Polypropylene based FIBC bulk bags are one of the most preferred packaging options for storage and transportation. Their versatility, affordability, lightweight, and other ground-breaking features make them the go-to packaging material. FIBC bulk bags come in various shapes and sizes, as different types of bags are suited for different purposes. Hence, you need to keep a few things in mind before you choose the perfect bag for your usage.
Following are a few questions you should ask when buying polypropylene FIBC bulk bags:
1.Load Carrying Capacity
The primary motive of buying a bulk bag is to store and/or transport goods, which may vary weight. Therefore, the load carrying capacity of the FIBC bulk bag is of utmost importance. Each type of bags can carry different amounts of weights. Overloading these bags can result in severe losses, and underloading can cause wastage of money. For instance, Emmbi offers standard FIBC bulk bags that can carry weight up to 2205 lbs, which is more than enough for most uses.
2.Recyclability and Reusability
Going eco-friendly is the need of the hour, especially for essential business verticals. Therefore, even while choosing the FIBC bulk bags, it is necessary to enquire about the recyclability of the bulk bags. Emmbi offers standard super sacks made of single polymer polypropylene which makes them more recyclable than multi-polymer bags. Moreover, considering your usage, it is also important to know whether you want a multi-trip SF 6:1 Bag.
3.Type A, Type B, Type C – Which Ones for You?
Bulk bags are of various types. This includes the standard ones (Type A), ones with anti-static functionality that prevent sparks (Type B), and the ones with graphite thread conductor technology that helps ground static charge (Type C). You need to choose the bags as per your requirements. For instance, if you want to store or transport construction material like bricks, sand, soil, or food grains, that the standard bag or Type A is enough for you. However, for flammable powdered chemicals, coal, or dry flammable products, Type B and Type C would be the ones to choose.
4.Custom Printing Options
Marketing is the most important aspect of business, and bulk bags can be a great marketing tool. Manufacturers like Emmbi provide custom printing options which help you in brand creation and spreading brand awareness. Custom printing also makes the super sacks look appealing enough to grab attention. Moreover, attractive looking sacks add up to the perception of quality among the target audience. Additionally, effectively custom printed super sacks are affordable marketing tools, which also makes them a win-win option.
5.Size of Bulk Bags
Bulk bags come in various sizes which makes them suitable for the carriage and transport of all kinds of goods. Especially, their durability and versatility make them apt in handling heavy products. While buying the bags you need to take the size of your product, its bulk density and volume into consideration. For instance, a one tonne polypropylene FIBC bulk bag offered by Emmbi is excellent in handling heavy duty industrial products, offering supreme durability and protection. Likewise, there are woven super sacks of varied sizes to suit your needs.
