  • Where to find UV stable containers to store feeds etc in greenhouse?

    In the greenhouse many of the containers feeds are stored in have started to become brittle and fall apart due to UV exposure. The containers were laundry detergent liquid sachet things which were the right size for a box of BFB and they stacked neatly.

    I'm therefore looking for containers with tight-fitting lids to store these feeds in that are UV-stable so will last several years and will take a knock or a 1.5m drop to the deck.
    There's nowhere else really to store it and shading the containers hasn't really worked (I'm not looking for advice on that)
    I had a look on some of the sites that I normally get lab stuff from but most of the stuff being for inside the sites didn't state whether the containers were UV-stable. After a few hours I lost patience.

    There's nothing too nasty to be contained, just feeds and meals for the greenhouse and garden; seaweed, blood fish and bone and suchlike. COSHH and CHIP compliant labelling (which is UV-stable) MSDSes where applicable are sorted. The shop-bought boxes of stuff my late dad bought are falling to bits with damp and faded so the writing won't be legible for long.

    Any container suggestions?
    Even if I have to raid the recycling centre across the road and pick out stuff that happens to be UV stable.
    Many thanks
