RPC Containers UKSC and Nexus
Packaging have collaborated in the
design and launch of a new
generation of user-friendly large
plastic containers with special antiglug
feature.

The Ecostacker plastic drum
range has been developed to
overcome ecological, transport,
handling and pouring issues
associated with some large
containers in order to boost safety,
strength, stability and value.

The Safepour anti-glug system
counters the effects of glugging by
equalising the pressure inside and
outside the container via a speciallydeveloped
insert to give a consistent,
fast and safe flow of product for both
viscous and non-viscous liquids.

Equally important, the new system
has achieved UN approval for the
transport of hazardous goods.

Filled containers are stacked with
the load evenly distributed across
eight contact areas to the container
beneath ensuring that the integrity,
shape and visual presentation of the
product is not compromised. The
stacking system is said to reduce
transport costs by over 10%
compared with existing 20L
drums and 15% for 25L sizes.
