Industrial drum sourcing for Belgium
LIFA qualified two drum manufacturers for a Belgian program and coordinated batch testing, with no recorded transit leaks in the reported period.
- The buyer
- An Antwerp, Belgium distributor of industrial and food-grade chemicals.
- The product scope
- Steel and plastic drums; UN-certified, 90,000 units over 12 months. Program value $1.5M.
What needed to change?
UN certification gaps on the prior drum source risked shipping compliance; two leaks in transit damaged customer trust.

We qualified 2 drum manufacturers with leak-testing capability.
We implemented batch leak testing and certification per shipment.
