All you Need to Know About FBIC Bulk Bags

Let’s look at some of the most asked questions regarding FIBC bulk bags?

Do They Have Any Other Names? It might surprise you to know that these industrially used bags have quite a few different names. You probably already know bulk bags are referred to as FIBC bags but some of their other names include: jumbo bag, super sack, big bag or even just a ton bag.

Can They be Reused? One of the many advantages of using a super sack is that many of the bags can be reused which drastically reduces your industrial waste as well as helping to support various environmental efforts.

How Do You Empty FIBC Bags? Whilst this one depends on the application, the most effective way to do this is to release the contents of the bag from the spout at the bottom. After you have finished using the bag, you will want to clean the inside so they can be reused as previously mentioned.

What is the Best Way to Stack Them? The answer to this question has been the topic of much debate amongst those in the packaging community, however, it is advised that the most effective way is to stack big bags evenly against two supporting walls.

If you do not happen to have supporting walls available, you can adopt the pyramid stacking method.

Where is the Best Place to Store FIBC Bags? It may not surprise you to know that the best place to store bulk bags is somewhere dry indoors and away from any potential external hazards.  You will want to pay particular attention to keeping the bags out of direct sunlight. This is because frequent exposure to UV rays can wear down the material overtime leading to a drastic drop in performance.
