Introduction to Safe Storage

Proper storage of bulk bags is crucial for maintaining product integrity and ensuring safety in your warehouse operations. Following these guidelines will help prevent damage, contamination, and extend the life of your FIBCs.

Environmental Considerations

Store bulk bags in a clean, dry environment away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. UV exposure can degrade polypropylene over time, reducing the bag's strength and reliability.

Stacking Guidelines

  • Maximum stack height should not exceed manufacturer recommendations
  • Use proper stacking techniques to distribute weight evenly
  • Consider using baffle bags for better stacking stability
  • Ensure adequate ventilation between stacks

Handling Best Practices

Always use proper lifting equipment and techniques when moving stored bulk bags. Inspect bags regularly for signs of damage or wear before use.
