Recontainers Ltd specialises in the buying, selling and cleaning of empty hazardous and non-hazardous chemical conditions.
Established in 1991, the family-run business exhibited at CHEMUK 2024 for the first time to meet prospective new customers.
Located in the Chemical Supply Chain Show Zone, the Lancashire-based company showcased its products and services to visitors from the logistics & transportation, packaging & labelling and storage & containers sectors.
Recontainers Ltd buy and sell reconditioned IBCs (Intermediate Bulk Containers) in different specifications (grade, pallet, base and UN-certified and non-UN certified) and offers an IBC reconditioning (wash and return) service.
Health & Safety is a paramount concern for businesses needing to store and safely transport larger amounts of chemicals across the UK. IBC tanks have been a product of choice for many years due to the following benefits:
- Robust properties – IBCs are made of durable, galvanised outer steel frames built to protect the inner polyethylene section.
- Space saving – IBCs are stackable due to its cubic shape
- Screw-cap lids – Allowing for easy filling, with a bottom outlet valve for emptying/decanting.
- Easy transportation – IBCs can be lifted onto pallets using a FLT or pallet jack for seamless transportation (also quicker to load/off load than chemical drums)
- Waste efficiency – 1,000Lt of chemicals can be stored in larger IBC tanks, which is advantageous with regards to removing waste when discharging and draining the containers.
- Sustainable best practice – IBCs are fully-recyclable containers, demonstrating excellent circular economy practice.
- Cross-sector usage – IBCs can be used to store and transport a wide range of liquids, pastes or solids. In farming and agriculture, they can be used for water irrigation/collecting rain, fertiliser storage, with reconditioned ones ideal for storage solutions. On construction sites, they can store water for bulk cement mixing or dust suppression.
- Multi-purpose – IBCs can be used to store both UN chemicals (suitable for hazardous/corrosive chemicals) or non-UN (non-hazardous chemicals)
Recontainers Ltd has an online shop facility for trade customers, with bulk orders possible by request. Three of the best-sellers include the following:
- Grade 1 Clear reconditioned 1,000L IBC on metal/plastic pallet (non-UN)
