Materials Used in Plastic Jerry Cans and Their Benefits

One of the most common materials used in plastic jerry can production is HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene). Known for its durability, strength, flexibility, and resistance to impacts and chemicals, HDPE jerry cans don’t crack easily and help preserve the quality of their contents.

Bioplast uses HDPE for all its jerry can products. Thanks to this material, Bioplast jerry cans are safe for liquid products and comply with FDA food contact standards.

Bioplast’s HDPE products are also recyclable! However, to maintain product quality, Bioplast only uses 100% virgin resin in its jerry can manufacturing process.

This makes them a reliable option for storing everything from food and beverages to raw liquid materials. Ideal for industrial use, don’t you think?
