How it works

WHAT IS A SEA BULK® LINER?

A bulk container liner is a prefabricated bulk lining system installed in a 20 foot or 40 foot intermodal container and is utilized for the transport of dry flowable products. All bulk container liners and bulk bags are available in various types of materials.

HOW IS IT USED?

After inspecting the container, two people can install the bulk container liner in 15 minutes. After installation the bulk container liner is filled with air to conform to the interior dimensions of the container. The loading of the product is typically done with a material handling system (pneumatic, belt/screw conveyor or gravity) in a short period of time. Once you have reached your maximum payload the doors are secured and the loaded container is dispatched via intermodal transport (truck, rail, ship). Upon arrival at final destination, one rear door is opened, a discharge manifold if required is connected  and the material handling system is attached and the discharge of the product commences.

ADVANTAGES OF USING A SEA BULK® LINER SYSTEM

  • Eliminates all other forms of packaging including 25 kg bags, pallets or Fabric Intermediate Bulk Container (FIBC’s)
