Oil drum cast in resin
The following colors are generally associated with specific types of chemical contents:
Red: Typically used for flammable materials like gasoline, diesel fuel, and oils. This is a clear warning that the contents require careful handling away from ignition sources.
Yellow: Often indicates oxidizers or other toxic and hazardous materials. This helps first responders and workers quickly assess risks in an emergency.
Blue: Commonly used for industrial-grade hazardous materials, including many acids, lubricants, and solvents. The blue pigment in plastic drums provides a higher resistance to UV light, which helps protect the integrity of the drum and its contents, making them suitable for outdoor storage.
White/Natural: Usually contain corrosive substances such as acids, requiring appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) when handling. White or natural-colored drums are also used when the contents need visual inspection for inventory management.
Green: Generally indicates non-hazardous or low-hazard materials, such as water-based chemicals or food products (if food-grade certified).
Black: May store various waste materials intended for recycling or disposal. Black drums are also used for maximum UV protection but absorb more heat than other colors.
Orange: Often indicates toxic materials that are harmful upon contact or inhalation.
Gray: Can be used for radioactive materials, requiring strict safety protocols.
Purple: Used for materials with long-term health risks, such as carcinogens.
