Make Recycling a Seamless Part of Your Business

At North Coast Container (NCC), we put our customers first. That means designing and manufacturing steel drums that support a closed-loop life-cycle and are built for long-term use, reuse, and complete recyclability.

NCC steel drums are built to support long-term use and end-of-life recyclability through a wide network of third-party providers. Across the United States, certified organizations offer reconditioning and recycling services that help extend the useful life of your packaging. To find a qualified provider, we recommend visiting the Reusable Industrial Packaging Association (RIPA).
