Steel drums are used for storage and transportation of both hazardous and non-hazardous materials such as chemicals, coatings, paints and oil, etc. Steel drums are prepared by the process of roll forming, then welded by the electric resistance welding method, and lastly coated and painted. Recyclability, compactness, and excellent performance in a wide range of temperature are the main reasons why steel drums are preferred over alternatives like fiber and plastic drums. The two main categories of steel drums are tight-head steel drums and open-head steel drums.
The global steel drums market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 5.4% during the forecast period – 2018-2027. The Asia Pacific steel drums market is expected to remain in the foremost position, during the forecast period. Steel drums continue to be a feasible option for storing and transporting chemicals, lubricants, flammable & combustible materials and more due to their fire resistant properties. Steel drums prove to be a reliable solution to the bulk packaging needs. These properties are anticipated to further propel the demand for steel drums in the global steel drums market during the forecast period.
