5L Rectangular HDPE Carboy with Handle — UN-Rated for Hazardous Liquids, 30/Case
The Globe Scientific 5L Rectangular HDPE Carboy (601781) is a multi-purpose industrial liquid storage vessel for labs and facilities that need to store, mix, and dispense solvents, cleaning solutions, and bulk reagents at the 5-liter scale with UN transportation compliance. The rectangular design provides efficient stacking and shelf storage compared to round carboys of equivalent volume, and the comfortable HDPE handle enables safe single-handed carrying and pouring. Tamper-evident DIN-standard caps follow international packaging recommendations, and the 5L size meets UN regulations for transport of dangerous liquids. Approved for food contact. 30 per case.
Key features
- UN-compliant construction at 5L — this size conforms to UN regulations for transport of dangerous liquids, enabling the carboy to serve as both a storage and compliant shipping container for hazardous liquid reagents without additional secondary packaging
- Rectangular geometry stacks efficiently in chemical storage cabinets and on laboratory shelving, using shelf space up to 30% more efficiently than round carboys of equivalent volume — critical in labs managing large numbers of solvent and reagent containers in limited storage space
- Tamper-evident DIN-standard screwcap provides secure closure with visible tamper evidence — the standard for chemical storage vessels in industrial and laboratory environments where container integrity documentation matters
- High-density polyethylene construction resists most common laboratory solvents, cleaning chemicals, and aqueous reagents at working concentrations — and the food-contact approval extends the application range to food-grade liquid storage without additional material certification steps
