Understanding Baffle FIBCs and When to Use Them

When it comes to bulk material handling, efficiency isn’t just about how much you can move—it’s about how well you can store, stack, and transport it. That’s where baffle FIBCs (Flexible Intermediate Bulk Containers) come in.

Unlike traditional bulk bags that tend to bulge when filled, baffle FIBCs are designed to maintain a square shape. This seemingly small design difference can have a major impact on storage capacity, transport efficiency, and overall operational costs.

How to Choose Between 1-Loop and 4-Loop FIBCs for Your Operation

Not all bulk bags are built the same—and that’s a good thing. When selecting the right FIBC (Flexible Intermediate Bulk Container) for your operation, one of the first decisions you’ll need to make is whether to go with a 1-loop or 4-loop design.

Each type has its own unique strengths depending on the material being handled, the environment, and how the bag will be moved or stored. In this blog, we’ll break down the differences between 1-loop and 4-loop FIBCs, including use cases, advantages, and how to make the best choice for your business.

How to Prevent Static Buildup When Using FIBCs

When working with bulk materials—especially powders, resins, and other fine particulates—one often overlooked hazard is static electricity. In industries like chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and food production, a sudden static discharge can ignite flammable dust or vapors, putting workers and facilities at serious risk.

That’s where static-safe FIBCs (Flexible Intermediate Bulk Containers) come into play.

In this blog, we’ll walk you through how static buildup occurs, the different types of FIBCs that prevent it, and how to choose the right antistatic bulk bag for your operation—especially if your business is based in the U.S. and adheres to OSHA and NFPA guidelines.
