For the correct choice of Eurocubes, it is necessary to take into account the specific requirements imposed on them, as well as the following factors:
The nature of the product to be filled (for example, flammability, corrosiveness, polluting nature of the environmental impact or other hazardous properties), the density of the product and its chemical compatibility with the material of the bottle and the sealing gasket of the drain valve;
transport legislation and terms of delivery;
storage conditions;
method of emptying, place of use, methods of handling goods;
return of eurocubes, their preparation for reuse or disposal.
As soon as we have such information, we will be able to recommend you the correct Eurocube model that meets all the necessary requirements.
Please keep in mind that there are the following types of Eurocubes:
1. Standard Eurocubes designed for transportation and storage of non-hazardous liquids, products and materials, for example, Ecobulk LX or Ecobulk MX, WERIT ECOline.
2. Eurocubes with UN (UN) or DOT (UN31HA1 / Y) certificates (admission), intended for the transportation of hazardous materials (except for Eurocubes with 400 mm necks), for example, Mauser SM 13 UN, WERIT TOPline;
3. Eurocubes made of materials compatible with food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical products and approved for use by European regulations EU / 1935/2004 and FDA (Food and Drug Administration), USA, for use in industries where the highest requirements for standards are imposed product quality and hygiene, e.g. Ecobulk MX FDA, Ecobulk MX-EV FDA, WERIT NUTRIline, Flubox Food.
The inner layer of the bottles of such Eurocubes is made of food grade polyethylene, which confirms: 1) the green label indicated above, located on the identification plate (Note - since 2013 on the labels of Schutz Eurocubes, in addition, a new standard for packaging Schutz food products is indicated FOODCERT, which not only ensures full compliance of the material in contact with food, but also gives a full guarantee of safety to production processes and properties of food products); 2) a green screw cap on the filler neck of the bottle; 3) a green handle and lid on the drain valve of the eurocube. These signs make it possible to clearly identify food eurocubes and use them both for domestic needs (watering of beds, a reserve of drinking water and water for a shower), and in industries where:
Concentrates of drinks and syrups;
cold drinks;
liquid seasonings and sauces;
edible oils and vinegars;
dairy products;
fruit and vegetable concentrates;
enzymes and vitamins;
spices and aromas.
At the end of 2013, the new Mauser FP 15 Aseptic was presented for loading, transporting, with guaranteed sterility, and emptying heat-sensitive food products (fruit and vegetable concentrates, juices with pulp, pastes, dairy products, egg yolk, etc.), including products with high viscosity (honey).
In this model, the polyethylene container is replaced by a flexible polypropylene fabric bag, inside which is placed an insert made of metallized polyethylene film.
Greif has released a similar novelty - the Flubox Flex Eurocube, which also uses the "bag in box" concept.
Schutz has launched the Ecobulk MX-FC and Ecobulk MX-FC-EV, which set a new standard in food safety and ensure compliance with all available food standards for materials, processes and products.
And also the following new products Ecobulk MX-CC and Ecobulk MX-CC-EV have appeared for use in areas where it is required to ensure the highest standards of safety and technical purity of packaging for materials, products and production processes.
WERIT introduced the STERIline (antimicrobial polyethylene eurocube), the bulb of which, together with the tap and the plastic lid, are designed to prevent any microbial contamination of the stored food by most algae, bacteria, fungi, viruses or mold and to promote automatic self-cleaning. This prevents the growth and spread of contaminating pathogens.
4. Eurocubes, with multilayer polyethylene bottles, specially designed for use in hazardous areas 1 and 2 (yellow label), for products with low flash points, for example, Mauser SM 13 EX, Ecobulk MX-EX, with a new threaded flange and cable, as a result of which steel plates and self-tapping screws are not required for crane grounding when using Eurocubes in hazardous areas, WERIT POLYex.
The inner layer of such Eurocubes is made of food-safe polyethylene, and the outer layer is made of an antistatic compound, which protects the bottle from the accumulation of electrostatic charge on it during the entire life of the Eurocube.
Eurocubes intended for use in hazardous areas 1 and 2, in addition, can be electrically conductive or antistatic.
