To avoid accidents caused by any type of electrostatic discharges which may occur during filling or the discharging of the FIBCs, Conductive FIBCs should be used.

ALL OUR FIBC MODELS CAN BE MANUFACTURED AS CONDUCTIVE FIBCs ON REQUEST.

Facts about conductive FIBCs

These FIBCs (also known as "Type C Bags") have interwoven conductive threads which are all reliably interconnected and MUST BE GROUNDED. Dangerous static charge is safely dissipated to ground. Type C bags do not cause any discharges. But the most important condition is a reliable connection to ground during filling and emptying operations. To perevent grounding errors, Type C bags are additionally equipped with conductive loops in order to achieve contact to the hoist system, providing it has a path to ground.

If this FIBC remains ungrounded and grounded objects are approaching, spark discharges will occur which can ignite gases, vapours and dusts.
