Why Used Bulk Bags Fit This Market

With port-driven activity, speed and flexibility are critical. Used bulk bags provide the fast-turn solutions logistics operators need while reducing packaging spend by up to 40%. From staging imports directly off-dock to moving scrap materials into transfer containers, used FIBCs keep supply chains fluid while supporting sustainability goals.
For example, a recycling processor at the Pier T terminal stages recovered glass in discharge-spout used bags, cutting truck loading times significantly.
