September 27, 2021

The need for the DuraGreen ® 90" x 48" x 34" Medium-Duty Extended-Length Collapsible Bulk Container

90x48 bulk containers

The team at RPP Containers has over 20 years of expertise in custom fabrication of bulk bins. Servicing a broad range of industries, the RPP team consistently listens to the needs of its diverse base of customers. Overwhelmingly, feedback indicated that extended-length parts that did not fit into standard size bins were the most challenging parts to package throughout the supply chain. RPP’s CustomBulk® division set out to address those pain points for its customers. 

The Challenge

90x48 bulk containers

The challenge was to develop a cost-effective solution for shipping products that are long but lightweight. Parts that are too long to fit into standard-sized bulk bins but too light to justify a heavy-duty steel shipping rack. There are countless automotive and industrial parts that are too long for standard-size bulk bins. Examples include running boards, roof rack rails, fuel lines, side air curtains, tubing, large component parts, industrial materials, raw materials, and commercial supplies.

The Solution

extended length and height bulk containers

The solution that RPP CustomBulk developed was a family of unique custom container sizes. By utilizing multiple best-in-class fabrication processes, RPP achieves numerous extended length and extended height offerings. Custom sizes range from 78 up to 140” in length and heights from 25” - up. Which custom fabrication process is utilized depends upon the desired finished length. 

Custom Fabrication Process

The custom fabrication process utilizes steel reinforcements to join two full bins. Bins are mechanically attached at three fixed points; feet, base, and top of the sidewall. Standard size options are 80x48, 90x48, 114x48, 128x48, and 140x48. Bins are collapsible and are available in multiple drop door configurations.

Hot Plate Welding Process

The hot plate welding process is used to create unique non-standard lengths and heights. Cut & welded bins often include steel reinforcement. Bins are also collapsible and available in multiple drop door configurations. DuraGreen DGC904834-2 medium-duty extended length collapsible bulk container are the most cost-effective solution available to the supply chain today. The RPP CustomBulk team developed the DGC904834 bin to satisfy the most common extended length size requested at an aggressive price point. With a stated capacity of 1,000 lbs. and priced at only $699 (for volumes greater than 25 units), the DGC90 bin is the optimal solution to package extended-length products. DGC90 bins measure 90x48x34” and include a solid floor, drop doors on both 48” sidewalls, 4-way forklift access, and ship eight high when collapsed. Full specifications are available at https://www.rppcontainers.com/Bulk-Containers-90x48/Bulk-Container-45x48x34-1000lb . Small quantities are in stock for immediate shipment, and larger quantities are available within only weeks after order.
All bins are engineered and tested to exceed stated performance ratings. In addition to the ASTM testing protocol of the standard bins, the custom bin test protocol is designed to evaluate durability in real-world material handing environments to ensure that all CustomBulk products will exceed customer expectations every time.
