Wholesale Recycled Packaging: Recycled Plastic Jerrycans and Buckets
Recycled packaging is a group of plastic products that enables recycled raw materials to be reused in packaging production. When selecting packaging, it is important to consider not only the use of recycled material, but also product strength, filling conditions, lid or cap structure and performance during transportation.
At Serdar Plastik, we manufacture wholesale recycled packaging for different applications. Our current product range includes a 10 L Recycled Plastic Handled Jerrycan and 18 kg recycled plastic bucket options in green, black and grey.
When selecting packaging made from recycled raw material, the intended application should be determined in advance. Chemical, industrial and other products may have different packaging requirements. The characteristics of the product to be filled, the weight the packaging will carry and the storage duration should be evaluated together.
Before moving to mass production, sample filling with the actual product is useful. This makes it possible to check whether the jerrycan or bucket retains its shape when full, whether the cap or lid closes properly and whether any problems occur during transportation.
Recycled Plastic Packaging
Recycled plastic packaging consists of bottles, jerrycans, buckets and other packaging produced by reintroducing plastic raw material into the manufacturing process.
For this type of packaging, it is not sufficient to consider only the proportion of recycled raw material. The product in which the packaging will be used, fill quantity, body strength and transportation conditions are also important.
When selecting wholesale recycled packaging, the dimensions of the existing filling line should also be taken into consideration. If the height, base width or neck structure of the new packaging is not compatible with the existing machinery, additional adjustments may be required during production.
Colour can also be important depending on the project. The availability of green, black and grey buckets in the recycled product range provides alternatives for branding, application or product differentiation.
10 L Recycled Plastic Handled Jerrycan
The 10 L Recycled Plastic Handled Jerrycan is a recycled plastic packaging model that can be considered for filling, transporting and storing high-volume products.
The product code is 1 100 019. The jerrycan measures 227 mm in width, 325 mm in height and 192 mm in depth.
At a 10-litre capacity, the total weight of the packaging is higher when full than with small bottles. Therefore, it is important that the carrying handle is comfortable to hold, the body retains its shape and the base remains stable.
The jerrycan has a label area measuring 173 mm in width and 160 mm in height. If a new label is being prepared or an existing label will be used, its compatibility with this area can be checked in advance.
The production material is specified as PE. However, the fact that the packaging is described as PE or recycled packaging should not automatically be taken to mean that it is compatible with the product to be filled.
If a chemical or other industrial product will be filled, sample storage and leak-tightness testing with the actual product is recommended.
Shipping Capacity of the 10 L Recycled Jerrycan
For wholesale recycled jerrycan orders, pallet and vehicle capacity affect logistics costs in addition to the unit product price.
The published shipping information for the 10 L Recycled Plastic Handled Jerrycan is as follows:
- Pallet: 140 units
- 20′ DC container: 1,260 units
- 40′ HC container: 3,080 units
- Truck: 4,620 units
The actual shipping plan may be evaluated separately according to the order configuration, cap packaging, pallet type and other logistics conditions.
18 Kg Recycled Plastic Buckets
An 18 kg recycled plastic bucket is wide-mouth plastic packaging that can be used for filling and transporting a large quantity of product in a single package.
Serdar Plastik’s current recycled packaging range includes three different 18 kg buckets:
- 18 kg Recycled Plastic Green Bucket
- 18 kg Recycled Plastic Black Bucket
- 18 kg Recycled Plastic Grey Bucket
All three models are listed with dimensions of 282 mm in width, 283 mm in height and 280 mm in depth.
The buckets have a label area measuring 968 mm in width and 279 mm in height. The large label surface allows brand design and product information to be displayed more easily on the packaging.
When an 18 kg package is full, transportation and storage conditions become more important. Pallet arrangement, stacking and body strength during long-term storage should be taken into account.
18 Kg Recycled Plastic Green Bucket
The 18 kg Recycled Plastic Green Bucket is a recycled plastic bucket model with product code 1 400 039.
The product measures 282 × 283 × 280 mm. The label area is specified as 968 × 279 mm.
The green body colour can provide an option for differentiating product or brand groups.
Compatibility with the product to be filled should be checked before placing a production order. Especially for high fill weights, the body and base behaviour of the full bucket can be evaluated using samples.
The published shipping information for this product is:
- Pallet: 396 units
- 20′ DC container: 3,960 units
- 40′ HC container: 7,920 units
- Truck: 10,296 units
18 Kg Recycled Plastic Black Bucket
The 18 kg Recycled Plastic Black Bucket is a recycled plastic bucket model with product code 1 400 114.