5. Electrically conductive Eurocubes (with Cenelec certificate) for the transportation of flammable (with a flashpoint less than 60 ° C) or explosive products, as well as for working with them in rooms with an explosive atmosphere (the conductive outer layer of black polyethylene of the bottle protects the Eurocube from dangerous electrostatic charge, and a grounded drain valve discharges the electrostatic charge of the filled product) (Mauser SM 13 EX), or they can be with embedded carbon nanotubes, Ecobulk MX-EX conductive.
6. Antistatic Eurocubes with a white outer layer of the bottle (Ecobulk MX-EX antistatic, WERIT POLYex, Flubox Elektron) optimally protect products from dangerous electrostatic discharge.
To eliminate the potential risk of electric charge from the products being filled, Eurocubes are equipped with continuous grounding through the drain valve, crate and pallet.
7. Eurocubes with protection of photosensitive products from UV radiation and visible light, with bottles made of black polymer (Ecobulk MX-EX-EV conductive), white bottles (Mauser SM 13 LP (Light Protect), white (TiO2) or black ( black graphite, option) (WERIT PROTECline), while a special white pigment reflects the sun's rays, and thus limits the temperature level inside the eurocube, unlike black bottles;
A special opaque bottle is made of a material that is a mixture of polyethylene and an additive that protects products from UV radiation and visible light even in such geometrically inaccessible places as, for example, near the drain cock or the upper filler neck. Compared to Eurocubes with an all-metal frame, these Eurocubes have a decisive advantage.
Unlike conventional Eurocubes, which provide protection from light with black bottles, the white bottle reflects the sun and therefore limits the temperature inside the bottle, while the black bottle heats up significantly more. This is of particular importance as many light-sensitive products also tend to react chemically at these elevated temperatures.
8. Eurocubes, with a barrier layer of EVOH (copolymer of ethylene and vinyl alcohol), which for a long time effectively protects the contents from the access of oxygen, carbon dioxide and nitrogen (thereby protecting products from oxidation, loss of vitamins and microbial contamination), protects substances containing solvents such as toluene, xylene, gasoline, alcohol, as well as oils and greases, from accidental loss of quality, protects highly volatile products and aseptic liquids from the leakage of aromas and odors during their transportation and storage (Ecobulk MX-EV);
9. Eurocubes for transporting products with high viscosity (paints, varnishes, adhesives, resins, food such as honey), which have tapered front edges (Ecobulk MX-HV), a 400 mm filler neck and a DN 150 drain valve (Ecobulk MX) for the most efficient drainage of product residues, as well as new products (Ecobulk HX and Ecobulk HX-EX), with outstanding performance in emptying product residues by almost 100% thanks to the steeply sloping sides of the base of the inner bottle and the low-level drain cock;
10. Explosion-proof eurocubes (Ecobulk SX-EX), intended for use in hazardous areas (Hazard Class 1 and 2), have an outer all-metal casing (casing) made of galvanized steel sheet, and, therefore, electrically conductive, at the same time, its surface the resistance is less than 104 ohms, and no electrostatic charge can occur on the outer casing, and in addition, the product is provided with increased protection against mechanical stress and high temperature.
11. Unique fireproof Eurocubes (Ecobulk SX-EX-UL), having an outer all-metal jacket (casing) made of galvanized steel sheet and designed in such a way that they can withstand fire for at least 20 minutes before the Eurocube starts to leak (when sprinkler fire extinguishing system).
12. Eurocubes Mauser Repaltainer are partially made of recycled polyethylene (pallet and top cover) and can be used in extreme climatic conditions and withstand high levels of mechanical stress.
II. New Eurocubes of domestic production are a worthy alternative to used imported euro cubes, have an optimal price-quality ratio and are offered at the best market prices.
Sometimes a justified way out, allowing you to save on the purchase of new Eurocubes, can be the replacement of a used bottle with a completely new bottle, complete with a tap and a top cap (new, on order), while the crate with the pallet remains old.
