Spout Top / Spout Bottom FIBC Bags
A controlled-fill and controlled-discharge bulk bag format for operations where material containment and measured emptying are process requirements.
FIBC Bags by Industry
FIBC Bags for Plastics and Resin
Plastics processors, resin distributors, and compounders across Canada use FIBC bags for inbound resin supply, production regrind, and outbound compound distribution. The bag configuration depends on the material format - pellets, powder, regrind, or granulate - and the fill and discharge method at each end of the supply chain. XTRX supplies FIBC bags to plastics and resin buyers across Canada with configuration options covering the range of common plastic handling requirements.
Applications
Common uses for bulk bags in this industry.
Virgin resin pellets
Inbound resin supply in FIBC format from distributor to processor - standard pellet handling with discharge spout options for silo loading
Compounded pellets
Outbound finished compound in standard bulk bag format for distribution to manufacturers or compounding customers
Regrind and production reclaim
In-house regrind, reclaim, and production scrap collected and transferred in bulk bag format within or between facilities
Masterbatch and concentrate
High-loaded colorant or functional concentrate in powder or pellet form requiring contained transfer and product identity protection
Rubber pellets and compound granulate
Rubber compound and granulate in commercial distribution requiring controlled emptying at the receiving end
Film and fiber scrap
Post-production flexible material streams requiring bulk collection and transfer in a practical, high-volume format
Why FIBC Bags
Why this industry uses bulk bags.
Plastics operations handle large volumes of pellets, powder, and regrind that move through the supply chain multiple times. FIBC bags reduce the handling cost per unit of material compared to smaller bags, support forklift and silo transfer workflows, and provide a format that can be tied, palletized, and stacked efficiently. Spout-bottom configurations allow direct discharge into processing equipment or silos. For resin and pellet materials where product contact is a concern, liner options provide a barrier between the material and the woven body.

FAQ
Questions specific to this industry and bag fit.
How does the discharge spout work for resin pellets?
The discharge spout is a fabric tube at the base of the bag that is tied closed during transport and storage. When the bag is positioned over a silo, hopper, or processing inlet, the tie is released and pellets flow through the spout by gravity. Spout diameter and length are confirmed to match your receiving equipment at specification review.
When is a liner specified for plastic resin FIBC bags?
Liners are specified for resin applications where the material requires barrier protection from the woven PP body - for example, food-contact resins, regulated materials, or applications where contamination from PP fibres is a concern. Liner type and configuration are reviewed at the project level.
Can FIBC bags be used to discharge resin pellets directly into silos?
Yes. Spout top spout bottom and duffle top discharge spout bottom configurations both support direct silo discharge. The discharge spout is positioned over the silo inlet and the tie is released to allow gravity flow. Spout sizing and bag positioning requirements are confirmed at specification review.
Are FIBC bags suitable for mixed regrind or post-production plastic scrap?
Yes. Open top flat bottom bags are commonly used for regrind collection and transfer. For mixed or variable density regrind, SWL and safety factor should be confirmed based on the heaviest expected load. Print options are available for material identification and routing.
Can XTRX support custom bag sizing and specifications?
Yes. XTRX is positioned to support project-specific requests for dimensions, loop styles, coating, liner needs, print requirements, and target load parameters. Final specifications should be confirmed through the quote process.
