Is the pail suitable for salt brine?

HDPE resists salt brine and organic acids. Confirm the salt concentration and expected immersion time so that the correct wall thickness can be specified.

Which migration tests are available?

Overall and specific migration testing is available for acid and brine food simulants under EU 10/2011 and LFGB conditions.

Can the pail be used for retail packs?
