About this pack
What you get
A 20-liter jerrycan holds enough oil to fill or top up most commercial fryers in one go. Jerrycans are made of food-grade plastic with a strong handle and a screw cap with a tamper-evident seal, and they stack on pallets for storage and shipping.
They are the default pack for frying oils such as palm olein, deep frying oil and high-oleic oils, and they suit restaurants, fast food chains, takeaways and smaller food producers. Fifty jerrycans make the 1,000-liter quote minimum.
