Default Fuel jug material,Same as soap Jug?

[B]Laundry Detergent Jugs are made of HDPE(High Density Poly Ethylene), the same stuff as fuel jugs. However, it is a heavier material and it is opaque, so it will protect your fuel from ultraviolet rays, and it is less gas permeable, meaning that using a laundry detergent jug will prevent the Nitro in your fuel from off gassing through the walls of the jug.

Thanks Christopher Dahle
I just knew there was someone here who knew what materials were used to make that jug.
Many thanks for the information
Much appreciated
