Customer Reviews
Bought 500 pieces of 20L cans for my paint business. Quality is excellent, no leaks, and the price is very competitive. BuildMate delivered on time. Will order again!
These 20L jelly cans are exactly what my customers ask for. Sturdy, good quality steel, and the lids seal perfectly. Great wholesale prices and reliable stock.
We use these for packaging bulk engine oil and grease. The epoxy lining prevents rust, and they stack neatly in our storeroom. Highly recommended for industrial use.
