Food Industry Stainless Steel Drums

In addition to being corrosion resistant, these drums have smooth, welded seams to prevent food and chemicals from collecting in crevices.

Closed-head drums have a lid that’s permanently sealed, so the only way to access the contents inside is through the two lid openings. They’re often used to hold wine and other liquids because they’re less likely to leak or spill than open-head drums. All are UN compliant for shipping.
