Canister, drum or IBC: which car-care pack size to buy for a wash

A bay's working format is a 20–24 kg canister. Other pack sizes serve different purposes: large packs for a network or large site, small ones for testing a product before buying in volume.

60 kg drums and IBCs for a network or large site

60 kg drums and IBCs from 1 100 kg are bought for a network or large site: their unit price is noticeably lower. Here is how this looks for ActiveBase and ActiveFoam, using catalogue prices:

ActiveBase

60 kgSS79814 890 ₽248 ₽/kg
1200 kgSS218263 390 ₽219 ₽/kg

The comparison is approximate: some pack sizes are measured in litres and others in kilograms.

5 L and 750 mL for testing

Five-litre and 750 mL packs let you try the product before buying in volume: check that it works with your water and equipment, then buy full canisters.

What else to consider

The catalogue price is per pack. The product manufacturer arranges and pays for delivery, which is already included in the product price: no extra payment is needed. There is no minimum order; you can buy one canister. Use the pack-size filter in the catalogue; prices per kilogram or litre appear next to each pack's price on product cards and in the touchless shampoo table.
