Intermediate Bulk Containers
DuraGreen® intermediate bulk containers (IBCs) or foldable intermediate bulk containers (FIBCs) secure the handling and transporting of granulated substances or bulk liquids, making the entire process safe and easy. These storage bins have a wide capacity range from 1,300 to 3,000 lbs. of product. Because IBCs and FIBCs are stackable or collapsible, they allow maximum space utilization. Not only will they save space, but they are also easy to fill, discharge, and transport. All of these features result in substantially lower packaging costs.
DuraGreen bulk bins are engineered for the most demanding applications that require exceptional durability and reliability. These liquid transport containers are manufactured using high-grade plastics such as HDPE and high impact polypropylene as well as FDA-approved plastic materials. These bulk plastic storage bins are recyclable and are made for the Circular Economy and have a very low carbon footprint due to their reusability.
These reusable bulk containers can be used in a variety of applications including automotive, industrial, distribution, food and beverage, chemical handling, resin, fruit and vegetable harvest and storage as well as military grade applications. Collapsible storage bins come in a variety of sizes to fit the material handling needs of any company.
Benefits include:
- Strong stack strength - Storage bins can stack five high in many applications to save floor space and eliminate racking systems.
- Hygienic - These plastic containers are easy to clean and help to meet strict food safety guidelines.
- Sustainable - Reusable and 100% recyclable, thereby contributing to the circular economy and reduced carbon footprint.

RPP Containers prides itself on being the #1 stocking distributor in the country, including a wide range of products. Our goal is to ensure that we have a product to meet each customer’s needs with their specific applications, so they don’t have to look elsewhere. While many projects will require standard size containers such as 40” x 48” or 45” x 48”- there are many applications and uses that require larger, extended length bulk containers. Over the last 20+ years, we have learned that with tons of feedback, many customers and companies require extended-length containers to fit their longer parts when a standard size does not work. For this reason, we will highlight the benefits of using extended-length bulk containers.
RPP Containers has improved their dolly design. The new version will offer the same benefits as the original: a strong, durable base; superior weight capacity; and easy control. However, the new design increases the ease of placing and removing containers on the dolly. This is accomplished by a simple yet innovative change to the design.

RPP Containers offers a variety of lines of collapsible bulk containers and nestable bulk bins to help your company save on closed-loop shipping programs.

RPP Containers has an unwavering commitment to environmental sustainability and has considered this one of its guiding principles since the company was founded in 1998. While the material handling world has evolved over the years, RPP's 3-pronged approach of reducing, reusing, and recycling has remained constant.
For many companies out there, bulk bins can be a perfect solution for storage needs, but not all companies are the same. If you only need packaging for a few months every year, it would make more sense for a short term rental. Your company has outgrown your current location, but you have a lot of necessary equipment you can’t risk getting damaged? A short term rental program of bulk containers can help protect your inventory along the way without creating a massive amount of waste. Wanting to introduce collapsible totes into your plant, but having trouble getting the capital to set aside for testing, bring in some low cost rental packaging to give it a test drive.
