Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between new and reconditioned 220L plastic drums?
Reconditioned 220L plastic drums have been previously used, then professionally cleaned, inspected, and refurbished to meet industry standards. They offer the same functionality as new drums but at a lower cost and with reduced environmental impact. The reconditioning process extends the drum’s useful life while ensuring it meets safety and performance requirements for industrial use.
Are these 220L drums suitable for food storage?
No, our reconditioned L-ring drums are not recommended for food storage. While they undergo a thorough cleaning process, they may have previously contained industrial chemicals or other substances. For food-grade applications, we recommend purchasing new drums specifically certified for food contact.
Do I need to use bunding with these 220L plastic drums?
If you’re storing hazardous liquids or chemicals that could harm the environment, UK regulations require appropriate spill containment measures such as bunded storage. We offer compatible spill pallets designed specifically for drum storage. For non-hazardous liquids, bunding may not be legally required but is still recommended as best practice for spill prevention.
How should I properly dispose of 220L plastic drums after use?
These HDPE drums are fully recyclable at the end of their service life. For drums that have contained hazardous materials, ensure they are properly emptied and cleaned according to regulations before recycling. Alternatively, they may be suitable for further reconditioning. Contact your local environmental or recycling authority for guidance on appropriate handling in your area.
Can I purchase fewer than 8 drums?
Our 220L plastic drums are sold in standard pallets of 8 units to optimise shipping and handling efficiency. If you require a smaller quantity, please contact our customer service team to discuss available options. We are happy to assist with bespoke orders to meet your specific needs.
