How to ensure the quality of plastic buckets from raw materials?

In the plastic packaging products industry, the quality of raw materials directly determines the service life, safety performance and customer experience of the product. Especially for plastic buckets that hold pesticides, chemical liquids, edible oils and other materials for a long time, the selection and application process of raw materials need to be strictly controlled.

As a professional plastic buckets manufacturer, Enlightening Plast always adheres to the principle of “materials first” to ensure the quality and safety of each plastic bucket from the source.

Sinopec raw materials

All the polypropylene raw materials used in our factory come from large national suppliers such as Sinopec and PetroChina, among which the main model is Sinopec K8303 polypropylene.

This model has high purity, high toughness, and good injection molding performance. It is widely used in food, medicine, agriculture and other fields, and fully meets the requirements for high quality and high safety of plastic packaging.

No matter how the market fluctuates, our factory has never changed the raw material supplier and model, and always maintains a high degree of consistency and stability in product quality.

Refuse to add calcium powder

In order to reduce costs, some manufacturers on the market will add 5%-10% calcium powder to the raw materials to increase the weight of the bucket, which actually seriously weakens the toughness and impact resistance of the plastic.

Calcium powder is not easy to find within 0-6 months, but after 6 months, it will be gradually released under long-term immersion in liquids such as pesticides and greases, polluting the liquid in the bucket and easily causing secondary quality accidents.

Our factory promises: 0 calcium powder addition, 0 auxiliary material doping, and pure materials are used to manufacture each plastic bucket. The product does not whiten, deteriorate, or react during use, truly protecting the load.

Central feeding system to prevent artificial addition

Traditional manual seasoning methods are prone to human errors, uneven mixing, and arbitrary addition of auxiliary materials. Our factory uses a fully automatic central feeding system to deliver the specified model of raw materials to the injection molding machine through a pipeline system. The entire process is unmanned and effectively avoids the artificial addition of non-compliant auxiliary materials such as color powder and calcium powder.

It not only improves production efficiency but also fundamentally guarantees the consistency and safety of the product.

Use of high-end masterbatches

Our factory only uses Shanghai Persian masterbatches, with an average price of $4829/ton. Compared with color powder, masterbatches have the following advantages:

  • Not easy to absorb moisture, not stick to containers, and easier to mix;
  • Good dispersibility, accurate measurement, and extremely strong color stability;
  • Environmentally friendly and pollution-free, in line with national production standards.

Low-priced color powders on the market are only $2080/ton, but not only are they unstable, they are very easy to change color when exposed to heat or exposure, and have serious dust pollution, and have long been inconsistent with environmental protection policies.
