FIBCs & IBCs


Total protection In-liners eliminate product deterioration during transport


More and more companies are realising the benefits to be gained from shipping and storing bulk products within FIBCs fitted with Barrier Foil liners.


Manufactured by Protective Packaging based in Sale, Cheshire, liners are designed to provide total protection for dried products that have sensitivity to moisture, oxygen and other climatic and biological volatiles, and can also prevent odour transfer either into or out of the product. All liners are tailor-made to suit the dimensions and style of the FIBC. They can be made open topped with flat base or with filling and/or discharge spouts, thus ensuring safe filling and emptying of the FIBC. These liners can also be fitted with valves that facilitate gas flushing of the liner so that residual oxygen can be displaced, vacuuming of the liner and taking samples of the residual air in the liners for analysis, all without the need to open up the hermetically sealed liner.


Barrier foils are a flexible barrier with the lowest known water vapour and oxygen transmission rates. Polythene liners let water vapour and aggressive gasses seep through allowing


deterioration of product to occur, but this can be eliminated by the use of a Barrier Foil Liner.
