In the recent past, Flexible Intermediate Bulk Container bags, also known as FIBC, have become the go-to choice for the storage industry. And, why not? FIBC big bags are cost-effective, ideal for bulk storage, reusable, recyclable, among many other benefits. Moreover, over years, FIBC bags have evolved to cater to different industries to scale-up adoption.
So, if you’re considering shifting to using FIBC bags, then here are the factors to consider. This can help you identify the ideal FIBC bag manufacturers.
1. Type of Material: FIBC bag manufacturers use standard categorization as per the physical properties and their ability to protect from electric shocks. The categories are:
a. Type A: are standard FIBC bulk bags usually manufactured using woven polypropylene, calcium carbonate and UV additive. They are strong, flexible, dependable and cost-effective. They cannot be used to store flammable products.
b. Type B: are also made with a woven polypropylene and is similar to type A. But they come with a thin coating that protects the user against sparks.
c. Type C: include carbon filaments (non-conductive polypropylene material) to protect from flammable products. But they do not protect against sparks.
d. Type D: include antistatic properties. They provide protection against static shocks as well as flammable powders (without the need for grounding) suitable for use with flammable powders, and they protect against electrostatic shocks without requiring grounding.
2. Size: One of the key considerations is the size of the FIBC bag. You’ll need to choose a size that is suitable as per your products’ dimensions (length, width and height). Choosing the correct size can help reduce product wastage, reduce the risk of injuries and in the long run, increase profits. Your FIBC bulk bag manufacturer can help you choose the right size.
3. Manufacturing Style: Lastly, there are various varieties of FIBC bulk bags that are manufactured to meet different needs. A few examples are baffle bags, builder bags, single loop bags, duffle bags, etc. While fundamentally, they have a similar manufacturing process, there are slight variations in design that allow them to be more suitable
If you carefully choose your FIBC bag manufacturer, it will benefit you in the long run as you can form a long-term relationship with them as well as take their assistance in making the right choice. A trusted partnership with the manufacturer will also ensure that your FIBC / jumbo bag needs are met timely and with quality.