III. Cube corrugated containers, a kind of analogs of Eurocubes, are also available. For most applications, they are reusable, but sometimes they are especially justified when sending goods, for example, to remote objects or for a one-time receipt of goods from a remote place, when it is advisable to use disposable containers (See corrugated containers for bitumen).
All new quality Eurocubes can be offered to you at very competitive prices.

Eurocube is a special tank made of polymer material with a bottom pallet. It is made in the form of a cube. For its strength and practicality in use, it began to quickly spread and be used both in car washes, construction sites, and in the oil and chemical industries. And recently, in ordinary life, an application has been found for this type of reservoir. Strong polymers are used for the manufacture of containers. Recently, polymers have become very popular, as they can replace other stronger and more expensive materials.
Types of Eurocubes
A wide variety of models are offered on the market, differing in different dimensions, materials or volumes. At the same time, it is possible to single out these parameters for general characteristics:
- External mesh (lathing)... Almost always made of a rigid frame, with a pallet installed underneath. Manufactured using steel. Some models may have wooden or plastic pallets. All this completely depends on the purpose for which the eurocube is purchased.
- By form almost always these products resemble a cube. This form is most convenient for transportation or use.
- The tank itself made of durable polyethylene. The manufacturer most often chooses the PE 100 grade of polyethylene for the walls of the container.
- Wall thickness also depends on the purpose of use and most often the range is from 1.5 to 2 millimeters.
- Colors... White is offered as a standard color. But at the same time, if there is a desire, it is possible to paint the eurocube in any other color.
- Water drain tap... It is best to choose a model with a ball valve. It is more reliable and will last longer. Some models are equipped with a piston valve, but it is not as reliable.
By design, Eurocubes are divided into:
A small number of companies are engaged in the production of such tanks in Russia, but despite this, such tanks are widespread due to convenient functions and wide possibilities for various applications. The most common is 1000 liters.
Why and where they are used
These tanks are multifunctional and can be used not only by large industrial enterprises, but also by ordinary summer residents. The second name of the Eurocube is IBC container. It was named so because the main purpose is to transport liquid substances, which can be both conventional and aggressive. There are no analogues of these plastic containers that would be more convenient and would allow you to store and transport bulk and liquid substances.
The tank, which has a volume of 1000 liters, can be used not only by large companies for their own purposes, but also by ordinary people. For example, for arranging your life in a private house. The plastic tank of the Eurocube is very durable and very lightweight, is not exposed to even the most aggressive chemicals and can successfully withstand any atmospheric influences. All these advantages are achieved using the blowing method or, in another way, roto-forming.
Containers can be reused. But it should be borne in mind that if previously there was a transportation of harmful chemicals in it, then it can not be used for all purposes. The remains of harmful substances in any case have eaten into the plastic and can be harmful to health, even if, for example, watering the garden from such a Eurocube. At the same time, if previously an ordinary harmless liquid or ordinary water was transported in a container, then it can be used for domestic needs. There are also companies that can wash and steam eurocube of any size from 1000 liters and more.
Accordingly, depending on the purpose, there is no need to buy a new container. The cost of a used plastic cube will be much less, and the effect is almost equal. If you buy a new plastic container, the price will be high.
How to use the tanks handheld
These plastic tanks are very widespread throughout the country. They are comfortable, versatile and can last for many years. At a summer cottage or in a country house, you can always find the use of a Eurocube capacity, in which 1000 liters. The main purposes of using previously used tanks are:
- The use of a container for watering the garden with water;
- summer shower cabin;
- septic tank from eurocube;
- everyday needs such as washing a car.
It should be noted again that such containers should not be used for storing drinking water. It is not known what was in this container before and there is no way to completely get rid of the chemicals from the walls of the tank. For food purposes, buy a new container and then you can safely use it.
Eurocube dimensions
These tanks also come in standard sizes like other similar products. All the required dimensions are indicated in the upper and lower parts, so that it is clear whether it fits or not. A 1000 liter container is 1200 mm long, 1000 mm wide, and 1160 m high. Of course, deviations of plus or minus 10 mm from these dimensions are possible. The volume is not less than the declared one, and maybe a little more. The mass is about 53 kilograms.
