Barrier Plastics Announces Move to U.S. Production, New UN Rated 20-liter Jerrican



Rancho Santa Margarita, CA, - Barrier Plastics, Inc., a four-year-old company that is the sole U.S. manufacturer of Quoral® BR Baritainers®, is proud to announce it is launching U.S. production of its sustainable packaging products, and beginning production of a new UN Rated 20-liter jerrican that will continue its efforts to contain corrosive and potentially dangerous chemicals.

Barrier Plastics, based in California, is the sole North American manufacturer of Baritainers®, a sustainable packaging alternative that avoids the potential failure of fluorinated packaging or lined steel containers while reducing a product's carbon footprint.

Baritainers® are effective due to a combination of Quoral® Barrier Resin (BR) and a proprietary production process. By processing under well-defined conditions in specially adapted extrusion equipment, Polyamide (PA) is stretched into thin lamellas within a High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) matrix creating a mono-layer barrier. The discontinuous lamellas of PA act as an effective barrier to various chemicals.

The new 20L Baritainer®, featuring a brand new design with a wider 70mm neck, incorporates 5% Quoral® BR50. Other features include:

· an engineered bottom seam for increased seal integrity;

· an enlarged handle area to accommodate large and gloved hands;

· engineered "dimpled" corners for enhanced drop performance;

· a vent feature with an SP-410 thread available.

· FDA Compliant.

This recyclable 20-liter Baritainer® jerrican has an actual 5.2 gallon capacity, with a height of 14'3," width of 10.1'' and length of 10.9." It comes with a 70mm tamper-evident screw cap closure (EPDM gasket) with ¾ NPT Center Reducer.

The 20L Baritainer® jerrican comes standard in white, blue and natural colors, but custom colors are available.
