- Drum tare weight
- Gross weight
- Closure and sealing system
- Palletisation requirements
- Container loading configuration
- Product quality documentation
- Minimum order quantity
- Supplier availability
- Export price and delivery terms
IEC’s supplied Standard RBD Coconut Oil reference includes:
- Colour in 5¼-inch Cell: 0.7–1.0 Red (Max), subject to clarification
- Free Fatty Acid as Lauric: 0.1% Maximum
- Iodine Value (Wijs): 7.5–10.5
- Moisture & Impurities: 0.1% Maximum
These are supplied reference specifications, not independently verified batch results.

2. What Are Steel Drums?
Steel drums are rigid metal containers used to package and transport various liquid or semi-liquid products.
Their suitability depends on the product and the drum’s construction, internal surface, closure system and approved operating conditions.
Not every steel drum is appropriate for refined coconut oil.
3. Why Distributors Consider Drum Packaging
Drum packaging may be considered for:
- Individual package handling
- Warehouse inventory management
- Customer order allocation
- Product traceability
- Distribution to industrial customers
- Facilities without dedicated bulk tank infrastructure
Actual suitability depends on the buyer’s operations.
4. Steel Drum Packaging for Refined Coconut Oil
Before selecting steel drums, buyers should verify:
- Product compatibility
- Packaging cleanliness
- Internal lining
- Closure integrity
- Filling requirements
- Storage conditions
- Transport suitability
No specific drum construction has been verified.
5. Open-Head vs Tight-Head Steel Drums
Steel drums may use different closure designs.
Open-head drums typically have a removable top assembly.
Tight-head drums generally have a fixed top with filling and discharge openings.
The appropriate type depends on the product, filling method and handling requirements.
No particular closure type is confirmed.
6. Internal Drum Coating
The internal surface of a steel drum may require an appropriate protective coating or lining.
Buyers should verify:
- Coating material
- Product compatibility
- Intended-use suitability
- Coating integrity
- Relevant documentation
7. Food-Contact Drum Requirements
For food applications, packaging should meet applicable food-contact requirements.
A steel drum should not automatically be assumed food grade.
Buyers should request suitable evidence for the actual drum and its internal contact surfaces.
8. Industrial Packaging Requirements
Industrial applications may have different packaging criteria.
Relevant considerations include:
- Chemical compatibility
- Cleanliness
- Handling
- Storage
- Closure integrity
- Product contamination risks
9. Drum Capacity
Steel drums are available in different designs and capacities.
However, no actual drum capacity has been confirmed for this offer.
Buyers should request the approved drum specification.
10. Net Weight per Drum
Net weight refers to the weight of the coconut oil inside the drum.
The approved net filling weight depends on the drum and supplier’s filling procedure.
No net fill per drum has been confirmed.
11. Drum Tare Weight
Tare weight is the weight of the empty drum and relevant packaging components.
This is necessary when calculating gross cargo weight.
12. Gross Weight per Drum
Formula:
Gross Weight per Drum = Net Product Weight + Drum Tare Weight
Where applicable, other included packaging components should also be considered.
13. Number of Drums Required
For an order of a specified net product quantity:
Formula:
Number of Drums = Total Net Product Weight ÷ Net Fill per Drum
The final package count must use whole units and the supplier’s approved filling weight.
14. Illustrative Drum Count for a 20 MT Enquiry
The following examples are mathematical illustrations only.
| Hypothetical Net Fill per Drum | Exact Division for 20,000 kg | Whole Drums Needed to Meet or Exceed 20,000 kg |
|---|---|---|
| 180 kg | 111.11 | 112 |
| 190 kg | 105.26 | 106 |
| 200 kg | 100 | 100 |
| 210 kg | 95.24 | 96 |
These values are not confirmed packaging specifications or loading plans.
The actual order quantity and tolerance should be agreed before filling.
15. Net Weight vs Gross Shipment Weight
A shipment of 20,000 kg net coconut oil will have additional packaging weight.
Buyers should distinguish between:
- Net product weight
- Drum tare weight
- Pallet weight
- Securing material weight
- Total gross cargo weight
16. Steel Drum Dimensions
Drum dimensions influence:

Before filling, drums should meet the applicable cleanliness requirements.
Potential concerns include:
- Foreign material
- Residues
- Moisture
- Odours

Reconditioned packaging may be subject to additional restrictions depending on the product and destination.
No new-drum or reconditioned-drum arrangement has been confirmed.
21. Product Temperature During Filling
Coconut oil can change physical state with temperature.
This may affect filling and discharge operations.
