Our country's plastic-woven container bags are mainly exported to Japan and South Korea, and are vigorously developing markets in the Middle East, Africa, the United States and Europe. Due to the production of oil and cement, there is a great demand for container bags in the Middle East; in Africa, almost all of its state-owned oil companies focus on the development of plastic woven products, and the demand for container bags is also large. Africa can accept the quality and grade of China's bulk bags, so there is no big problem in opening up the market in Africa. The United States and Europe have high quality requirements for Fib Cs, and China's Fib Cs cannot meet their requirements.
The quality of the container bag is good or bad, it is very important. Therefore, the international market has its own strict standards for FIBC products. Standards vary in their focus. Japan pays attention to details, Australia pays attention to form, and the European Community standard pays attention to product performance technical indicators, which are concise and to the point. The United States and Europe have strict requirements for container bags in terms of UV resistance, anti-aging, and safety factor.
The "safety factor" is the ratio between the maximum bearing capacity of the product and the rated design load. It mainly depends on whether the contents of the container bag are loaded several times and repeatedly lifted, whether the contents and the bag body are abnormal, and whether the connection is damaged. In similar standards at home and abroad, the setting of the safety factor is generally 5-6 times. FIBC products with five times the safety factor can be used safely for longer. It is an indisputable fact that if the anti-ultraviolet additive is added, the container bag has a wider application range and has a stronger competitiveness.
The standardization of the domestic packaging industry lags behind the development of the packaging industry. The formulation of some standards is inconsistent with the actual production of products, and the content is still at the level of more than ten years ago. For example, the "Container Bag" standard is formulated by the transportation department, the "Cement Bag" standard is formulated by the building materials department, the "Geo textile" standard is formulated by the textile department, and the "Woven Bag" standard is formulated by the plastics department. Due to the lack of full consideration of the pertinence of product use and the interests of the industry, there is no unified, effective, and interest-balanced standard.
The use of container bags in my country is expanding, and the export of container bags for special purposes such as calcium carbide and minerals is also increasing. Therefore, the market demand potential of container bag products is very large, and the development prospect is very broad.
