient shipping, and recyclable in many curbside and commercial recycling programs. Choosing reusable PP over single-use packaging supports waste-reduction initiatives and lowers transportation emissions.
