If you need to store a single drum, Ultra Hard Top 1- Drum Plus is the perfect solution. It is easy to use and features a simple design. You can use your forklift or drum handling equipment to lift and lower the drum into the bottom sump. The top portion locks onto the lower sump portion and access to the drum is quick and easy via the roll-top door. This product is an excellent investment for protecting your single drum from spills.
Benefit from the industry’s most robust warranty, offering five years of protection against any defects in material or workmanship. Learn more.

It is rotationally moulded using low-density polyethylene.
Yes, the Ultra-Hard Top 1 DRUM Plus is lockable to prevent unauthorised access. There are three points that will require padlocks or zip ties (two to secure the top section to the bottom section and one to lock the roll top).
Yes, as with all UltraTech products that are rotomolded, the Ultra-Hard Top 1 DRUM Plus is made with “built-in” UV protection so that it will have a long outdoor service life.
An Ultra-Drum Lifter or some other drum-handling equipment will be required to lift the drum and lower it into the containment sump.
Yes, the hard top can be moved in one of two ways: (1) it can be forklifted under the “shoulder” of the containment sump (2) the optional dolly – Product CHU0417
No, we do not recommend moving loaded hard tops.
No, the spill pallet is not completely waterproof. It is more accurately described as weatherproof. In other words, in standard weather conditions, your drums and/or containers should be protected and water gathering in the pallets is not a concern. However, during very gusty conditions or very heavy rainfall, some water may get into the unit. It is good practice to inspect the interior of the hard top after any severe weather.
The Ultra-Hard Top 1 DRUM Plus can contain up to 265 litres.
The standard drain is a threaded hole in the sidewall with a 19mm polyethylene plug with NPT threads installed.
The Ultra-Hard Top 1 DRUM Plus can handle uniformly distributed loads of up to 363 Kg.
The Ultra-Hard Top 2 DRUM Plus provides outdoor spill containment for up to two drums so if there’s a possibility of a second drum needing containment in the same area, that would be a good solution.
UltraTech’s general response to this question is at least ten (10) years. You can expect longer, but the actual life is dependent on several factors. UltraTech has been making outdoor spill containment products since 1993. We have a good sense of realistic life expectancy based on all those years of experience. UltraTech uses the highest-rated UV package in the resin formulation it uses to create the longest outdoor life available for a PE product
The most important environmental factors are ultraviolet exposure and chemical exposure. In the absence of chemical compatibility concerns (determined by the UltraTech compatibility chart for PE products), the next most important factor for outdoor, polyethylene spill containment products will be ultraviolet irradiation (UV) exposure. The most important factors with reference to UV are thickness, UV Inhibitor (UVI) content, and pigment color, type, and concentration. Ultraviolet irradiation exposure causes molecular structure and bond changes that result in the embrittlement of PE. Very thin PE can become brittle and fracture in less than a year (think contractor’s PE Visqueen sheeting). Thicker parts take longer to break down. The addition of UV Inhibitors to the PE allows it to sustain more UV exposure without breaking down. Darker pigments, inorganic pigments, and higher concentrations of pigments also individually and collectively will give PE a longer life before appreciable UV damage occurs.
There is an outdoor spill containment product that has been in use in northeast Florida since 1986 and is still in active use today. UltraTech suggests its Ultra-Track Pans, used for outdoor railroad track spill containment, have a minimum of a twenty-year life.
