Troubleshooting
Tub seems less flexible than expected
If the tub has been stored in very cold conditions, allow it to warm up to room temperature for a short period. Material properties can change slightly with extreme temperatures.
Handles feel strained under heavy load
Ensure the load is distributed evenly within the tub. While the handles are reinforced, exceeding the 150kg capacity or uneven loading can put undue stress on them.
Material has discolored slightly
Some minor discoloration may occur over time with prolonged exposure to sunlight or certain materials. This is typically cosmetic and does not affect the tub's performance. Clean with mild soap and water.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Faithfull Eco Flex Tub requires no assembly. It is ready for immediate use upon unboxing.
Compatibility: This tub is designed for general-purpose use and is compatible with a wide range of materials, including soil, sand, water, compost, rubble, and household waste. It is not intended for use with sharp, corrosive chemicals that could degrade the plastic over time.
Care: To maintain the tub's condition and prolong its lifespan:
- Cleaning: Rinse out after each use. For stubborn dirt, use a mild detergent and a soft brush or cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads that could scratch the surface.
- Storage: Store in a clean, dry place. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when not in use, although it is designed to be UV resistant.
- Handling: While robust, avoid dragging the tub over excessively rough surfaces or sharp objects that could potentially puncture the material. Always lift using the reinforced handles.
