BUCKHORN

Buckhorn, a brand of Myers Industries, is a manufacturer of reusable plastic packaging and material handling products. The company's history dates back to the mid-20th century, with a focus on injection-molded containers for industrial and commercial applications. Buckhorn's product line includes bulk containers, totes, trays, and lids designed for storage, transport, and in-process handling. These products are used across supply chains in manufacturing, food processing, agriculture, and distribution. Buckhorn containers are constructed from high-density polyethylene (HDPE) or polypropylene, materials selected for impact resistance, chemical compatibility, and long service life. Many models are rated for stacking with loaded capacities, and some are designed for fork-truck entry (2-way or 4-way) to facilitate movement in warehouse or plant environments. Temperature ratings vary by product; for example, certain food-handling containers operate from -20°F to 150°F. Buckhorn offers both collapsible and rigid (non-collapsible) bulk containers, as well as nesting and stack-only totes. Collapsible models reduce return-shipping volume by up to 80% when empty. Lids are available separately for many container sizes, with compatible manufacturer model numbers such as BH4840 or BF4229. Buckhorn products are manufactured in facilities that follow ISO 9001 quality management standards. 3G Electric supplies a range of Buckhorn containers and accessories, including bulk containers in sizes from 12.9 to 13.8 cubic feet, straight-wall totes with 11.4-gallon capacity, and ventilated food-handling trays. The selection covers both standard and extreme-temperature variants. For procurement specialists and plant engineers, Buckhorn containers provide dimensional consistency for automated systems, compatibility with standard pallet sizes, and options for color-coding (black, gray, beige) to support lean inventory practices. 3G Electric stocks these items for global shipment, with no minimum order quantities for most SKUs.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about BUCKHORN from 3G Electric.

What materials are Buckhorn bulk containers made from?

Buckhorn bulk containers are typically molded from high-density polyethylene (HDPE) or polypropylene. HDPE offers good impact resistance and chemical resistance, suitable for industrial environments. Polypropylene is used in some models for higher temperature tolerance. Material selection depends on the specific product series; check the product specifications for each SKU.

Are Buckhorn collapsible bulk containers stackable when loaded?

Yes, Buckhorn collapsible bulk containers are designed to be stackable when loaded, provided the load does not exceed the container's rated capacity. The stacking capability is specified for each model, and some containers feature interlocking feet or lid retention to maintain stability during stacking. Always verify the load rating and stacking height limits in the product documentation.

What is the temperature range for Buckhorn food-handling containers?

Buckhorn food-handling containers, such as the CT292609220500 model, have a minimum operating temperature of -20°F and a maximum of 150°F. These containers are made from HDPE and are suitable for refrigerated or frozen environments. For extreme-temperature applications, verify the specific model's temperature rating, as not all Buckhorn containers are rated for sub-zero use.

Do Buckhorn bulk container lids fit multiple container models?

Buckhorn lids are designed to fit specific container models, indicated by compatible manufacturer model numbers such as BH4840 or BF4229. For example, lid SKU 1XGG8 (MPN TH4840020010000) is compatible with the BH4840 container. Always match the lid's compatible model number to your container's model to ensure proper fit and sealing.

What fork-entry configurations are available on Buckhorn bulk containers?

Buckhorn bulk containers are available with either 2-way or 4-way fork-entry configurations. For example, the non-collapsible BF4229280010000 has 2-way entry, while the collapsible BN3230342010000 has 4-way entry. The entry type affects maneuverability with forklifts or pallet jacks; 4-way entry allows access from all sides, while 2-way limits access to two opposite sides.

Can Buckhorn straight-wall totes be nested when empty?

Buckhorn straight-wall totes, such as the SW3215080201000, are designed for stacking, not nesting. They have straight sidewalls that allow stable stacking when loaded or empty. For nesting capability, look for Buckhorn's nestable tray or container series, which taper to allow empty containers to fit inside one another, reducing storage space.
