PRODUCT FEATURES
Are these 2-gallon buckets safe for direct food contact?
Absolutely. Each pail is injection-molded from virgin, BPA-free, FDA-compliant HDPE resin, making it suitable for ingredients, brines, sauces, and any other application that calls for direct food contact.
What are the exact dimensions and wall thickness of the bucket?
The bucket stands 9.25" tall, has an 8.25" base diameter, and features a rugged 70-mil wall thickness. That heavy-duty profile provides excellent impact resistance while still allowing the pails to nest for space-efficient storage.
Can I hot-fill products into these buckets?
Yes. When paired with the matching lid and EPDM tubular gasket, the pail can be safely hot-filled up to 180 °F (82 °C). Just be sure the product cools before stacking or palletizing to preserve pail integrity.
Are these food-grade buckets suitable for freezer applications?
They are. HDPE remains flexible at sub-zero temperatures, and these pails have been tested for freezer storage without cracking or losing their seal.
How many 2-gallon pails fit in a case or on a pallet?
Bulk packs contain 432 pails per bundle, with two bundles—864 pails total—per 48" × 36" pallet. For smaller operations, we also offer single-unit and carton quantities.
Are these HDPE buckets recyclable and sustainable?
Yes. The pails are molded from #2 HDPE, one of the most widely accepted resins in curbside recycling programs. They’re produced in a facility audited to GMP/HACCP standards, supporting both food safety and sustainability goals.
