Delaware-based Greif Bros. will expand its blow-molded industrial plastic container business from 55-gal drums to 275-gal intermediate bulk containers. By the third quarter of this year, it will take delivery on a blow molding machine made by Rikutec in Alternkirchen, Germany.

Gould & Eberhardt (Webster, MA), serves as the U.S. representative for the machinery. The machine, says Greif Bros., has a three-layer coextrusion capacity and a dual press with shuttle to permit the manufacture of two drums or two IBCs simultaneously.
