Our Product Offerings
Steel Drums
Steel drums are essential in many industries due to their durability and ability to safely contain a wide range of materials. Our inventory includes UN-rated steel drums that comply with regulatory standards for hazardous materials. We offer both closed-head and open-head designs, ensuring that you find the perfect fit for your needs.
Closed-head drums are ideal for storing liquids and offer a more secure seal, making them suitable for chemicals and other sensitive materials. Open-head drums, on the other hand, allow for easy access to the contents and are perfect for applications that require frequent filling and emptying.
We also provide stainless steel drums, which are particularly advantageous for industries that require resistance to corrosion and contamination. These drums are often used in food processing, pharmaceuticals, and other applications where hygiene is critical. Our steel drums come in various sizes to cater to different storage and transportation needs.
Plastic Drums
Plastic drums are gaining popularity due to their lightweight construction and resistance to corrosion. At McManus Drum Co. Inc., we offer heavy-duty 55-gallon plastic drums that are suitable for a variety of applications, including the storage of liquids, chemicals, and food-grade materials.
Our 55-gallon plastic drums are available in both open-head and closed-head configurations, allowing you to choose the most appropriate design for your specific needs. Open-head plastic drums feature removable lids that facilitate easy filling and access, while closed-head drums provide enhanced sealing to prevent leaks and contamination.
In addition to standard sizes, we offer a range of colors to help with easy identification of contents. Whether you need drums for storage, transportation, or mixing, our 55-gallon plastic drums are designed to provide reliable performance in a variety of conditions.
Fiber Drums
Fiber drums represent an eco-friendly option for packaging, combining lightweight construction with excellent strength. Our fiber drums are particularly cost-effective and are often used for bulk storage and transportation. They are available in sizes ranging from 10 to 77 gallons, making them suitable for various applications.
These drums are made from recycled materials, contributing to sustainability efforts while maintaining quality and performance. Their design is ideal for dry products, including powders and granules, and they can be used in industries such as food processing, chemicals, and pharmaceuticals.
Fiber drums also feature optional linings for moisture protection, ensuring that your products remain safe during transport. Their light weight allows for easier handling, making them a practical choice for many businesses.
Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBCs)
For large-volume storage and transportation needs, Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBCs) are an excellent choice. At McManus Drum Co. Inc., we provide IBCs in capacities of 275 and 330 gallons, perfect for a range of products from water and fuel to hazardous materials.
IBCs are constructed from a variety of materials, including high-density polyethylene (HDPE) and stainless steel. Each material offers distinct advantages based on the intended use. For example, HDPE IBCs provide resistance to corrosion and UV rays, while stainless steel IBCs are suitable for food-grade products and hazardous materials.
Most IBCs come equipped with a built-in pallet for easy forklift access, simplifying the loading and unloading process. Their stackable design maximizes storage efficiency, making them an ideal solution for businesses with limited space.
