Types of Bag – A, B , C-
- . Type A bulk bags-Type A FIBCs are made of plain-woven polypropylene and other non-conductive fabrics. Static electricity is generated as products move over or rub against the inside surface of the bulk bag when they are filled/emptied. There is no static protection provided by Type A FIBCs.Type A bulk bags can be used to safely transport non-flammable products. There should not be any flammable solvents or gases present around a Type A FIBC.
- . Type B bulk bags-Type B FIBCs are similar to Type A bulk bags in that they are made of plain-woven polypropylene fabrics or other non-conductive material. Also, like Type A bulk bags, Type B bags do not have any mechanism for dissipating static electricity.The difference between Type A & B FIBCs is Type B are made from materials that have a low breakdown voltage to prevent an incident where highly energetic, and dangerous propagating brush discharges occur. Although Type B bulk bags can prevent propagating brush discharges, they are not considered anti-static bulk bags because they do not dispel an electrostatic charge.
- . Type C bulk bags-Type C FIBCs, also known as conductive FIBCs or ground able FIBCs, are made from non-conductive polypropylene fabrics interwoven with conducting threads traditionally sewn in a grid pattern. These conducting threads must be electrically interconnected as well as connected to a designated ground/earth during filling and discharging. This connection to the ground/earth during filling and discharging is imperative to the safe use of Type C bulk bags.
