Elkhart Plastics, a Myers Industries Company, Adds E-Series to TUFF Line, Expanding Solutions for Secure Liquid Handling
AKRON, Ohio--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Elkhart Plastics, a leading rotational molder, has expanded its TUFF line with the new E-Series—a durable, sustainable, and cost-effective IBC (Intermediate Bulk Container) engineered specifically to protect liquids during storage, transport, and dispensing. Manufactured at the company's Middlebury, Indiana, facility, the TUFF E-Series™ helps businesses safeguard both regulated and non-regulated liquid materials across a range of commercial and industrial operations, from chemical manufacturing to waste management to water treatment. Unlike traditional limited-use IBCs that generate excess packaging waste and recurring costs, the E-Series is a reusable alternative that delivers long-term performance and features: Rotomolded Base —Tough, impact-resistant base delivers protection against rigorous use and reduces replacement costs. Optimized Drainage —Sloped-bottom design yields 99.9% drainage, reducing product loss and waste. Superior Valve Connection —TUFF LinQ® Outlet Valve Connection is 30% stronger when tested against a comparable brand and features an integrated male cam-lock fitting with dust cap to protect against leaks and downtime. 'The new E-Series builds on the proven strengths of our TUFF line and gives customers a smarter way to protect, handle, and store liquid materials,' said Cullen Jones, VP of Sales at Myers Industries. 'It also reflects our commitment to innovation and quality. Reusable, environmentally responsible, and economically viable, the E-Series cuts waste, lowers costs, and delivers long-term value—setting a new standard for IBC performance in liquid handling.' The E-Series is available for purchase directly from Elkhart or through the company's dealer network.

Elkhart Plastics, a Myers Industries Company and recognized leader in rotational molding, introduced its new Vertical Water Storage Tanks—broadening its product portfolio and marking its entry into a new market. AKRON, Ohio, May 06, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Elkhart Plastics, a Myers Industries Company and recognized leader in rotational molding, introduced its new Vertical Water Storage Tanks—broadening its product portfolio and marking its entry into a new market. Designed to protect people, livestock, crops, and property, these vertical storage tanks support a wide range of commercial and residential water needs. From crop irrigation and livestock care to manufacturing processes and fire suppression, they provide reliable access to water—critical in regions facing water scarcity. The tanks also protect resources by enabling bulk water storage, well water collection, and rainwater harvesting. Elkhart's Vertical Water Storage Tanks have been engineered for durability and cost-efficiency, making them the ideal choice in many operations. Constructed from UV-resistant, FDA-approved high-density polyethylene, the tanks come with a 10-year limited warranty and currently are available in four sizes—1,000-, 1,500-, 2,500-, and 3,000-gallon capacities—with more sizes planned. The tanks also feature key design elements that enhance performance: Multiple connection points —risers and tie-downs with flat surfaces offer greater flexibility for additional fittings Dual manway lids —provide more flexibility for secure top-down access Integrated air bleeds —help maximize fill efficiency and minimize fill time Tough tank top—large radii and increased wall thickness safeguard against sun exposure "The launch of our Vertical Water Storage Tank underscores our commitment to innovation, quality, and sustainability," said Cullen Jones, V.P. of Sales for Rotational Molding at Myers Industries. "As water becomes an increasingly precious resource, effective storage and conservation are vital to maintaining ecosystems, supporting human populations, and ensuring a sustainable future.
