Description
1. What are bulk bags?
Bulk bags, as known as super sacks or FIBC (Flexible Intermediate Bulk Containers), are huge woven bags for large amounts of materials. They typically have a weight capacity of 2,000 pounds.
FIBCs (flexible intermediate bulk containers) have flexible walls and are typically used to carry dry solid materials, such as sand, compost, and gravel.
They are very versatile, able to contain both dry and wet materials, e.g. grain, seed, rice, flour, sugar, foodstuffs, fertilizers, and beans.
2. Save money buying lightly used
These lightly used bulk bags are still in great condition, having only been used once previously in the food industry.
The bags are priced at a 25%+ discount compared with completely new bags.
The benefits of used bulk bags include:
- Recycling, by reducing plastic waste in landfills
- Emitting fewer greenhouse gases, by reducing the need to produce new bulk bags, and
- Saving money: used bulk bags are 25-50% cheaper than new bags
It's a no-brainer. Buy Used! Save the planet and your wallet.
3. Advantages of bulk bags
A) Lower cost
One 2,000-pound bulk bag can be used in lieu of forty 50-pound sandbags. Filling and emptying one bulk bag is also far easier, faster, and more efficient than filling and emptying forty sandbags.
B) Safer
Instead of needing to move around materials by hand, bulk bags enable forklifts to be used for moving. This reduces potential injuries for workers.
C) Reduced packaging weight
By using fewer but larger bags to carry material, you can reduce the quantity and weight of the bags needed to carry the material. If properly packed and stacked, bulk bags can be stacked much higher than smaller bags can be, allowing you to fully utilize the storage capacity of a warehouse.
