Chemical manufacturers, processors, and distributors rely on BWI‑ACME for bulk packaging solutions that protect product integrity, ensure regulatory compliance, and support safe handling throughout the supply chain. Our UN‑rated FIBCs, lined bags, and engineered packaging solutions safely contain powders, granules, catalysts, resins, minerals, and industrial additives while controlling dust and contamination risks. For facilities requiring additional containment or environmental protection, we also produce custom protective covers and tarps that shield sensitive materials, equipment, totes, and pallets from moisture and weather exposure in both indoor and outdoor environments.
An FIBC is a large woven polypropylene bag used to store and transport dry bulk chemicals such as powders, granules, resins, minerals, and additives. They support efficient handling and reduce packaging waste.
UN‑rated FIBCs are designed and tested to meet hazardous material transport regulations. They undergo drop, topple, vibration, and stacking tests to ensure safe handling of regulated chemical products.
Many chemical products require PE liners to protect against moisture, oxygen, or cross‑contamination. Liners also help contain fine powders and prevent sifting.
Common sizes range from 35x35x35 in. to 40x40x60 in., depending on product density, flow characteristics, and weight requirements.
Conductive (Type C) and static‑dissipative (Type D) FIBCs are used when handling combustible powders or when operations occur in environments where static discharge poses a risk. These bags help prevent ignition hazards.
Reuse depends on the bag’s safety rating, condition, and whether the application allows for safe reuse. Many chemical applications require single‑use bags due to contamination or regulatory requirements.
We supply 4‑loop, tunnel‑loop, single‑loop, and two‑point lifting designs to support a wide range of filling and handling systems.
BWI recommends using coated bags with internal baffles or PE liners to prevent dusting, sifting, and moisture ingress. Sift proof cording systems are also used to control dust.
