Engineering Excellence: The Greif Fibre Advantage
When transporting dry bulk materials, the Greif 20 Gallon Lok-Rim® Drum provides a smart alternative to heavier steel or plastic containers. Engineered for structural rigidity without the excess weight, these drums help reduce shipping costs while maintaining the high level of protection required for industrial applications.
UN Certified for Hazardous Solids
Safety compliance is critical. This drum carries a UN 1G/Y120/S rating, certifying it for the transport of hazardous solids in Packing Groups II and III. The robust sidewall construction and galvanized steel chimes ensure the drum can withstand the rigors of transport without compromising the integrity of your product.
Sustainable & Recyclable Design
Greif fiber drums are a sustainable packaging choice. Manufactured primarily from renewable kraft fiber, they are easily recyclable in many industrial waste streams. The lighter weight also translates to a lower carbon footprint during transit compared to steel drums of similar volume.
Operational Efficiency & Security
The Lok-Rim® closure system is designed for speed and security. The lever action allows for quick opening and closing, while the integrated eyelet accommodates tamper-evident wire seals.
- Smooth Interior: The interior walls are flush and smooth to prevent product entrapment and allow for easy dispensing of powders and granules.
- Stacking Strength: Despite being lightweight, the reinforced steel chimes allow for secure vertical stacking, optimizing warehouse storage space.
- Thermal Insulation: Fiber material naturally offers better thermal insulation than steel, protecting temperature-sensitive solids from rapid fluctuations.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I store liquids in this fiber drum?
No. This specific model is rated for solids (UN "S" rating) only. Putting liquids in a standard fiber drum can compromise the structural integrity of the paper walls. For liquid storage, please view our Poly Drums or IBC Totes.
Is the lever lock ring reusable?
Yes, the heavy-duty steel lever lock ring is designed for repeated opening and closing, making this drum an excellent choice for operations that require frequent access to the contents.
