- A reusable bulk bag that vastly reduces your packaging cost per unit every time the bag is reused.
Safe Working Loads:
Safe working load is normally 5:1, which means the bag can carry up to 5 times the weight it is suppose to carry. However, if you request, we can custom a bag with a minimum safety factory of 6:1 approved by the United Nation (UN).
