Structure of FIBC Jumbo Bags

FIBC Jumbo Bags are composed of the following main components:

  • Bag body: The bag body is made of woven polypropylene fabric. The fabric can be woven in different styles, including plain weave, keper weave, and taffeta weave. The weight of the fabric is measured in grams per square meter (gsm). A higher gsm indicates a thicker and stronger fabric.

  • Lifting loops: Lifting loops are used to lift and move the jumbo bag. They are usually made of the same fabric as the bag body and are sewn into the top corners of the bag. The lifting loops can be reinforced with padding rings or straps to increase durability.

The discharge spout is used to empty the material from the bag using gravity. The filling spout is used for controlled filling of the material into the bag.

  • Bottom: The bag bottom can be designed in different styles, including flat and conical. The flat bottom allows for easy stacking of jumbo bags. The conical bottom facilitates easier emptying of the bag.

  • Liner: A liner can be added to the jumbo bag to protect the material from moisture, dust, and other contaminants. The liner can be made of various materials, including polyethylene, polypropylene, and nylon.

  • Valve: A valve can be added to the jumbo bag to facilitate easy loading and unloading of the material. The valve can be made of different materials, including plastic, metal, and rubber.
