Closed-top steel drum

Built for repeated handling

Our steel drums are cold-rolled and seam-welded for consistent wall strength, then tested for leaks and drop resistance before dispatch. Closed-top drums suit liquids that ship sealed; open-top (lever-lock) drums suit powders, pastes and viscous products that need full access for filling and emptying.

  • Bare mild steel, lacquered, or epoxy/phenolic lined interiors
  • Rolling hoops for safe manual handling and stacking
  • 2" and 3/4" fitted bungs on closed-top drums
  • Custom branding and colour coating for bulk orders