The bulk of the companies that produce Eurocubes closely follow the standard sizes. For this reason, if you want to purchase a Eurocube, it will not be difficult to calculate the size and determine the number of required tanks.
By its design, the Eurocube is a container based on polymers, which is made in the form of a cube. It is no coincidence that these products are frequently used in a variety of applications, including car washes, construction sites, and the petroleum and chemical industries. The reason for this is associated with the high strength characteristics of the material used for this structure. At the same time, ordinary citizens often resort to this device.
Eurocube - types
Today the market offers many models of Eurocubes, which have various dimensions, material and volume. But, despite these features, you can still distinguish general characteristics of these units:
Depending on their purpose, Eurocubes can be classified into the following types:
- food. They are used to store food, and the latter are usually ethyl alcohol, vinegar, oil, etc .;
- technical. They serve as a container for storing and transporting substances such as alkalis, acids, fuels, etc.
In our country, a limited number of firms are engaged in the manufacture of such products. However, even such a small assortment provides them with great popularity among consumers. The reason for this lies in the ease of use and great functionality.
Scope and method of application of the Eurocube
Eurocube - this name is more understandable for ordinary consumers. Officially, his referred to as an IBC container... This is due to the fact that it was originally created for the transportation of liquids, primarily ordinary and aggressive ones.
Such plastic containers are unique products and surpass all other similar goods in terms of ease of transportation of bulk substances and liquids.
A 1000-liter euro cube is considered quite versatile, which can be used by both large companies and ordinary citizens.
Among the advantages that these containers have, it is worth highlighting the amazing strength. At the same time, such structures are not susceptible to the negative effects of any aggressive chemicals and are excellent tolerate atmospheric influences... They can demonstrate such qualities using the method of blowing, which is called roto-forming among technologists.
In some cases, this container can be reused, but it must be borne in mind that if for the first time it served as a container for transporting harmful chemicals, then the next time it is used it is undesirable to use it as a container for watering the garden. As harmful substances are in the Eurocube, they gradually penetrate into the plastic, which is why the water transported in it can negatively affect human health.
Where it is preferable to use a container that was used to transport non-corrosive liquids. Flushing allows you to pretty well remove the remnants of the previous contents, as a result of which the container can serve and for the transport of water intended for household needs. If you have a need for such a capacity, then there is no need to buy a new Eurocube. You can always find someone willing to sell a used product. This will allow you to save money, and this will not affect the efficiency of using such a container. If you want to purchase a new product, then remember that the cost of a Eurocube from the manufacturer will be quite high.
Use of used euro cubes on the farm
These products have gained great popularity due to their convenience, versatility and an unusually long service life. If you are the owner of a summer cottage or a country house, then it will not hurt you to have additional capacity available. volume of 1000 liters... Such a container will be useful for any summer resident, since in this case he will be able to save himself from the hard work of raising water from a well used for irrigation. Most often, the Eurocube is used on the farm to solve the following tasks:
Watering the garden
If you plan to use a eurocube for irrigation, then in addition to this container, you must purchase a pump. This plastic container will have to be placed at a certain height, and you will not have any difficulties with lifting it, since the material used for its manufacture is lightweight, so you can easily lift it together. A pump can be used to fill the barrel with water.
In the event that you have enough time, you can fill the container with water using water tap, to which it is necessary to connect the hose, and then immerse the free end into the hole from above. If you cannot wait for the barrel to be filled with water, then you need to connect the pump to the tap, as a result, it will immediately start supplying water to the place where you plan to use it for irrigation.
Summer shower
Such a container also allows for rapid heating of water. The reason for this lies in the special material from which the container is made. If it's warm enough outside, you only need a couple of hours for the water to warm up to a temperature that is comfortable for bathing.
In this case, the Eurocube can serve you as a summer shower cabin without a pallet. To do this, it is enough to place this container at a certain height, fixing it on a strong iron structure. You can use a hose and pump to supply water to it. Providing a faucet in the design, you will make it easier for yourself to open and close the water flow. A container with heated water can be used by you not only for taking a shower, but also for washing various things, including dishes.
