72L Open-Top Plastic Tank
Description
Description
This 72L open-top plastic tank is a compact industrial plastic container ideal for lab work, home projects, aquatics, and light workshop use. Made in the UK from durable MDPE, it provides excellent rigidity even when filled, with a smooth interior that’s easy to clean.
Available in recycled black or food-grade colours, it works as a sturdy plastic tub for fish treatments, sampling, materials handling, and garden tasks. The 72L size is easy to move, simple to store, and far more durable than standard plastic storage boxes or open plastic bins used in similar applications.

Standard vs Heavy Duty
Both versions are built for performance — the difference lies in wall thickness and load capacity.
Standard Duty
Ideal for general use. Strong and robust for solid or dry materials. May flex slightly if filled more than 70% with liquid.
Heavy Duty
Thicker walls provide extra rigidity for liquid loads. Maintains full shape and stability even when filled to 100%.
