Reusable Bulk Bags to Shape Europe Bulk Container Industry
Bulk bags used in transportation of bulk material. These bags allow flexible packaging and can be reused in a closed loop scheme. A closed loop scheme is a practise in which bulk bags are washed and prepared to be reused for application for which they were initially designed. In a closed loop scheme, bulk bag manufacturers, customers, and end operators collaborate to reuse bulk bags. To carefully reuse them, inside dirt needs to be eradicated.
Most common designs of bulk bags have a long shelf life of almost five years. Some bulk bags such as those that comprise special chemical coats, may in reality have comparatively shorter shelf life due to the gradual chemical breakdown of the coating. There is growing acceptance of reusable bulk bags, as they offer efficient and economical solution. Meanwhile bulk bags are lightweight and offer easily compressible storage options much like or even superior to cardboard boxes and other flat paper products. The high strength and sturdy design make bulk bags a better option than conveying thousands of tones in crushed cardboard boxes.
Rise in Raw Material Prices Likely to Hamper Market Growth
Flexible Intermediate Bulk Containers (FIBCs) or bulk bags are generally made from raw materials such as polyethylene and polypropylene. It is expected that petroleum-based raw materials account for roughly 60-70% of the total production cost of bulk bags. Fluctuation in raw materials prices is a major restraint in maintaining economical prices of bulk bags for export point of view. The result of increasing crude oil rates is also likely to be reflected, further overstressing the pricing load on operating companies.
