Product Information

Full details

The Xtrade Flexi-Tub 25L is an essential multi-purpose container designed for DIY enthusiasts, construction professionals, and gardeners who need a robust solution for mixing, carrying, or storing materials. Its primary benefit is its extreme durability and flexibility, allowing it to withstand heavy loads up to 300kg while remaining lightweight. However, users should note that while the material is highly resistant to impact, it can retain stains from aggressive chemical mixtures or oil-based paints over time.

FAQs

Can the Flexi-Tub be used to store water?

Yes, it is waterproof and can be used to hold liquids, though it is primarily designed as an open-top container.

Is the material food-grade?

No, because the tub is manufactured from recycled materials, it is not recommended for food storage or water intended for drinking.

How much does the tub weigh when empty?

The Xtrade Flexi-Tub is designed to be lightweight, typically weighing less than 1kg, making it easy to carry even when fully loaded.

Can I use it for hazardous chemicals?

While resistant, it is not intended for the storage of highly corrosive or hazardous industrial chemicals that may interact with recycled polymers.

Are there different sizes available?

This guide focuses on the 25L version, but Xtrade offers various sizes to suit different volume requirements.

Troubleshooting

Material stuck to sides

Allow the substance to cure fully, then press firmly on the outside of the tub to pop the material out.

Tub feels stiff in cold temperatures

The plastic may stiffen in freezing conditions; let it sit in a warmer area for a few minutes to regain full flexibility.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

There is no complex setup required for the Xtrade Flexi-Tub; simply remove any packaging and it is ready for immediate use. To maintain the life of your tub:

  1. Cleaning: Wash with warm, soapy water after use. For dried materials like cement, allow them to set completely, then flex the tub walls to loosen the contents.
  2. Storage: Always store in a dry, shaded area if not in use for extended periods to preserve the material's integrity.
  3. Chemical Safety: While the tub is durable, avoid using highly corrosive or acidic solvents that could weaken the plastic structure over years of heavy service.
