  Flexible Intermediate Bulk Container or FIBC bags are one of the most popular means of storing and transporting a diverse variety of products in bulk quantities. Also known as bulk bags and super sacks, these flexible containers are very lightweight, and therefore, help reduce shipping costs to a great extent. Standard FIBC bags  may not always be suitable for specific types of products or industries though. In such cases, it’s necessary to get your bulk bags custom-made to make them perfect for the specific product. Here are some of the ways you can customize your FIBC bags to meet your requirements of safety and functionality. Type FIBC bags  are designed using different types of materials. Usually, they are divided into types A, B, C, and D, each of which offers varying degrees of static protection.

  Repurposing end-of-life automotive tyres to extract the rubber for industrial usage is an industry in itself. This extracted rubber, popularly known as crumb rubber or rubber mulch, finds wide application in agriculture, landscaping, flooring, infrastructure, and sports.  Grounding the tyres results in a low density, porous material that allows easy airflow. Rubber is a naturally combustible material. With increased air permeability and wider surface area as fine particles, it is more prone to spontaneous combustion compared to tyre units. Hence, there is an increased need to handle crumb rubber with extreme caution. FIBC bulk bags  are an appropriate solution to storing and transporting crumb rubber safely and efficiently. The lightweight yet sturdy fabric woven of polypropylene threads is a flexible and versatile packaging option for bulk materials across industries. Here are some of the benefits that the crumb rubber industry draws from using FIBC bulk bags. ...

  \ Flexible Intermediate Bulk Containers or FIBCs are the most favoured commercial packaging solution. Commonly known as jumbo, big or  bulk bags , these are the ultimate answer to all packaging requirements of products spanning across food, agriculture, chemicals, construction, mining industries, etc.   Are you new to the world of bulk packaging? Then read along to know the top five facts of  FIBC bulk bags  to help you decide your need for such packaging solutions.  Top 5 Facts of Standard FIBC Bulk Bags : 1. Construction FIBC Bulk Bags  are made using woven fabric produced from 100% virgin polypropylene. The base material renders these bags incredibly lightweight.

  The best feature of  FIBC bulk bags  is that they are customisable. Often companies prefer to buy in-stock bulk bags from manufacturers to meet limited volume or short-term packaging requirements. However, it makes more sense to have them tailor-made by your bulk bag suppliers to fit your products perfectly.  Let us take a brief look at all the things you should know before ordering custom bulk bags. When do you need to customise your bulk bags? The customisation aspects of bulk bags depend on the products. For agricultural grains, you would ideally need bulk bags with additional baffles to help the bags retain their shape after filling. To handle dry, flammable products safely, you will need anti-static bulk bags. So, the product that you intend to handle in the bulk bags decides whether you need them to be customised or not.  In what ways can you customise the bulk bags? You can have your FIBCs customised in more ways than one. For food-grade materials,...

  FIBCs are the most popular industrial packaging solution offering you multiple benefits rolled into one single package. Constructed of interwoven polypropylene fibre, FIBC Bulk Bags are not only lightweight and strong but are naturally ventilated. For specific product categories, you must use only breathable Bulk Bags to keep them from getting spoiled.

Strands of polypropylene (PP) are woven together to form a mesh-like fabric that is used to construct FIBC Bulk Bags. This mesh-like construction allows air to flow freely within the bag, creating an apt environment for products like fresh agricultural produce to retain their freshness. All Bulk Bags are breathable to some extent owing to the PP fabric they are made of, except for b...
