Drum / Container 120 liters blue with total opening

Mauser 120 liter blue total opening drum (Reference: 200408) represents the ultimate professional storage and transport solution for demanding industries. Manufactured by Mauser, global leader in industrial container design, this High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) drum is designed through blow molding extrusion to guarantee exceptional resistance and reliability. FDA certified for food contact, it meets the strictest quality and safety standards.

Benefits and use cases

This 120 liter drum proves indispensable for professionals in chemical, petrochemical and food industries who handle products in solid, powder or paste form. Its versatility makes it the ideal tool for storing raw materials, food ingredients, technical powders, plastic granules or non-hazardous chemical products.

Pharmaceutical laboratories appreciate it for packaging active powders, while food industries use it to store spices, special flours, food supplements and additives. Its FDA certification guarantees compliance for all products intended for human and animal consumption.

Recycling companies also find this drum a valuable ally for collecting and transporting recyclable waste, thanks to its easy cleaning and resistance to mechanical stress.

Technical specifications and innovation

The blow molding extrusion technology used by Mauser gives this drum a homogeneous structure and optimal resistance to impacts and transport stress. The selected HDPE offers excellent chemical resistance and remarkable dimensional stability, even with temperature variations.

The total opening constitutes this drum's major innovation. Unlike traditional drums with reduced opening, this design allows complete access to contents, facilitating filling, emptying and especially cleaning. This feature proves crucial for food applications where hygiene is paramount.

Its blue color meets industrial color codes and facilitates visual identification of contents. HDPE material being naturally odorless and non-porous, it does not alter the organoleptic properties of stored products. Its lightness optimizes transport costs while maintaining exemplary robustness.

Installation, use and maintenance

Using this Mauser drum requires no particular installation. Its ergonomic design facilitates manual or mechanized handling. For filling, the total opening allows the use of direct pouring systems or automated filling devices.

During storage, ensure to store drums in a dry environment, away from direct UV rays and extreme temperatures. Vertical storage is recommended to optimize space and facilitate access. For moisture-sensitive products, adding a sealed lid is essential.

Cleaning is easily performed thanks to the total opening. Simple rinsing with warm water suffices for common food applications. For chemical products, use appropriate detergents while respecting safety procedures. HDPE resists main industrial cleaning agents.

For transport, ensure the lid is properly secured and the drum is stabilized to prevent any movement during transport.

Tips, synergies and expert advice

To optimize your Mauser drum use, consider acquiring complementary accessories available at Multitanks. Sealed lids secure storage of moisture-sensitive products, while handling straps facilitate manual transport.

For intensive industrial applications, using adapted handling carts reduces strain and accelerates storage operations. Companies handling multiple product types can opt for a color coding system complementing regulatory labeling.

Expert advice: for food products, perform a compatibility test on a small sample before first use. Although FDA certified, each formulation may present particular specificities.

In terms of durability, this HDPE drum is 100% recyclable. At end of life, it can be valorized in the plastic sector, thus contributing to your environmental approach. For companies subject to ISO 14001 standards, keep recycling certificates for your traceability.

During winter periods, check storage temperature as some paste products may harden and complicate emptying. Total opening nevertheless remains a considerable advantage in these situations.
