[NHCOLL-L:3289] RE: Gallon Size Clear Plastic Containers

[Simmons, John E]

Christine,

You might consider PET containers as an alternative-less oxygen
permeance, clearer, more durable, and available in many sizes. I have
seen gallon size PET-you might check with Gaylord.  Also, check out
their large polycarbonate containers.

we are in search of clear plastic (polypropylene preferred) containers
for the storage of alcohol collections.  Can anyone provide a lead for
such containers before we broaden our so far successful search?

many thanks for any information that you can provide, Chris
