Advantages with Fluid-Bag FLEXI

There are many advantages with our flexible and disposable IBC solution. Here are some of them that might interest you:

1. Low residue

Residue in a flexible 1000-liter container from Fluid-Bag can be as low as 0.5-1.0%. This is a result of stretching the bag and, when necessary, rolling of the inner container with the best discharge equipment.

This effectiveness means that you avoid unnecessary waste in your manufacturing process and can make the most of every drop of product.

2. Reduced carbon footprint

By choosing the right suppliers you can reduce your emissions within Scoop 3. Fluid-Bag's products have a low carbon footprint and can therefore help you reduce your overall climate impact.

Fluid-Bag FLEXI is the product of ours that has the lowest carbon footprint – and if you would like to know the values, please contact us and we are happy to share the third-party study.

3. Eliminate contamination

Fluid-Bag is a closed container system. Since the bag is flexible, there is no need to let air into the container, so you avoid the risk of particle, bacterial or moisture contamination.

The protective barriers in the inner container ensure the quality of your product. Get inspired by Petro-Canada and their use of Fluid-Bag flexible bulk containers for this reason.

4. No washing or re-conditioning

If you are looking for a disposable bulk tote or flexible container for bulk-packaging, Fluid-Bag FLEXI is the best option.

6. No return transportation

With a disposable bulk IBC that is also flexible, planning and handling becomes easier – no matter if you have long transportation, or you would like to deliver your product to a narrow mining shaft.
