There are a variety of industries that use bulk bags to store and transport materials. These industries include agriculture, chemical, construction, food, manufacturing, plastics, and many more. Bulk bags are often used to store and transport dry materials such as sand, gravel, and cement. They are also used to store and transport food products such as flour, sugar, and coffee beans. These bags are made from polypropylene plastic strands and are very strong while being safe to store food products.
Agricultural Industry
Bulk bags are often used in the agricultural industry to store and transport crops. Grain storage facilities use the bags to store wheat, corn, and other grains. These bulk bags protect crops from pests and weather damage. Additionally, they are used to transport numerous crops such as soybeans to and from distribution centers. The bags can be handled much easier in the field by farmers vs. having to load large bulk shipments. In addition, the agricultural industry uses bulk bags to transport manure, fertilizer, and other agricultural chemicals. If a farmer only needs 4,000 lbs of fertilizer, these bags can easily be used to send that to the farmer which can be unloaded with a simple tractor.
Chemical Industry
The chemical industry uses bulk bags to store and transport a variety of chemicals. These chemicals include acids, bases, solvents, and hazardous materials. Bulk bags are made from polypropylene plastic strands that are resistant to these corrosive materials. The chemical industry uses bulk bags to store and transport these materials safely across the world. The bags must have the UN certificate to be able to transport hazardous materials. This ensures the specification of the bag is adequate to safely ship the product without causing a hazmat issue.
Construction Industry
The construction industry uses bulk bags to store and transport construction materials. These materials include sand, gravel, cement, asphalt, stone, etc. The bags also are useful to store any of their waste from sites and can be used to dispose of the materials.
Food Processing Industry
The food processing industry uses bulk bags to store flour, sugar, coffee beans, and other food products. Bulk bags are made from polypropylene plastic strands that are safe to store food products. The food processing industry uses bulk bags to transport these materials safely across the world.
Manufacturing Industry
The manufacturing industry uses bulk bags to store and transport a variety of both raw materials and finished goods. Bulk bags are often used to store and transport parts and components for assembly. They are also used to store and transport finished products for shipping. The manufacturing industry uses bulk bags to store and transport a variety of products. Also, they use the bags to dispose of waste such as dust, and remnants of materials to keep them from being dispersed while shipping it for disposal. These products include parts, components, and finished goods.
Plastics Industry
The plastics industry uses bulk bags to store and transport raw materials, finished products, and waste. The plastics industry uses bulk bags to store and transport a variety of products. These products include raw materials, finished products, and waste. These raw materials include plastic pellets, powder, and flakes. The bags protect the raw materials from contamination and damage during storage and transport. The bags also keep the raw materials from dispersing and becoming airborne, which can be a health hazard. Also, the bags are used to store and transport finished products such as plastic pipes, tubing, and fittings. The bags protect the finished products from damage during storage and transport.
Pharmacuetical Industry
The pharmaceutical industry also utilizes bulk bags to move bulk products and to formulate batches within their manufacturing facilities. The bags are perfect for this application due to extreme need for only hygienic products coming in close contact with the product. In addition, these bags can be recycled after use for environmental purposes.
In conclusion, bulk bags have a variety of uses across many industries. They are used to store and transport a wide range of materials, including food, chemicals, construction materials, and manufacturing products and pharmaceutical . They allow for an intermediary transport medium allowing everyone throughout the supply chain to be able to handle products.
