16litre

16litre is a capacity designation used in product naming and packaging to denote a container that can hold 16 litres of liquid or other material. While the term is not tied to a specific global standard, it is widely understood in contexts where volume is a key specification.

Applications span consumer and industrial goods. Common examples include storage bins, water and fuel containers, paint cans, cleaning chemical bottles, and other bulk packaging. The 16-litre designation helps buyers compare sizes across brands and ensures compatibility with bulk handling systems.

Measurement context: one litre equals 1,000 cubic centimeters; 16 litres equal 16,000 cubic centimeters, 0.016 cubic metres, about 4.23 US gallons or 3.53 UK gallons.

Regional spelling and hyphenation vary. The term can appear as 16L, 16-litre, or 16 liter depending on locale and branding.

In regulatory terms, containers of this size may be subject to packaging, labeling, and material safety standards depending on their contents.