Construction of a septic tank
Eurocube can quite successfully fulfill the role of a septic tank, for the construction of which you do not have to spend a lot of effort and money.
Water for everyday needs
If you own a personal vehicle, then you probably often have to wash your car, paying a lot of money for it. The presence of a summer cottage or a country house allows you to save on this procedure. At the same time, many of us have different needs for water. For example, a Eurocube can solve the problem of filling a pool, for which it is enough to have a pump available. If you often have to water your site using water from a well or well, then the Eurocube will perfectly cope with the role of a storage tank for water.
Typical dimensions of the Eurocube
Eurocube differs little from most other containers, which fully refers to its dimensions, which meet certain standards. If you are thinking of purchasing such a container, then before making a final decision, we recommend that you pay attention to the upper and lower parts of this product: there you can see its dimensions, being guided by which you can easily understand whether this container meets your requirements or not. The 1000 liter Euro cube, which is popular among most consumers, is characterized by the following dimensions.
Tank dimensions 1000 liters:
- Length - 1200 +/- 10 mm.
- Width - 1000 +/- 10 mm.
- Height - 1160 +/- 10 mm.
- Volume - 1000 liters (perhaps more by 50 liters, this is quite acceptable).
- Weight - 53 +/- 10 kg.
The overwhelming majority of companies engaged in the manufacture of Eurocubes pay great attention to dimensional compliance these containers. For this reason, it will be quite easy for any consumer who is interested in such containers to determine how many containers he will need to solve a particular problem.
Conclusion
In recent years, Eurocubes have become increasingly common among ordinary consumers, as well as many companies. These products are distinguished by their versatility, which explains their relevance. However, not every product can be suitable for a customer to meet his needs. First of all, it is necessary to take into account the material from which it is made, as well as the dimensions. All of this can ultimately have an impact on how effectively this container will cope with the task assigned to it.
Eurocube or IBC container(Intermediate Bulk Container) is produced on German equipment in the workshop of the Soyuz enterprise from steel crate and low-pressure polyethylene (HDPE). A eurocube is used for the transportation and storage of liquid and bulk goods (some consumers: food, oil, agricultural, paint and varnish, pharmaceutical, chemical industries).
Description:
Eurocube consists of structural equipment in the form of a rigid outer package (steel crate, pallet made of wood or metal), which contains a plastic (polyethylene) inner container with service equipment installed on it. Eurocubes are made in such a way that the assembled inner container and outer packaging form a single whole and are used as a single complex unit, which is filled, stored, transported or emptied as such. The inner container is not designed to fulfill the function of containing substances without its outer packaging.
Eurocube is designed for transportation and storage of liquid substances, incl. corrosive with a maximum density of 1.5 g / cm3 for containers without UN certification and 1.9 g / cm3 for containers with UN certification.
Eurocube has passed type tests for lifting for the lower part, stacking strength, tightness of seams when exposed to internal pneumatic pressure, strength of containers when exposed to internal hydraulic pressure, and tested in accordance with GOST 18425-73 Filled transport containers. Free fall impact test method. IBC containers are intended for filling only with liquids whose saturated vapor pressure is such that the gauge pressure in the container at 50 degrees Celsius is less than 4/7 of the sum of the indicated test pressure if the filling temperature is 15 degrees Celsius.
Design:
The inner container Eurocube shell is made of high-density low-pressure polyethylene (PE 100). Sheath wall thickness - 1.5 - 2.0 mm (depending on specification).
Sheath color:
- white (natural color of polyethylene)
- or any other by special order.
The container is cubic in shape. On the upper part there is a filler neck with a hole diameter of 150 mm, on which a polyethylene cover is installed, which can be equipped 
wife with a vent valve. In the lower part of the tank, a drain valve is installed with a plunger or ball valve type, and a rubber seal (the type of seal is indicated in the passport).
The outer packaging is a crate of galvanized steel hollow tubes, with a double type of tube fastening (welded plus screw) attached to a wooden or steel pallet with screws.
The upper part of the batten is attached to the main part with a screw connection and can be detached to replace the plastic bottle.
The drain cock is attached to the bottom of the bottle and does not go beyond the dimensions of the cube.
