Product Information
Full details
The ProSolve Flexi-Tub - 15 Litre is designed for builders, gardeners, and DIY enthusiasts who need a durable and versatile container for heavy-duty tasks. Its primary benefit is its robust construction from recycled LDPE, offering superior resistance to punctures, tears, and various weather conditions, ensuring long-lasting use. A minor caveat is its 15-litre capacity, which may be insufficient for extremely large projects requiring bulk material transport. Key features include reinforced edges and handles for heavy loads, a flexible yet rigid design that holds its shape, and weather resistance for all-season use.

FAQs
What is the ProSolve Flexi-Tub made of?
It is made from high-density, 100% recycled LDPE (Low-Density Polyethylene) plastic.
How much weight can the tub safely hold?
The tub is designed for heavy materials like rubble and bricks. Always use safe lifting practices and avoid overfilling. Specific weight limits are not provided, but its reinforced construction supports substantial loads.
Is the tub suitable for food storage?
This tub is designed for building, gardening, and DIY tasks. It is not recommended for direct food storage.
How do I clean the Flexi-Tub?
Rinse with water. For tougher dirt, use mild soap and water, then rinse thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
Can the tub be left outside in all weather conditions?
Yes, the tub is resistant to rain, sun, and frost, making it suitable for all-weather outdoor use.
What are the dimensions of the 15-litre tub?
Specific dimensions are not detailed in the product information, but it has a 15-litre capacity.
Does the tub stack effectively?
While its shape-holding ability is good, its flexibility means it might not stack as rigidly as hard-shell containers. Store empty tubs appropriately for space efficiency.
Troubleshooting
Tub appears to be losing its shape under load.
Ensure the load is distributed evenly. The tub is designed to flex slightly but should retain its overall structure. Check for any extreme temperature fluctuations that might affect material stiffness.
Handles feel strained with very heavy loads.
While reinforced, always adhere to safe lifting practices and avoid overfilling. Distribute weight and use both hands when carrying heavy contents.
Surface appears scratched after use.
Minor scratches are cosmetic and do not affect the structural integrity or performance due to the material's toughness. Avoid using abrasive cleaning tools.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
The ProSolve Flexi-Tub requires no assembly and is ready for immediate use. Its material is compatible with a wide range of common building and gardening materials. For cleaning, simply rinse with water. Mild soap can be used for stubborn dirt, followed by a thorough rinse. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or sharp objects that could potentially scratch the surface, although the tub is designed for high resistance. Store in a dry place when not in use to prolong its lifespan, though it is designed for outdoor exposure.
