The full-open top makes filling, mixing, and clean-out fast — ideal for food processors, beverage makers, agricultural operations, and industrial users handling dry goods, liquids, or ingredients in bulk.

Molded from FDA-compliant, BPA-free high-density polyethylene (HDPE) with a 2.2 mm wall, this drum is UN rated 1H2/Y250/S for regulated solids shipping. The urethane lid gasket and lever-lock closure deliver a tight, secure seal that stands up to handling and transport.
