18L Tapered White Bucket

When you start handling serious volumes of honey, “any old” bucket is no longer enough. You’ve seen lids that don’t seal properly, handles that creak under load and containers that don’t inspire much confidence when you’re loading the van or preparing a shipment. That’s where a proper food-grade container makes a real difference in your day-to-day work.

This 18-litre food-grade bucket is made of polypropylene (PP), a stable plastic that is safe for honey, syrups and other products in the honey room. It comes with a reinforced folding handle, designed to support the full weight of the bucket without nasty surprises, and a press-on lid with safety tab that clicks into place to ensure an even seal around the whole rim. It’s the kind of container you can move, stack and transport with confidence.

And it’s not just any bucket: it is approved according to ADR, UN, IMDG and ICAO standards. In practice, this means it meets much higher requirements for strength and leak-tightness than a standard container, which is key when you work with honey pallets, bulk shipments or simply want to minimise the risk of leaks in storage and transport.

It is very practical for storing and transporting liquid or crystallised honey, feeding syrups and other beekeeping products. In large harvests, it is ideal for organising batches by apiary or flowering and keeping everything identified and protected from moisture and dirt.

From a technical point of view, this is a PP food-grade container with a capacity of 18 litres, folding handle and a press-on lid with locking tab made of the same material. Its approximate dimensions are 298 mm in height and 332 mm mouth diameter, making it compatible with most transfer systems and standard pallet layouts in professional honey rooms.
