Janus Vaten is a successful family-run company spanning five generations. We specialise in the entire lifecycle of industrial packaging. We are responsible for the production, reconditioning and recycling of the drums and IBCs in this lifecycle. All packaging is redesigned in such a way that it is suitable for high-quality reuse and can eventually be recycled sustainably. Janus Vaten continually optimises this process in collaboration with its partners.

Janus Vaten’s total concept comprises the production, reconditioning and recycling of industrial packaging. Janus Vaten handles both the production and logistics inhouse. In addition, Janus Vaten has its own storage facility, which enables us to deliver your packaging quickly, with a high level of flexibility.

Janus Vaten strives for sustainability of its processes and products, as well as its client relationships. We believe the recycling and reuse of industrial packaging is important. In addition, one of the challenges is to carry out all processes with the lowest possible energy consumption, a minimum amount of residual waste, and as few air and water emissions as possible. To further reduce carbon footprint, we use solar panels to supply green electricity for our production processes. We are also involved in optimal metal and plastic recycling.

Reconditioning concerns the reuse of products. Janus Vaten uses the latest techniques to thoroughly and chemically clean, repair and assemble the industrial packaging. The metal drums can be used again thanks to reconditioning.

An IBC container is industrial packaging that usually consists of a plastic tank surrounded by a steel frame. Janus Vaten’s IBCs consist of galvanised steel and the inner tank is made of HDPE. In addition, the IBCs are FSSC22000-certified. In addition to large volumes of liquid, you can also transport hazardous substances in these plastic tanks. Whatever your situation, Janus Vaten’s IBCs always offer a customised solution.
