Kraft drums

Green, recyclable kraft fibre drums made in a sustainable, customisable way for each company

Kraft fibre drums are used particularly in the pharmaceutical, chemical and food industries, but also by all companies needing to store or transport their products in highly durable, green packaging. They are suitable for storing and transporting hazardous and non-hazardous materials provided they are solids, powder, pastes or semi-liquids.

4 reasons for using kraft drums

  • Sustainable

    Kraft fibre is a natural product made from fast-growing softwood trees grown sustainably, with a new tree planted for every tree used. 100% of the material we buy comes from managed forests certified by the FSC™. The suppliers of Kraft fibre set aside around 25% of the forest land they rent or own for conservation.

  • Efficient

    The production process for manufacturing Kraft fibre drums requires much less energy than that needed for melting glass, metals and plastic. The carbon footprint of Kraft fibre drums is less than for similar packaging made of other materials. They are also light, reducing the costs of handling, transporting and using them.

  • Safe

    Kraft drums are approved for the transport of hazardous materials, guaranteeing safe storage and transport of these products.

  • Recyclable

    At the end of their useful life as protective packaging material, Kraft fibre drums are easily recycled, with low energy levels, once the paper, steel and plastic have been separated.

Composition of kraft drums

Kraft paper drums are distinguished by their unique and sustainable construction, designed to offer a strong and environmentally friendly packaging solution. They are made of several layers of Kraft paper, a material known for its high strength and durability. This paper is made from virgin or recycled wood pulp, ensuring not only excellent protection for the products contained but also a commitment to environmental sustainability. The multi-layer structure of these drums gives them exceptional rigidity, capable of withstanding heavy loads and protecting against damage during transport and storage. In addition, they can include internal liners or special barriers to contain liquids, powders or hazardous materials, thus adapting to a wide range of industrial needs.

Kraft paper drums are versatile and are used in a variety of sectors, including the food, chemical, pharmaceutical and consumer products industries. Their light weight and strength make them ideal for the safe transport and storage of products, reducing shipping costs and minimising the risk of contamination or damage. Among their main advantages are:

Sustainability: As they are made from recyclable materials, they contribute to the circular economy and reduce environmental impact.

Customisation: They can be tailored in size, shape and internal barrier characteristics to meet specific product requirements.

Resistance: They offer excellent protection against impact, moisture and temperature variations.

Regulatory Compliance: They are designed to meet international regulations for the transport of goods, ensuring safety and compliance.

Choosing Kraft paper drums brings significant environmental and social benefits, reinforcing companies’ commitment to sustainable and responsible practices:

Reducing carbon footprint: By using recycled and recyclable materials, these drums reduce the demand for natural resources and waste generation.

Promoting social responsibility: By choosing eco-friendly packaging solutions, companies demonstrate their commitment to protecting the environment and the well-being of communities, which can strengthen their brand image and foster a positive relationship with consumers.

Packaging innovation: The use of Kraft drums stimulates innovation in sustainable packaging design, opening the way for new solutions that can be as or more effective than traditional options in terms of functionality and safety.

In short, Kraft paper drums represent an advanced packaging option that aligns industrial needs with the environmental and social imperatives of our time, offering a solution that is practical, safe and deeply committed to sustainability.
