options to best fit the needs of your specific project.
Lightweight Containers
The
DuraGreen Pallet Pack Containers
consist of a plastic top and pallet made from a twin-sheet thermoformed plastic with a heavy-duty corrugated cardboard sleeve. These containers can hold up to 2,000 lbs. and weigh in at about 60 lbs. themselves. Along with the option of the cardboard sleeve, there is a plastic sleeve to use alongside the pallet and top. The plastic option would be a good fit for projects involving a warmer climate, or those that might not need a 2,000 lb. limit. The plastic sleeve option maintains a low tare weight and can hold up to 1,000 lbs. of evenly distributed product. Both the cardboard and plastic sleeve selections, with the use of the pallet and top, provide a durable, cost-effective, lightweight container system that is functional in a variety of industries.
Liquid Tight containers
The
DuraGreen Bulk Bins
with a lid creates a “spill-proof, weather-resistant” container that can be used to store
small parts, liquids
, and/or food-related products. With most of the bins being made of Polypropylene Plastic, this makes the bin FDA approved, which is useful for those in the
food & beverage industry
. These bins are made without seams, so even if your container is exposed to unpredictable elements, they remain sealed and weather resistant. With a handful of sizes available in the
DuraGreen Bulk Bin
category, we feel confident that one of these will fulfill your needs.
Dispensing/Disposal Containers
The DuraGreen Hopper Bottom Bulk Containers are used to evenly distribute product from the container. Some uses for this container are: dispensing seed in agricultural settings, food processing plants where the product can be stored inside the container for a “work in process” , and/or containing flowable products such as golf ball core, rock salt, plastic pellets, or bottle caps. The container has a variety of uses and comes in two different footprints- a 45 x 48” option and a 57x45” option. Heights range from 32” to 74” tall, depending on how much room you need.
Fixed Wall Containers:
There are several options in our
DuraGreen Fixed Wall Bulk Containers
that can best serve your project. Fixed Wall Containers provide outstanding load handling and stack strength for jobs that call for heavier products. Another benefit to Fixed Wall Containers is that there is permanent protection from all four sides of the container. With these capabilities, fixed wall containers are used throughout the
automotive industry
,
industrial distribution
