RPC Containers UKSC (UK Stock Containers) has brought out its ‘lightest ever’ standard jerrycan.
The new 5-litre Compact Eco-Lite jerrycan is 13g and 10% lighter than the previous version. This is around 23g lighter than many other similar container types, according to RPC. ??
Granted Combination UN approval for various hazardous goods, it is available with a wadless closure and two-pass print decoration.
The absence of labels and closure wad creates a mono material pack that can be fully recycled,” said David Baker, general sales manager, RPC Containers UKSC.??
The retail chain has signed up to reducing packaging weight through the Courtauld Commitment.
“We are very mindful of the need to reduce packaging weight in line with the Courtauld Commitment and the demands of today’s markets, but at the same time it is equally crucial that the resulting pack is robust and fit for purpose,” added Mr Baker.
