At FIBC Bag Factory, we specialize in manufacturing Type C Conductive FIBC Bags (also known as Anti-Static or Conductive Bulk Bags), a critical safety component for industries handling powders or granules that are flammable or susceptible to static discharge. Our bags are meticulously constructed to provide a controlled path for static electricity to ground, significantly reducing the risk of sparks and potential explosions.
2. Key Features & Benefits
🔹 Inherent Safety by Design
Static Dissipation: Integrated conductive threads (usually made of carbon or steel) woven into the fabric create a continuous grounding path.
Explosion Prevention: Safely handles sensitive materials like chemicals, pharmaceuticals, food additives (flour, sugar), metals, and plastics.
Industry Compliance: Designed to meet international standards for handling combustible dusts and flammable substances.
🔹 Superior Construction & Durability
Robust Fabric: Available from 140 to 220 GSM, with options for coated (UV, moisture protection) or uncoated fabric.
Reinforced Seams: Choices of Plain, Chain, or Chain Lock Stitching with optional sift-proofing for fine powders.
Secure Lifting: Configured with 2, 3, or 4 lifting loops in styles like Cross-Corner, Full Loop, or Loop-in-Loop for optimal load distribution.
🔹 Ultimate Customization
Size & Shape: Standard sizes (e.g., 90x90x110 cm) or fully custom dimensions. Styles include U-Panel, Tubular, Circular, and Rectangular.
Discharge Options: Flat Bottom or various Discharge Spout designs for complete emptying.
Inner Liner: Optional HDPE/LDPE Liners for extra moisture or contamination barrier.
Surface Treatment: UV-treated for outdoor storage. Choose between Coated or Plain fabric with custom logo printing.

6. FAQ
Q1: What is the difference between Type C and Type D FIBC bags?
A: Type C Bags (Conductive) require a direct, physical connection to a verified ground during use to safely dissipate static charges. Type D Bags (Dissipative) rely on a special static-dissipative fabric and do not require grounding, but have specific use conditions. We can advise on the correct choice for your application.
Q2: How do I properly ground a Type C Conductive FIBC Bag?
A: Our bags are equipped with identifiable conductive lifting loops or tabs. These must be connected to a certified ground point using suitable clamps and cables before any filling or discharging operation. We provide handling guidelines with each order.
Q3: Can you make bags with specific certifications?
A: Yes. We can produce bags to meet your required specifications and can collaborate on obtaining necessary test reports from accredited laboratories.
Q4: What is the lead time for custom orders?
A: Typical lead time is 15-30 days after confirmation of all design details, depending on order quantity and complexity.

Matt –
The duffle top and flat bottom design make filling and emptying the bags efficient and mess-free. I also appreciate the heavy-duty construction—the material is thick and tear-resistant, and the reinforced stitching gives me confidence that the bags won’t rip under heavy loads.
Davis –
The FIBC bulk bags are made with thick and sturdy material that feels very strong and reliable. The stitching is tight and reinforced at the seams, which adds to their durability and prevents tearing under heavy weight.
