Several manufacturing units require storage containers for safely and securely storing items. There are traditional packaging solutions which are still required but more modern techniques call for being used as well. FIBC or Flexible Intermediate Bulk Containers are proving to be the most cost-effective industrial packaging solutions these days.

If you’re wondering about the future use of FIBC bags then here are some stats to point you in that direction. Due to the pandemic, the global FIBC market size is predicted to be a readjusted size of USD 12330 million by 2028 with a CAGR of 5.0% during the forecast period 2023-2028. This means that the global FIBC market is likely to grow at a substantial rate during this forecast period. At present, the market is growing at a steady rate.

Why use FIBC bags for your manufacturing needs?

There are several options available in the market. However, not all solutions are meant for different purposes. That said, FIBC bags are proving to be an inevitable solution for many industrial uses.

• Multipurpose: FIBC bulk bags are versatile by nature. This means they can be used to package many types of products. This includes food and beverages, chemicals and construction materials. FIBC bags were essentially designed to minimise costs and use less space, making them economical and practical during application.
• Strong and durable: They are ideal for transporting fragile or heavy items from foods like grains, or chemical products like resins and fertilizers. They are made from high-quality materials that can tolerate rough handling. This is why the agriculture industry has great use of FIBC bags. Other industries included are construction, chemicals and petroleum, food processing and the mining industry.
• Cost-effective: They are affordable compared to the usage and cost of corrugated boxes or plastic containers.
• Eco-friendly: Bulk bags are reusable. They can also be recycled, making them a sustainable packaging option.
• Compact space: These bulk bags are flexible, which means they will naturally take up less space, making them easier to store and transport. Other types of packaging do not offer this characteristic, which means that they require large amounts of space even when they are not in use.

If FIBC bags are so useful then a manufacturing unit can certainly make use of FIBC bag finishing machinery. 

Why industrial unit requires Armstrong Finishing Machinery

There are various reasons why you need to opt for Armstrong Finishing Machinery.

Reason 1 – Armstrong is a complete solution provider, offering you all types of machinery that can aid in the making and finishing of an FIBC bag. Their machines range from fabric-cutting machines to liner sealing, belt cutting, bale presses, test rigs, and so on.

Reason 2 – Armstrong is an ISO 9001:2015 certified company with expertise in manufacturing, developing, and after-sales to automate work processes. We work towards improving product quality and reducing costs.

Reason 3 – We know the markets inside and out as we have our own R&D centre to design and develop new products and machines. This means that all machines are constructed using the latest insights and reliable technology to sustain your FIBC-producing requirements.

Reason 4 – We use advanced technology to deliver the best quality for the machines that you choose from your manufacturing unit to make FIBC bags. Also, the machinery is made in-house which makes it even easier to understand any loophole or technical glitches that can be fixed before it reaches the markets to sell.

Reason 5 – Armstrong continues to work on new and upcoming projects to ensure that their machines are always on par with global standards. At the moment, we have made a flexographic printing machine called Printek. It is designed to accurately print in PP bags and FIBC bags. We are also developing unique solutions to enable faster production solutions. We have also developed a kind of metal detector machine that will detect metal during the testing stage. Our HemTek machine is another great addition and feather in our hat. It does automatic mouth hemming for small PP bags. We received an overwhelming response in our live demo this year in Plastindia 2023. 

Reason 6 – We have close to 10 ready-to-offer FIBC finishing machines on the shelves. All machines are properly tested for sustaining operations for a long period.

At Armstrong, we believe in providing only quality that is a cut above the rest. This is why we have a team of 70+ talented engineers and experts onboard. We use industrial expertise to ensure customer satisfaction, successfully delivering our products and services to over 66 countries worldwide.
