How does Gorilla Drum™ compare...

against traditional 55-gallon steel drums?

 

We know relying on the availability and cost-effectiveness of traditional 55-gallon steel drums can drive waste haulers or packaging and logistics companies completely bananas — but what’s worse than these headaches is the significant amount of carbon emissions and energy usage that’s associated with transporting traditional steel drums.
