A comprehensive solution
Every year, significant quantities of potentially hazardous materials are transported in plastic barrels and intermediate bulk containers (IBC) also called Totes. We reclaim and recondition these large containers, turning them into a useful and sustainable resource. RPM eco ensures responsible and safe management of industrial containers by offering reconditioned IBC Totes certified to Transport Canada standards.
A safe solution
When transporting hazardous materials, ensuring tightness and the safety of your employees and the environment are crucial.
We share your concerns and have established a rigorous process for inspecting, reconditioning, and recertifying intermediate bulk containers (IBCs or Totes), allowing you to conduct your activities safely and with peace of mind.
The solution to optimize your costs and ESG commitments
RPM eco provides a comprehensive solution for your empty large containers. We offer reconditioning and recertification services, the sale of IBCs with new or refurbished bottles, and complete recycling of non-reusable containers.
We handle the purchase and sale of large containers and also provide decontamination and washing services for IBCs.
Regardless of the classification, we ensure the management and upgrading of your large containers by testing their tightness in accordance to UN norms and compliant with Transport Canada standards.

Through our sophisticated recycling processes, we offer a sustainable solution for non-degradable materials and prevent the disposal of contaminated plastics in landfills. These plastics can be recycled and reused up to 60 times.
