Why are 20L rectangular plastic buckets:

Compared to traditional buckets, rectangular plastic containers have more advantages to consider for replacement. Here are 10 advantages of rectangular plastic buckets compared to other containers of the same capacity (20L):

  1. Better Space Efficiency:Rectangular plastic buckets utilize shelf space more efficiently due to their straight sides and angular corners. A 20L rectangular plastic bucket is ideal for stackable nesting design, maximizing storage capacity in warehouses, retail shelves, and transport vehicles.

Rectangular buckets stack better and occupy less space than rounded buckets. This reduces the risk of them falling over, especially when stacked in large numbers. It also minimizes wasted space.

  1. Easy to clean: Compared with other materials of the container such as iron, and wood pails. Pure HDPE/PP as a raw material is perfect for injection molding. Plastic bucketsis made by injection molding process, don’t have gap junctions where the bucket is easy to hide dirt and is hard to clean. Plastic material also provides a polished and smooth surface that is easy to clean before reuse.
  2. Stability: The flat base offers bigger contact areas than rounded buckets. The specification shows the innopack®20L rectangular bucket bottom area is 847.9 cm². The round-shaped 20L plastic bucket has a bottom area at 572.3 cm².

The more contact areas at the bottom means better friction power and stability. Rectangular buckets with straight sides offer more stability when stacked or placed on surfaces. This helps them stay upright and secure during storage and transportation.

  1. Cost-effectiveness:Rectangular buckets may nest inside each other more efficiently when empty, reducing storage space requirements when not in use and simplifying logistics for transportation and handling. Allowing edge-to-edge, no-gap arrangement, saves pallet area space-wasting, and more units of packaging per pallet can reduce the transporting cost on the other hand.

More information about the good cost efficiency of rectangular buckets is explained in the previous article “Square Buckets Organize, Store, and Create 8L Square Plastic Buckets.”

      5.Handling Ease: The rectangular shape of these buckets offers ergonomic advantages, providing better grip and control during lifting, carrying, and pouring tasks compared to rounded buckets.

  1. Lightweight:PP& HDPE resin is one modern industrial raw material for creating lightweight plastic parts. The weight of an Innopack ® 20L rectangular plastic bucket is only 0.89kg but can be carrying almost 30 kg for load capacity
  2. Customization Options:Rectangular buckets have flat surfaces that make it easy to customize with labeling, printing, embossing, or attaching accessories. This allows for branding, identification, or product differentiation. Rectangular buckets with a 20L capacity have large, flat surfaces that are perfect for labeling, branding, and displaying product information. This makes them visually appealing and improves visibility for customers and end-users.
  3. Pouring Precision: Rectangular pails allow for more precise dispensing of contents because of their vertical walls. Innopack® offers clear plastic pails with calibration markings (scales) for labeling and printing, enabling accurate pouring without any spillage or splattering, unlike the conventional round-shaped buckets. Long-lasting Durability: This rectangular plastic is made from PP/HDPE, materials are known for excellent resistance to impact, resistance to extreme cold and heat of -20℃ to +90℃ and the most commercially available chemicals. No gap junction is a great result of plastic injection molding.
  4. The wall thickness is enhanced to 90 mil (2.2 mm) for super heavy use. Rectangular plastic buckets are versatile containers.
  5. Versatility: Various industries can use them. These industries include food and beverage, agriculture, construction, retail, and household cleaning. 20L rectangular plastic buckets offer flexible packaging, storage, and transport solutions.
