UN Approved FIBC Bags and Their Benefits:

Mittal Technopack Pvt. Ltd. takes safety seriously, especially when it comes to transporting and storing hazardous materials. That’s why we offer a wide range of UN Approved FIBC bags, ensuring maximum protection and compliance with global regulations.

Understanding UN Regulations:

The United Nations (UN) has established strict guidelines for packaging hazardous materials, outlined in the Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods (UN Model Regulations), commonly known as the Orange Book. These regulations aim to minimize risks during transportation and storage, protecting people and the environment.

UN Approved FIBC Bags:

FIBC stands for Flexible Intermediate Bulk Containers, more commonly known as bulk bags. UN Approved FIBC bags are specifically designed and tested to meet the rigorous standards set by the UN for transporting hazardous materials. These bags undergo a battery of tests, including:

Tests for UN Approved FIBC Bags

  • Drop test: Ensuring the bag can withstand impact without damage or leakage.
  • Righting test: Ensuring the bag can withstand rapid movement from lying on its side to an upright position using two lifting belts without any damage to the bag and the lifting belts.
  • Stacking test: Verifying the bag’s ability to handle weight without collapsing.
  • Tear test: Evaluating the bag’s resistance to punctures and tears.
  • Top Lift test: Verifying and testing the bag’s ability to carry its total capacity and also the 6:1 Safety Factor.
  • Topple test: Ensuring the bag can withstand a drop on a rigid horizontal surface without any damages
  • Leakproof testing: Verifying the bag’s ability to retain its contents securely.

The bags are tested rigorously and then certified by a registered laboratory, who are responsible for improving the standards of packaging needed for the promotion of exports and create infrastructural facilities for overall packaging improvement in India.

Benefits of UN Approved FIBC Bags:

  • Enhanced safety: Rigorous testing guarantees the bag’s integrity and minimizes the risk of leaks, spills, and contamination.
  • Compliance: Using UN Approved FIBC bags ensures you adhere to regulations, avoiding potential fines and legal issues.
  • Peace of mind: Knowing your hazardous materials are securely transported and stored provides invaluable peace of mind.
  • Reputation boost: Demonstrating your commitment to safety regulations strengthens your reputation as a responsible business.
