The dairy industry plays an important role in South Africa’s economy, with an increasing demand for high-quality dairy products that are safe for consumption. It is important for dairy farmers to choose the correct packaging solutions to fulfil their unique bulk packaging requirements.
Bulk bags, also known as flexible intermediate bulk containers (FIBCs), are a reliable and effective packaging solution for the dairy industry. This sector has various packaging issues, including the need to maintain freshness, minimise contamination and guarantee efficient transportation.
Product deterioration, financial losses and a negative impact on brand perception can all arise from inadequate packaging. As a result, dependable and specialised packaging solutions adapted to the dairy industry’s specific needs are vital.
Custom Bulk Bags is a major manufacturer and supplier of bulk bags in South Africa. We produce up to 3.5 million bulk bags per year. Our products can safely hold between 500kg and two tonnes of material per bag, depending on your specifications. We also offer numerous optional extras, including UV coatings that will extend the shelf life of your bulk bags.
Benefits of bulk bags for dairy farmers
While these products are not suitable for storing milk and other liquid products, they can be used to store and transport animal feed, hay, powdered products and other ingredients needed to manufacture dairy products.
Bulk bags are large flexible containers made from woven tapes of polypropylene. They are available in a variety of sizes and patterns, making them a versatile and cost-effective packaging option. Bulk bags are highly customisable, durable and versatile, making them a smart choice for farmers and dairy product manufacturers.
They provide exceptional product protection through moisture resistance, UV protection and barriers against contaminants. Their stackability, space efficiency and compatibility with a variety of filling and discharging methods all contribute to their applications for the dairy sector.
What’s more, these bulk packaging products are sustainable. They’re made from polypropylene which is a highly recyclable polymer, meaning that when a FIBCs shelf-life is reached, it can be recycled and turned into new plastic products. Dairy businesses can reuse bulk bags a few times before having to replace them.