Recycled PE and PP Packaging
PE and PP are two different raw material groups used in plastic packaging production. The material used for recycled packaging may vary according to the structure and intended application of the packaging.
Serdar Plastik’s 10 L Recycled Plastic Handled Jerrycan is specified as being produced from PE. The black and grey 18 kg recycled buckets are specified as PP products.
Raw material selection can affect body structure, production method and performance during use.
However, product suitability should not be determined based only on the PE or PP designation. The characteristics of the product to be filled and usage conditions should also be evaluated.
PCR / PIR-Compatible Recycled Packaging
Recycled raw material options such as PCR and PIR may be considered in recycled packaging projects. Which raw material and what proportion can be used depends on the manufacturing method and intended application of the packaging.
It may not be possible to use the same recycled raw material percentage for every product. The mechanical strength of the bottle, jerrycan or bucket and its compatibility with the product to be filled must be maintained.
For this reason, in a new PCR or PIR packaging project, the target recycled content, product capacity, application sector and annual order quantity should be evaluated together.
Colour expectations should also be specified at the beginning of the project. Packaging containing recycled raw material may require different evaluation of colour and surface appearance compared with standard products.
What Should Be Considered When Selecting Recycled Packaging?
Recycled plastic packaging should not be selected based solely on environmental objectives. The packaging must also perform its intended function throughout production and use.
The following points can be evaluated when selecting a product:
- Characteristics of the product to be filled
- Packaging capacity
- PE or PP production preference
- Recycled raw material requirement
- Packaging colour
- Cap or lid structure
- Label area
- Filling line dimensions
- Palletisation arrangement
- Storage duration
- Shipping distance
- Order quantity
When this information is determined in advance, it becomes easier to select the most suitable model from the existing recycled products.
Colour Selection for Recycled Packaging
Colour is an important detail in recycled plastic packaging in terms of product appearance and brand design.
Serdar Plastik’s current recycled bucket range includes green, black and grey options.
When selecting a colour, how the label design will appear on the bucket should also be evaluated. Especially on dark-coloured bodies such as black, it is important that label and print colours provide sufficient contrast.
If a new colour is required, the order quantity, target colour and recycled raw material structure should be evaluated together.
Wholesale Recycled Packaging Prices
Wholesale recycled packaging prices may vary according to the selected product model, capacity, raw material structure, colour and order quantity.
The 10 L recycled plastic jerrycan and the 18 kg recycled plastic bucket do not have the same production method, dimensions or shipping capacity. Therefore, comparing prices only on a per-product basis may not provide an accurate result.
The main factors that may affect recycled plastic packaging prices include:
- Packaging volume or capacity
- Jerrycan or bucket model
- Raw material used
- Recycled raw material structure
- Packaging colour
- Cap or lid requirement
- Label or decoration requirement
- Order quantity
- Palletisation method
- Delivery and shipping location
When requesting a price for the 10 L recycled plastic jerrycan, specifying product code 1 100 019 makes the quotation process easier.
For 18 kg recycled plastic bucket prices, it should be specified whether the green, black or grey model is required. The green model is listed under product code 1 400 039, while the black model is listed under product code 1 400 114.
For an accurate quotation, the product name, product code, order quantity, colour, cap or lid requirement and delivery address can be provided together.
Product List and Capacity Table
The table below includes four products in Serdar Plastik’s current Recycled Packaging category.
| Product Name | Product Code | Capacity | Production | Dimensions | Label Area | Pallet | 20′ DC | 40′ HC | Truck |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

The information in the table has been prepared according to the current technical and shipping values published on Serdar Plastik’s product pages. The production material is not specified on the green bucket product page, while the product code is not specified for the grey bucket, so the relevant fields have been left blank.
The suitability of the packaging for a specific product should not be determined solely from the technical information in the table. Sample filling and storage testing with the actual product is recommended.
Use of Labels on Recycled Packaging
The label area is important for displaying the product name and brand information properly on the packaging.
The label area of the 10 L Recycled Plastic Handled Jerrycan is 173 × 160 mm.
The 18 kg recycled buckets have a large label area of 968 × 279 mm.
If an existing label design will be used, it should be compared with the packaging label area before production.
Especially if the same label will be used on buckets in different colours, how the label appears on the green, black and grey bodies can be evaluated separately.
Filling and Cap / Lid Control
Reliable performance of recycled packaging on the filling line is important for mass production.
For the 10-litre jerrycan, the neck structure and cap should be compatible with the filling equipment. After filling, the cap should close completely and the product should not leak outside the packaging.
