If my memory serve me well, I recall PP is those brittle plastics. For example, those plastic whistles that kids play with. PE are the 'softer' plastics you use in plastic cup as in those used in water bottle you use in the army.

I would be careful about colored ones as the manufacturing process is such that a colored pigment is used in the injection-moulding process where raw plastics (usually in small granular form and looks like japanese rice) are melted and mixed with the colored pigment to give the colored plastic. Salt water may overtime bleach the plastic and the pigment goes into the water.

I will go for the clear transparent or translucent white plastics type as no colored pigment is added in the manufacturing process.

Carrefour has sale for these tubs now. Dimension is L67.5xW46.5xH39cm. $9.90. Translucent ones with cover.
