Water Plastic Drums – Plastic Barrels

Name: Plastic Drums for Water Storage | Cabar Plast
Brand: Čabar Plast

Our plastic tanks or plastic barrels are a versatile product that first emerged as a replacement for the traditional wooden barrel with metal hoops, which was used as a fermenting vat. Such barrels were stored in deep and dark cellars, as they would burst in the sun. Every year, they had to be tightened by being soaked with water and filled with water to tighten the wooden staves. Any manipulation with them was difficult because such barrels were massive and usually, once placed, they would not be moved.

These barrels were mainly used for fermenting, while ours can be used as water barrels.

Water tanks have become an indispensable element in various branches of agriculture, industry, and households thanks to their practicality, durability, and versatility of use.

Here is a detailed explanation of how water tanks are used in specific branches:

Agriculture:

Irrigation: In dry years, larger plastic tanks are used for the irrigation of raspberry patches, blackberry patches, orchards, plantations, and greenhouses. Thanks to the possibility of connecting with drip irrigation systems, they allow for efficient and economical distribution of water directly to the plant roots.
Mixing Mineral Fertilizers: Tanks enable the preparation of mineral fertilizer solutions, which are then distributed to plants via the irrigation system, optimizing plant nutrition and increasing yield.

Industry

Production Processes:In industrial processes, water tanks are used for storing various liquids, from raw materials to finished products, ensuring cleanliness and protection from contamination.

PLASTIC BARRELS INSTEAD OF WOODEN TANKS

Plastic tanks have replaced them, and the advantages of using them as water tanks are immense. They are incomparably lighter and resistant to all influences; some even keep them in the sun if they are used for fermenting to accelerate fermentation since the tanks are used for fermenting all kinds of fruits (apples, pears, quinces, plums, cornel cherries, etc.)

Plastic water tanks can also be made with a removable lid, providing excellent protection

Also, tanks are not only for water but also for fermenting, and they can be used in multiple ways because they can be easily washed with water after any use. They can store liquid, granular, powdered materials. Plastic barrels are today an irreplaceable product in every household

Čabar Plast Osečina plastic tanks are produced from high-density polyethylene (HDPE) and polypropylene (PP) using spiral winding and plastic welding technology.

The materials from which Čabar Plast plastic tanks are made possess excellent:

Mechanical Characteristics
