Flexible Intermediate Bulk Containers (FIBCs)
PEI Bag Co. Ltd. stocks standard sizes of potato bulk bags, also known as Flexible Intermediate Bulk Containers (FIBC). These bags are made from woven polypropylene fabric and are designed to maximize storage during transportation.
We specialize in potato and onion, however, we can source and supply for other areas and industries. Other features include: ventilation panels for airflow, discharge spout at the bottom, open top for easy filling and airflow, duffle top for protection during transport, and standard 4-loop design for forklift handling. The typical size for a FIBC is 36” X 42” X 62” – 2500 lbs, but we also special order FIBCs to fit customer specifications such as custom sizes, colours, and fabric for use in all dry goods applications, with capacity up to 3500 lbs.
PEI Bag Co. offers a number of filling options. The type that best suits you will be determined by the requirements of your machinery and the type of product to be stored. If damage to product isn’t a concern, a top may not be necessary. If it is, a duffel top with draw string will give you air flow, while a cone top provides easy filling. To customize your option according to need, spouts and other filling systems can be attached. Types of filling options include:
- Open Top
- Open Top with Tightening Holes
