Specifications

1 L bucket specifications

The bucket comes in two versions built on the same body: food-grade and medical. Dimensions, weight and volume are identical; only the purpose and color differ. Every 1-liter bucket we supply to Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan is molded at our plant in Bishkek.

The gap between the nominal capacity and the ISO volume is the headspace to the brim. A nominal 1 L is the working fill, while the bucket holds 1.18 L filled to the very top. When packing thick products, this headspace lets the lid snap on without squeezing product out.

Purchasing calculation

How much product fits in a 1 L bucket

A liter is a volume, but buyers think in kilograms. Below is the conversion for the products most often packed in this size, plus how many buckets you need per tonne of finished product.

ProductDensityNet weight at a 1 L fillBuckets per 1 tonnePallets of buckets per 1 tonne

Water-based paint1.50 kg/L1.50 kg6670.10
Primer1.02 kg/L1.02 kg9800.15

Densities are typical values. Our sales manager will recalculate the volume for your recipe using your product data. A pallet holds 6,480 buckets, the densest stacking in the range.

Order calculator

How many pallets and trucks for 1 L buckets

A pallet holds 6,480 buckets and stands 2.62 m high. A standard 13.6 m truck takes 33 pallets, or 213,840 buckets. Enter your quantity or product weight and we will show the pallets, packaging weight and truck load.

Trailers and containers are calculated on standard internal dimensions, with single-stacked pallets (no double stacking). Your sales manager will confirm the price and lead time for the order.

Applications

Typical uses for the 1 L bucket

The 1-liter size covers retail packs in food production and small containers for paints and coatings. It is most popular with apiaries, dairies, preserve makers and DIY stores across Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan.

Honey and jam

The go-to retail format for apiaries around Issyk-Kul, Talas and the Chuy Valley, and in Kazakhstan for beekeepers in the Almaty and East Kazakhstan regions. The tight-fitting lid keeps moisture out.

Sour cream and dairy

A format for small dairies and family farms around Bishkek and Almaty. Polypropylene stands up to washing and freezing.

Pickles and preserves

Cucumbers, wild garlic and mixed pickles for markets in Bishkek, Osh and Shymkent. The 180 ml headspace stops brine from pushing the lid off when temperatures change.

Paint and primer

Sample pots and small touch-up jobs for DIY stores. Polypropylene does not react with water-based formulations, and leftovers under the lid do not dry out.

Components

Lid, handle, color, and printing

Lid

Supplied with the bucket and seals around the entire rim. Opens via a tamper-evident tear strip marked OPEN.

Handle

Plastic, weighing just 1.3 grams: a 1-liter bucket does not need metal. Metal bail handles start in the range from 2.3 liters.

Color

White suits labels and full-surface printing. Clear is the choice when shoppers need to see the product: honey and jam are most often packed in clear buckets.

Printing

A label on the finished bucket, or IML: the image is fused into the wall during molding, so it will not rub off or peel when washed.

Medical version

1 L medical bucket: the same body

For hospitals, private clinics, dental practices and laboratories in Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan.

  • Same body and dimensions as the food-grade bucket
  • Yellow and red for waste class color coding
  • For Class B waste (by Kyrgyz sanitary classification), used needles and disinfectants
  • Tight-fitting lid with a tamper-evident tear strip

Nearby sizes

One liter or a nearby size

If a liter does not match your net weight, the nearest sizes in the range are 900 ml and 2.3 liters. Volume is only part of the picture: packaging weight per liter of product matters too, and on large runs it translates straight into money.

PK101 L36 g36.0 g6,480
PK232.3 L62 g27.0 g3,300

A liter uses packaging more efficiently than 900 ml. If your pack format allows you to go up, the 2.3 liter size cuts packaging per liter of product by a quarter. If retail dictates the format, the liter remains the best option.

Frequently asked questions about 1 L buckets

There is no fixed price list: 1-liter buckets are priced per order. The price depends on run size, version, printing and delivery distance. Call +996 222 600 292 or request a callback, and our sales manager will quote a price including delivery to your city.

A plastic one weighing 1.3 grams. That is plenty for a liter: a full bucket weighs about 1.5 kilograms. Buckets with a metal bail handle start at 2.3 liters in our range, and a plastic grip on the handle comes in from 8 liters.

Yes, in pallets of 6,480 to Almaty, Astana, Shymkent, Karaganda and other cities. Both countries are in the EAEU, so no customs clearance is needed, and the cost is based on the number of pallets.

Pickup from our warehouse in the Bishkek Free Economic Zone (Ak-Chiy village). We deliver with our own vehicles across Bishkek and the Chuy Region, and ship to Osh, Jalal-Abad and Karakol via a freight carrier.

The nominal capacity is the working fill, while ISO measures the full volume to the brim. The 180 ml headspace lets the lid snap on without squeezing product out and gives brine or thick products room to expand.

6,480, the densest stacking in our bucket range. For comparison, a pallet of 2.3 liter buckets holds 3,300.

Yes, in two ways: a label, or IML with the image fused into the bucket wall. IML requires a production run, while labels work for small orders too.

Polypropylene keeps its properties at sub-zero temperatures: for storage at minus 18 °C and below, leave headspace for expansion. The bucket withstands brief heating, but hot filling can make the body shrink, so we select a specific version for it.
