Product Information
Full details
The Faithfull Eco Flex Tub is an essential, heavy-duty utility container designed for trade professionals, gardeners, and homeowners who need a reliable solution for hauling materials or organizing workspace debris. With a robust 150kg load capacity and reinforced handles, it excels at transporting heavy, awkward items; however, users should note that while the flexible material is highly impact-resistant, it is not intended for storing corrosive chemicals or extremely sharp, uncontained objects that could puncture the polyethylene surface.

Troubleshooting
Tub becomes deformed after heavy loading
Place the tub in a warm environment and reshape it by hand; the flexible material will return to its original form.
Stubborn residue (cement/plaster) sticking to the interior
Allow the material to dry completely, then flex the sides of the tub; the residue will typically crack and break away from the surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
There is no setup required for the Faithfull Eco Flex Tub; it is ready to use immediately upon receipt. To maintain the integrity of the material, it is recommended to wash the tub with mild soap and water after transporting wet concrete, cement, or soil. While the tub is designed to be tough, avoid storing it in direct sunlight for extended periods over several years to maintain the polymer's structural integrity. When loading the tub with heavy items, distribute the weight evenly to prevent the base from bowing over time.
