General information on big bags

Big bags are one of our company’s product categories of bags. These are large bags like the ones shown in the photo and they can hold products of 500 kg up to 2,000 kg. This type of bag is known as Big Bag, Jumbo Bag or FIBC. Big bags are made of polypropylene.

Use & safety

Big bags are mainly used for storing and transporting construction materials, wood, charcoal, agricultural products as well as food products. Big bags have a safety factor (SF) of 5:1 and their minimum safe working load (SWL) is 1,000 kg. We can manufacture big bags of any combination of dimension, capacity and type, upon request.

Types of big bags

Big bags are manufactured in many different types and dimensions, depending on the client’s needs. The type of a big bag is determined mainly by its top and bottom design, but also by how many lifting points it has.

All big bags can be laminated (i.e., water resistant) or they can have an inner lining made of polyethylene, upon request.

Except from the standard big bags, ventilated big bags are also available, called Ventilated or Air Bags, which have vertical ventilated strips of fabric, in order for their interior and their content to be ventilated. Air Bagsare mainly used for storing and carrying potatoes, wood and other products which need to be ventilated.
