Bulk
Container Liner Types |
 End
Fill Bulk Container Liners
| Description |
A
totally enclosed liner which can fit any standard container
modified with a temporary bulkhead |
| Cargo |
Free-flowing
bulk powders, pellets, granules and grain |
| Installation |
The
bulk liner is suspended in place by attaching the fixing points
to hooks in the roof of the container. The filling sleeves and
discharge sleeves correspond with the respective top and bottom
holes in the temporary bulkhead. Similar liner retention systems
to the top fill bulk liner are employed–namely self adhesive
strips along the bottom of the liner or restraining flaps at
the end of the liner. |
| Handling |
The
container is usually loaded by pumping or throwing cargo through
the filling sleeve. This liner may be inflated before filling.
To discharge the cargo, the container is tipped, allowing cargo
to flow out of the discharge sleeve into a silo or hopper. Rotary
flow pumps are often used to pump the cargo into above-ground
silos. |

Open Top
Bulk Container Liners
| Description |
The
open top bulk liner was developed specifically for cargos carried
in open top containers. Grain is common cargo although plastic
or chemical powders, cement, milk powder, sugar and salt are
also carried. Open top bulk liners can also be used in top fill
bulk containers, thus providing a very economical alternative. |
| Cargo |
Any
granular or free-flowing material |
| Installation |
The
bulk liner is suspended in place by attaching to the hanging
points and to the four corners. Self adhesive tape on the bottom
of the liner can be added to help secure the liner in place.
They are normally covered by tilt sheet. |
| Handling |
Cargo
loading is achieved very simply by using front end loaders,
conveyors, silos, gravity-fed hoppers or rotary flow pumps.
The cargo is normally discharged by tipping into a silo or hopper.
Open top bulk liners can be fitted to either open top containers
or bulk containers. |

 Top
Fill Bulk Container Liners
| Description |
A
totally enclosed liner made to fit bulk containers specially
equipped with filling hatches on the roof of the container |
|
Cargo |
Free-flowing
bulk powders, pellets, granules and grain |
| Installation |
The
bulk liner is suspended in place by attaching the fixing
point to hooks in the roof of the container. Filling sleeves
correspond to the filling hatches. Strips of self adhesive
tapes or restraining flaps are located on the bottom of
the liner to ensure that the liner is fixed to the floor
and retained during discharge, especially when tipping.
Depending on the type of bulk container used, the discharge
sleeve is either full width or circular. |
|
Handling |
Gravity-fed
hoppers are normally used for cargo loading although conveyors
or pumps may also be employed. The liner may be inflated
with air before filling. The container is usually tipped
to discharge the cargo into a silo or hopper. |

 Wide
Access Bulk Container Liners
| Description |
This
is basically a huge bag which is suspended inside a container
and sealed after the cargo has been loaded. A very simple
and totally enclosed versatile liner used to protect ANY
containerized cargo. Often equipment or materials have
to be protected from salt air, dust, grime and other pollution
which collect during transit. The wide opening allows
for unrestricted access to the container during the loading. |
| Cargo |
Any
equipment, materials or palletized goods. |
| Installation |
The
bulk liner is suspended in place by attaching the hanging
points to hooks in the roof of the container. Where no
hooks are fitted in the container, conventional “S” hooks
may be used. No further attachments are necessary. |
| Handling |
The
container is loaded in the normal manner using fork lifts
or pallet trucks. A reusable heavy duty carpet may be
used to protect the bulk liner from punctures when loading
and is removed in stages during the operation. As soon
as the loading is complete, the oversize open end of the
liner is gathered and tied together thus completely sealing
the contents. If required, ventilation holes may be punched
in the liner to allow air circulation. Where an air-tight
chamber is required, packets of moisture absorbent chemicals
can be supplied to remove airborne moisture and thus minimize
the risk of condensation forming as the container is subject
to temperature fluctuation during transit through different
climates. |
