Many uses for nesting drums

While FDL Packaging Group has been offering tapered steel drums of up to 120L capacity for a number of years, its new Mauser range offers drums in capacities of up to 218L.

The drums are designed to 'nest' inside one another, regardless of filling volume, reducing transport costs and warehouse space requirements. The drums can also be neatly palletised.

Made from mild steel in 0.6 to 0.8mm thicknesses, with a single hoop to ensure stiffness and with easy filling and emptying, the conical steel drums have the flexibility to offer multi-use applications and are suitable for hydroscopic and hotpour products even with high density, giving a filling volume from 175 to 218L.

Specially designed to be used in the food industry in conjunction with aseptic bags, they can be externally coated in a range of colours and internally lacquered.
