Madagascar 20L Food-Grade Jerrycan Blow Molding Case Study

Customer Background and Production Need

The customer is an edible oil producer in Madagascar that supplies cooking oil across the island and nearby African markets. Durable packaging is important because filled containers travel long distances through difficult road conditions. The customer has installed more than ten Jonh Huah accumulator-head extrusion blow molding machines over the years.

Technical Challenge

The logistics environment in Madagascar is demanding. During long-distance transport, weak 20L containers can crack or leak after vibration and impact. Wall thickness distribution is especially important on large HDPE containers because thin zones reduce drop resistance and excessive material increases cost. The customer needed a container with better strength and a clean surface appearance.

Jonh Huah's Solution

Jonh Huah supplied the EX-800E accumulator-head extrusion blow molding machine for large food and industrial containers. The machine provides the clamping force and parison shot capacity needed for 20L HDPE containers. Jonh Huah also supported product structure and process adjustment to improve parison stretch and container strength while keeping the package practical for production.

Project Result

After adopting the Jonh Huah setup, the customer reduced transport-related container damage. The 20L HDPE containers maintained better sealing and body strength after long-distance transport on rough roads. Equipment durability and after-sales support helped make Jonh Huah a long-term technical partner for the customer's African market expansion.

Why This Solution Worked

Large food containers require machine stability, suitable parison capacity, mold design, and strength-focused wall distribution. Jonh Huah supported the customer with machine configuration and practical production guidance, including options such as leak testing.
