Lubricant manufacturer Q8Oils has launched a new recyclable packaging system for oils that it says slashes waste compared to the traditional plastic drum used in the sector.
The 20-litre Q8 OilQube has been developed as an alternative to the plastic drum more commonly used for oils, and Q8 said it produced 84% less waste than a standard drum.
The company added that customers would benefit from significantly reduced disposal costs over those associated with plastic waste from drums.
The packaging comprises a water-resistant recyclable cardboard box with inner plastic bag from DS Smith Speciality Packaging. Q8 said it was also easier to use and, because of its more uniform shape, easier to stack and store.
"We believe in developing and supplying innovative products that reflect customers' demands," said Q8Oils UK country manager Andy Dixon.
"This product is one such innovation that offers a real alternative to plastic drums. Our customers are looking for packaging that is practical and cost-effective to dispose of. The OilQube offers this and more in a box."
The packaging will initially available on products for the agricultural and plant machinery sectors.
