  • Elkhart Plastics expands its TUFF line with the new E-Series for secure liquid handling.
  • The E-Series is a sustainable, cost-effective Intermediate Bulk Container (IBC).
  • Manufactured at the Middlebury facility, it offers long-term performance and waste reduction.

Elkhart Plastics, a subsidiary of Myers Industries, has announced the expansion of its TUFF product line with the introduction of the E-Series. This new line of Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBCs) is designed to offer a sustainable and cost-effective solution for secure liquid storage, transport, and dispensing. Manufactured at Elkhart's Middlebury, Indiana facility, the E-Series aims to assist businesses in managing both regulated and non-regulated liquid materials effectively.

Unlike traditional IBCs, which often contribute to excess packaging waste and repetitive costs, the E-Series features a reusable design that promotes long-term usability. Its robust, rotomolded base ensures durability and reduces the need for frequent replacements. Additionally, the optimized sloped-bottom design facilitates 99.9% drainage, minimizing product loss and waste, while the TUFF LinQ® Outlet Valve Connection offers a 30% stronger performance compared to similar products.

Cullen Jones, VP of Sales at Myers Industries (MYE, Financial), emphasized the E-Series as a smarter choice for liquid material management, highlighting its environmental responsibility and economic benefits. The E-Series is available for purchase directly from Elkhart or through its dealer network.
