This classic pumpkin basket is manufactured using low-density polypropylene (PP), a material chosen for its impact resistance and lightweight properties. The injection-molded chassis is designed to be BPA-free, making it suitable for contact with wrapped candy and food items. Specifications indicate that the wall thickness of the pumpkin fluctuates between 0.8mm and 1.2mm, providing enough structural support for a payload of approximately 1.5kg (about 3.3 lbs) of treats.
The handle is made from extruded LDPE, providing flexibility for comfortable transport. To help maintain the shape of the basket, it is best to avoid exceeding the 1.8kg total load limit, as excessive weight can lead to structural elongation of the rim or the handle rivets. The stackable design allows for efficient storage after the season is over. It is recommended to store the pail in a climate-controlled area, as polypropylene can become brittle if exposed to the extreme heat found in attics or garages.
- Lightweight design reduces fatigue for children during long walking routes.
- Nesting capability allows multiple baskets to be stored in a small footprint.
- Standard orange Jack-o'-Lantern design provides high visibility for nighttime safety.
If you require a more flexible storage solution that can hold more volume, the Halloween Kids Storage Basket provides a larger, foldable alternative.
