What Is A Bulk Bag Unloader?

A bulk bag unloader is also referred to as a bulk bag discharger, bulk bag emptiers & unloaders. Many different companies rely on bulk bag unloaders to handle all types of materials due to their speed, safety & cost effectiveness. Where small 50 pound bags were used almost exclusively, bulk bags (also called big bags) are a viable and effective alternative for containment and distribution.

Bulk Bag Unloader (Bulk Bag Discharger)

The worldwide acceptance of bulk bags has brought big changes to bulk material handling - not least in the pharmaceutical industry where they are replacing the use of rigid IBC's. Manufacturers of bulk bags, and associated filling and unloading systems have made strident advances in hygiene and containment – now offering containment levels as good as 25µg/m3. Lined bulk bags avoid cross contamination between batches and eliminate the need for and cost of cleaning/re-validation associated with traditional rigid bins.
