Bulk bag for Waste and Recycled Products

How to choose your Bulk Bag?

Our Interactive Search Filter

On the left of this page (PC version), you will find the characteristic options for sorting and selecting Bulk Bags in the form of criteria. According to these criteria, we will automatically suggest the bag(s) that best meet your needs.

These criteria are numerous and will allow you to reduce or increase your selection by positioning several values of the same criteria.

To simplify your search, our filter is directly interactive. Each time you select a criteria, it will sort and quickly present you with the appropriate bulk bags.

For more details on a Bulk Bag, simply click on the photo or "details" and you will be taken directly to the product page where we have added all the relevant specifications for your choice as well as a free download of the more detailed technical specifications under the "Technical Data" tab. With the free download (no need to register) you can also view the specifications at your leisure.

What we advise you to know before your search

- the estimated weight of your products or waste (overestimate a little to be safe),

- the volume this represents.

A bulk bag can easily contain several hundred kilos, we advise you to check your handling and lifting equipment before packing.

All our bulk bag images include:

- dimensions by arrow and mention of Width x Depth x Height,

- The logo-pictograms of m3, weight resistance and volume equivalence litres.

If the Recycling Bulk Bags are composed of a closing skirt, a filling chute (spout) or emptying chutes (spout) , a second drawing integrates the measurements of these elements.

Bulk Bag dimensions for the recycling industry

Width & Depth (length)

All our FIBCs (Flexible Intermediate Bulk Containers, Bulk Bags) are ordered according to width and depth (e.g. 90 x 90 cm) to make your choice easier and simpler.

Height

As specialists in Bulk Bags and in particular those suitable for the bag recycling sector, we offer you the possibility to separate the height for dimensional criteria.

In our experience, the choice of height is as important as, or more important than, the basic dimensions for some due to their filling equipment. You also have the possibility to search only by this single criteria. This gives you a direct selection according to the selected height range with all basic dimensions and their strengths and capacities.

What does Volume mean?

It is used to measure the theoretical capacity of your waste and recycling Bulk Bag. Normal manufacturing tolerances may increase or decrease the fill volume by a few percent. If you fill your Bulk Bag with a homogeneous material such as sand, the volume (combined with the strength) will be the right measure for you. For packaging material of various shapes and sizes (e.g. large plastic shreds or scrap metal) this will increase the vacuum and mechanically reduce the filling volume.  If you know the density then it will be even easier for you to select the right bulk bag.

Definition of safety resistance

The SWL is the safety load. It indicates the weight limit above which the Bulk Bag is no longer certified. Beyond this, the bag is no longer suitable for you.

A safety factor is applied during strength testing and certification but we strongly advise against filling your bag above the limit mentioned on each page of our products and on the mandatory safety labels sewn inside the Bulk Bags.

What is Grammage ?

This is the thickness of the fabric, expressed in grams/m².

A high grammage indicates a high thickness of canvas. The thickness increases the resistance to the weight of the load. It also allows the Bulk Bag to be certified in class SF 6:1 (reusable). In contrast, the more traditional thicknesses are SF 5:1 (non-reusable). With a greater thickness, the resistance to impact, sharp, shearing, and heavy products will also be higher.

The different lifting points and types of loops

The recycling sector represents so many different activities that we offer you all types of Bulk Bags and PP bags, in sizes, resistance and fabric quality (filtering, hermetic or leakproof).

Do you have a specific need?

We totally design your Bulk Bag. We provide you with a prototype before manufacturing to validate all the technical characteristics together and in real conditions.

If necessary, we adapt the specifications to the real use to be as close as possible to your constraints.

Your custom-made bulk bags

We customise your bulk bags (with a minimum quantity) by adding your logo or visual identity on 1, 2 or 4 printed sides.

In the same way, we can personalise the security label, sewn inside each bag, customising its content with your company name, contact details and website address. If you need specific information or security pictograms, we can add them and send you the proof beforehand for validation.

Let's take customisation a step further!

We are able to fully customise your Bulk Bag using sewing threads in your colours; transforming the straps into a specific colour or reducing or extending the size.

What about the environment?

Our bags and Bulk Bags are 100% recyclable in the appropriate networks dedicated to laminated or non-laminated PP plastic. 

Conditions of use

Storage conditions

Empty Bulk Bags can be stored outside, even for a prolonged period, provided that they are protected and that the weather (rain, hail, sun) cannot come into direct contact.

However, we advise you to store them indoors and away from direct sunlight to avoid damage caused by excessive exposure to UV rays.

Safety labels sewn into the inside of our bags outline and remind us of the uses and best practices.

Handling conditions

The handling and filling conditions depend entirely on the model.

For example, if your bulk bag has 4 standard or cross-corner straps you can handle it by inserting the forks of a forklift into its 4 lifting points.

Alternatively, once loaded, it can be placed on a suitably sized handling pallet for storage and shipping. As an example of frequent use, the filled bulk bag container, placed on a pallet, can be put directly into a rack. Or the arrangement on a wooden pallet with 3 or 5 bottom boards allows you to stack safely.

We can also advise you and study for you the pallets best adapted to your needs according to your logistics and storage constraints.

Precautions for use

When handling by hand, we strongly advise you to wear suitable safety gloves.

Keep out of reach of children.

These waste bags can be used for packaging and packing of products and waste. In addition, our experts are available to advise you and offer you the best selection by email or telephone.

Quality of our bulk bags for waste and recycling storage

They are manufactured according to strict quality criteria using controlled, high quality raw materials to ensure adequate resistance in use.

Sample tests are carried out to ensure long-lasting use and use according to specifications. Lifting points and seams are also checked by loading and tensioning.
