Why Choose The ECO 250L Mortar Tub In White
If you’re mixing large batches of mortar, render or screed and don’t want the job broken up by constant refills, the 250L capacity gives you room to work through a job without stopping. Because it’s made entirely from recycled MDPE, it carries the same wall thickness and reinforcement as the standard tub, so you’re not trading strength for sustainability. The forklift channels mean it can be moved fully loaded without lifting by hand, and the white finish is simply the natural colour of the recycled material, with no pigments added.
It’s a straightforward choice for contractors who want a tub that holds up to daily site use, stacks away when it’s not needed, and ticks the box for sites working towards greener material sourcing.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How Much Weight Can The Tub Hold Once It's Full Of Mixed Mortar
A full 250L load of wet mortar or screed weighs considerably more than the tub itself, so always use the forklift channels or a suitable lifting aid once it’s loaded rather than moving it by hand.
Can This Tub Be Left Outside Permanently On Site
Yes. The UV-stabilised MDPE is designed to stay outdoors for the long term without becoming brittle, cracking, or breaking down from sun exposure.
How Do I Clean The Tub Between Mixes
Rinse it out with water while any residue is still workable. The smooth interior has no seams or rough patches for material to catch on, so most jobs come clean with a hose and a stiff brush.
Will This Tub Crack If Mortar Is Left To Set Inside It
Set mortar can usually be knocked or chipped out without damaging the tub, but it’s best avoided where possible, as repeated build-up will make future cleaning harder.
Can I Stack Several Of These Tubs When They're Not In Use
Yes, they’re designed to stack and nest inside one another, which keeps yard storage compact between jobs.
Is There A Black Version Of This Tub Available
Yes, we also stock a standard 250L mortar tub in black, which shares the same dimensions and construction but isn’t made from recycled material.
Does The White Colour Make Dirt Or Staining More Obvious Than A Darker Tub
It can show marks from cement and mortar more visibly than a black tub, but this doesn’t affect performance and most staining rinses off if cleaned soon after use.
What's Included When I Order This Tub
Just the tub itself. It arrives ready to use, with no assembly required.
