Description
Product Overview
The Hudson Exchange 5 Gallon Handled Container is engineered from high‑density polyethylene (HDPE), a material celebrated for its chemical resistance, impact strength, and food‑grade safety. Measuring 11 x 9.25 x 15 inches and weighing just under 3 pounds, this 20 liter (5 gallon) container provides ample capacity for a wide range of liquids while remaining lightweight enough for easy handling. The vibrant blue color not only adds visual distinction in busy lab environments but also helps quickly identify the container among other equipment.
Designed with a conventional 60 mm neck finish, the container includes a secure red cap that creates a tight seal to prevent leaks and contamination. The integrated ergonomic handle is positioned for comfortable, controlled pouring, reducing spillage and fatigue during repetitive tasks. Stackable geometry allows multiple units to be safely nested, optimizing storage space in cabinets, shelves, or transport carts.
Usage
In laboratory settings, the Hudson Exchange container excels for storing reagents, solvents, and aqueous solutions that require food‑safe containment. Its HDPE construction resists most acids, bases, and organic solvents, making it suitable for chemistry, biology, and environmental testing labs. The robust cap and handle combination also supports routine tasks such as transferring liquids to beakers, flasks, or analytical instruments.
Industrial applications benefit from the container’s durability and stackability. Facilities that manage bulk water, cleaning agents, or oil‑based products can rely on the container’s long‑term performance, even under harsh temperature fluctuations. The food‑safe resin ensures compliance with safety standards when the container is used for potable water or food‑grade substances.
Field technicians appreciate the lightweight yet sturdy design for on‑site sampling, where portability and resistance to accidental drops are essential. The clear labeling area on the container’s side provides space for permanent markings, barcode stickers, or temporary notes, facilitating inventory control and traceability.
