Big Bag sacks for construction

In the construction industry, stacking stability, mechanical strength, and ease of unloading are what matter – the bag must withstand the weight of the material and the conditions of the construction site.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a four-loop and a single-loop bag when used for aggregates?

A four-loop bag has four lifting loops positioned at the corners – providing more stable lifting and better balance for heavy bulk materials like aggregate or rubble. They can be safely stacked. A single-loop bag has one central loop – simpler, cheaper, used for lighter materials or when stacking is not required.

Will the Big Pak bags withstand stacking on a construction site?

Yes. Big Bag 4-loop bags are manufactured from PP fabric of appropriate GSM (grams per square metre) and safety factor (5:1 or 6:1). At a SWL of 1,000 kg, the bag withstands a test load of 5,000–6,000 kg. Stacking is possible when properly stored on a level surface.
