High-Performance Storage & Shipping
International buyers and chemical logistics directors rely on industrial drums to guarantee product purity, worker safety, and environmental protection across demanding global supply chains. Mauser Packaging Solutions manufactures a comprehensive portfolio of high-density plastic, steel, fiber, and reconditioned drums engineered to exceed international transport regulations.
Whether your operations require food-grade certified liners, UN-rated hazardous liquid containment, or heavy-duty powder storage, our technical engineers help select exact drum sizes, wall thicknesses, closures, and internal coatings tailored to your specific chemical compatibility needs.
Product Portfolio
Designed for maximum stacking strength, leak-resistance, and seamless integration into automated filling lines worldwide.
Blow-molded from high-density polyethylene (HDPE) with superior chemical resistance. Available in tight-head and open-head designs for liquids, viscous products, and solid materials.
Heavy-gauge cold-rolled steel drums engineered for extreme durability under harsh transport conditions. Essential for flammable solvents, petrochemicals, and hazardous goods.
Lightweight, eco-friendly fiber drums designed for dry powders, granular materials, and pharmaceutical API shipping. Easy to stack, handle, and recycle completely.
Professionally washed, thermal-cleaned, and pressure-tested reconditioned drums that deliver original performance at a significantly lower carbon footprint and cost.
An innovative pallet securing system that replaces stretch wrap. Keeps drum loads rigid, eliminates transport tipping, and minimizes warehouse packaging waste.
Ultra-clean manufacturing processes ensure these drums meet FDA, EU, and GMP standards for delicate food flavorings, ingredients, active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), and hygiene products.
