Ventilated Jumbo Bags

Ventilated Jumbo Bags: The Breathable Solution for Agricultural and Perishable Commodities

A Ventilated Jumbo Bag, also known as a Breathable Bag or Log Bag, is a special type of FIBC that allows the necessary airflow to reach the product inside the bag to avoid the harmful conditions of condensation, moisture retention, and heat retention. This bag plays a vital role in moving and keeping the agricultural products like potatoes, onions, firewood, and cocoa beans, which must be kept dry and cool, and stable to maintain quality and increase shelf life. To promote maximum air flow inside your bulk commodity, Lakhotia Polyfab designs these bags with some internal ventilation.

Engineering Airflow: The Integrated Ventilation System

In contrast to the typical PP woven bags, which are engineered towards total containment (usually with a lamination), the Ventilated Bag is engineered to achieve the ideal balance of structural strength and the required breathability.

Vented Fabric Panels

The main source of the ventilation is the weave of the fabric. The bags are made of woven PP fabric panels that are made with bigger gaps or looser mesh designs. This construction can pass freely through air and moisture vapor, and this encourages the removal of the leftover moisture and avoids the damp, stuffy environment that causes spoilage.

Integrated Air Stripes

In some applications, the bags are made of a blend of regular woven PP cloth to provide strength and ventilated air stripes at strategic locations. They are vertical stripes of very porous and open-mesh fabric stitched into the sides of the bag. This offers dedicated openings of air entering and leaving the structure, which offers a higher level of protection and does not compromise the load-bearing of the primary structural panels.

Structural Integrity

The Ventilated Bag maintains the required strength, although it provides maximum airflow. Such bags are usually constructed based on the Circular/Tubular or reinforced panel design principles that make the bags have a strong Safe Working Load (SWL) of their intended contents (e.g., 1,000 kg of potatoes) and be stackable and forklift-handled.

Operational Necessity and Preservation Benefits

Ventilation is not a feature that is added, but an essential requirement that upholds the quality of particular perishable and harvested products.

Preventing Spoilage and Decay

The newly picked production can be left with surface water, or heat may be produced following the harvesting process. When this moisture and heat are stuck in it, then this increases the biological process of decay, rot, and fungal growth. This moisture is quickly evacuated by the continuous flow of air in the Ventilated Bag that keeps the inside environment cool and dry. This is necessary in maintaining the commercial worth, and it also optimizes the shelf life of the commodity.

Ideal for Curing and Drying Processes

With some products, such as onions, potatoes, and some nuts and beans, the bag is required not only as a means of transportation, but also in the curing or drying process itself. By placing the product in a Ventilated Bag, one can achieve even distribution of air all over the bulk volume, so that the product will be dried evenly, which is required prior to long-term storage or shipment.

Targeted Applications

The breathability necessitates that the Ventilated FIBC should be used in various agricultural and industrial industries where it is required.

Root Vegetables

Potatoes, onions, carrots, and sweet potatoes should be kept cool and dry so they do not sprout and rot.

Firewood and Timber

Storing and transportation of the logs and wood pellets, where the ventilation keeps off the moulds and provides the final drying in the wood.

Beans and Cocoa

Beans, cocoa, and seeds are transported in bulk, and it is essential to control the moisture level to avoid the appearance of mildew and protect the content of the goods in terms of flavor and quality.
