FIBC is a premium jumbo bag supplier based in India. The company produces FIBC bags that are extremely durable and very efficient for storing materials like flakes, granules and powders. Our FIBC bags can withstand the toughest of climatic conditions and are also safe from sudden temperature fluctuations.
Generally, people who make use of FIBC bags are concerned about control of static electricity which is when electric charges are imbalanced within certain materials. When these jumbo bags are filled to capacity or when they are rapidly discharged with fine powders, it can lead to static electricity build up. It is crucial to prevent or remove electrical charge while packing any sort of combustible or flammable materials or when combustible dust is likely to be present in an environment.
Type A FIBCs do not provide any sort of protection from static electricity and hence, they should definitely not be used for the storage and transportation of any flammable material. These types of bags are generally made from polypropylene which is woven. Type A FIBCs are also usually made from fabrics which are non-conductive in nature.
These FIBCs have a low breakdown voltage which does not generally exceed 6 kV. This is quite effective for the prevention of explosive dust-air mixtures from igniting. However, these bags cannot dissipate static electricity and hence cannot be termed as ‘antistatic’.
This is also known as Conductive Jumbo FIBC is produced from fabric which is non-conductive in nature but has conductive threads which are interwoven. Type C FIBCs are safe to use in environments which have explosive gases or dust around them.
