Description

The global Open-top Plastic Drum market size is expected to reach $ 2152 million by 2032, rising at a market growth of 3.6% CAGR during the forecast period (2026-2032).

An open-top plastic drum, also known as an open-head plastic drum or barrel, is a type of container made primarily from high-density polyethylene (HDPE) or polypropylene (PP). It is designed with a removable lid or cover that can be securely fastened to the drum body using various mechanisms such as a lever-lock ring or screw-on lid. This design allows for easy filling, emptying, and cleaning, making these drums versatile for storing and transporting a wide range of materials. Key Characteristics of Open-Top Plastic Drums 1. Material: Typically made from HDPE or PP, which are known for their durability, chemical resistance, and lightweight properties. 2. Design: Removable Lid: The lid can be completely removed, providing full access to the drum's interior. Secure Fastening: The lid is secured to the drum body using a lever-lock ring, bolt ring, or screw-on mechanism to ensure a tight seal. 3. Capacity: Available in various sizes, ranging from small capacities (e.g., 10 liters) to large capacities (e.g., 200 liters or more). 4. Sealing: Often equipped with a gasket in the lid to ensure airtight and watertight sealing, preventing leaks and contamination. 5. Handles: Many open-top drums come with integrated handles or grips for easier handling and transport.