For 18 kg buckets, the wide-mouth structure can make filling easier. However, the lid used must fit the bucket opening properly.
For liquid products, cap or lid sealing is more important. For solid or high-viscosity products, it should be checked that the lid does not come off during transportation.
Before starting mass production for a new product, it is useful to test the packaging and cap or lid on the actual filling line.
Packaging Control from Filling to Shipment
Recycled plastic packaging should do more than simply contain the product; it should also perform properly throughout filling, closing, labelling, storage and shipping.
When the jerrycan or bucket is full, there should be no excessive body flexing, deformation of the base or opening around the cap or lid area.
If packages will be stacked on pallets, the load placed on the products underneath should be taken into account.
Especially if 18 kg buckets will be stored full for long periods, the body strength of the products in the bottom row of the pallet becomes more important.
For long-distance shipping, suitable securing should be used to prevent the packaging from moving on the pallet.
Product Compatibility for Recycled Packaging
The use of recycled raw material does not mean that the packaging can be used in the same way for every product.
Compatibility with the product to be filled should be evaluated according to product composition, viscosity, filling temperature and storage duration.
The following points can be checked during sample testing:
- Whether the body softens
- Whether the packaging swells
- Whether the base retains its shape
- Whether leakage occurs from the cap or lid
- Whether the handle maintains its strength under the filled weight
- Whether the packaging colour or surface changes
- Whether deformation occurs during long-term storage
Especially for products with special formulations, sample testing with the actual product provides more reliable results.
Multilayer Recycling Technology
Multilayer packaging is a production method in which the body is formed from more than one plastic layer. This structure can allow recycled raw material to be used in different layers according to project requirements.
Serdar Plastik states that it has been producing with 20-litre, three-layer, recycling-compatible production technology since 2021.
In this production structure, keeping recycled or scrap material in an intermediate layer can help limit direct contact with the product.
Which products will be produced using a multilayer structure and the layer configuration to be used should be determined on a project basis.
A packaging product listed in the standard recycled product category should not automatically be assumed to have the same layer structure. The technical structure should be confirmed on a product-by-product basis.
Lightweight Plastic Packaging
In sustainable packaging projects, not only the use of recycled raw material but also the total amount of plastic used for the packaging is important.
Producing packaging heavier than necessary increases raw material consumption. Producing it too light, on the other hand, can negatively affect transportation and stacking performance.
For this reason, the correct body weight should be determined according to packaging capacity and usage conditions.
Serdar Plastik’s sustainability initiatives also include lightweight packaging designs.
For 20-litre industrial packaging, a jerrycan designed at 750 grams aims to reduce raw material and energy use.
Recycling and Energy Efficiency
The sustainability approach of recycled packaging is not limited to the raw material used. Energy and water consumed during production are also part of the overall manufacturing process.
Serdar Plastik states that its production infrastructure includes investments in electric machinery, heat recovery and manufacturing technologies capable of using recycled raw materials.
The three-layer recycling-compatible production technology also aims to reduce electricity and water consumption.
When developing a new recycled packaging project, not only the proportion of recycled raw material but also the body weight and logistics structure can be evaluated together.
Serdar Plastik’s Experience in Recycled Packaging Production
Serdar Plastik has been manufacturing in the plastic packaging industry since 1985. The company has four production facilities located in Tuzla, Dilovası, Susurluk and Hatay.
The production infrastructure includes single-layer and multilayer packaging made from polyethylene and polypropylene.
Serdar Plastik invests in production technologies suitable for using recycled raw materials and develops recycled packaging projects in addition to its existing products.
According to the company’s current corporate data, Serdar Plastik has more than 300 specialist employees, exports to more than 15 countries and has an annual production capacity of 17,500 tonnes.
For a new recycled packaging project, product capacity, body design, raw material structure, colour, label area and estimated order quantity can be evaluated together.
Custom Recycled Packaging Projects
A standard 10 L jerrycan or 18 kg bucket may not meet the requirements of every project. Projects requiring a different capacity, body design, colour or recycled raw material structure can be evaluated separately.
Before starting a new recycled packaging project, it is useful to prepare the following information:
- Type of product to be filled
- Required packaging volume or capacity
- Preference for jerrycan, bottle or bucket
- Target recycled raw material structure
- Packaging colour
- Cap or lid requirement
- Label area
- Filling line information
- Palletisation conditions
- Delivery location
- Estimated annual order quantity
Once this information is available, a suitable model can be selected from the existing recycled products or a new project requirement can be evaluated separately.
