Big bag 135 × 135 × 130 cm: both versions compared

In the size 135 × 135 × 130 cm we carry 2 big bags: 1 with asbestos warning print, 1 with mineral wool warning print. The page puts them side by side: features, load capacity, packing unit and fill quantities. Each item also has its own page with data sheet, dimension drawing and printing.

How the versions differ

The same external dimensions do not mean the same version. At 135 × 135 × 130 cm the 2 items differ in these features:

  • Print: asbestos warning print in seven languages BBA135; mineral wool warning print in three languages BBM135.
  • Load capacity: 250 kg: BBM135; 1,000 kg: BBA135.
  • Packing unit: 200 pieces BBA135, 350 pieces BBM135.

Which version for which condition

The table assigns typical conditions to the versions. It is a guide based on the data sheet information; your risk assessment and the requirements of your waste disposal company take precedence. With the Big Bag Finder you reach a recommendation in three questions.

ConditionRecommendationItems
Asbestos waste (TRGS 519), ask the acceptance point in advanceAsbestos warning printBBA135
old mineral wool (TRGS 521)Mineral wool warning printBBM135
higher load, up to 1,000 kgItem with the highest load capacityBBA135
light material, 250 kg is enoughItem with the lowest load capacityBBM135

Fill quantities in 135 × 135 × 130 cm

The nominal volume is 2.37 m³ with 1.82 m² base area and 130 cm height. The table shows up to what height you may fill for each load capacity and how much the bag then weighs. Where it says “full height”, the bag does not reach its load capacity; the value after it is the weight of the full bag.

Material (guide value)BBM135
250 kg load capacity
BBA135
1,000 kg load capacity
Old mineral wool, loose (0.10 t/m³)full height, 235 kgfull height, 235 kg
Wood chips (0.25 t/m³)55 cm, 250 kgfull height, 590 kg
Plastic granules (0.60 t/m³)23 cm, 250 kg91 cm, 1,000 kg
Sand, dry (1.50 t/m³)9 cm, 250 kg37 cm, 1,000 kg

Calculation as in the Fill Limit Calculator: nominal volume from the external dimensions, bulk density as a guide value. The measured bulk density of your material is what counts. The guide values apply to typical bulk materials, not to asbestos waste.

Handling in 135 × 135 × 130 cm

  • Attach all four lifting loops; crane and forklift are possible. Do not lift by only two loops, do not stand under a suspended load, do not drag across the ground and do not pierce the bag with a fork.
  • Coated items (BBA135, BBM135) protect against the ingress of moisture according to the data sheet and are suitable for rain and outdoor storage. UV light still weakens the fabric.
  • Tie the skirt shut after filling if dust is to be retained.
  • Items with asbestos warning print (BBA135): leave the warning print visible and clarify type of packaging and maximum weight with the acceptance point in advance; see Asbestos big bags and sacks.
  • Items with mineral wool warning print (BBM135): because of the low density of old mineral wool, volume limits the filling, not weight.
  • Lifting equipment, lifting accessories and ground must be rated for the weight of the filled bag, at 135 × 135 × 130 cm up to 1,000 kg.

General rules are in the article Handling and storage of big bags.

How to order

Save the items you want from 135 × 135 × 130 cm with the heart, enter the quantities on the enquiry form and send it. We reply with an item suggestion, data sheets and a quotation; we state prices in the quotation. Still open in the data sheet: BBA135 (fabric weight); BBM135 (fabric weight). We confirm these details in writing before you order, and you should plan lifting equipment, filling and number of pallets only with the confirmed values. No declaration of conformity is available for any item of this size; for the others we send it as soon as the EU type-examination certificate is available (Documents).

Frequently asked questions about big bag 135 × 135 × 130 cm

Which version in 135 × 135 × 130 cm should I choose?

That depends on material, storage and marking. The table “Which version for which condition” assigns typical cases. In the Big Bag Finder you answer three questions and receive a recommendation with reasons.

Why are there several items in 135 × 135 × 130 cm?

Because the versions differ in features such as print, load capacity and packing unit, even though the external dimensions are the same. Each item has its own data sheet and its own product page.

How much may I fill into a big bag 135 × 135 × 130 cm?

That depends on the load capacity of the chosen item (250 to 1,000 kg). With dry sand (1.50 t/m³), the item with 250 kg load capacity reaches its limit at about 9 cm of 130 cm height. The fill quantity table gives the values for all load capacities.

How many pieces fit on a pallet?

BBA135: 200 pieces, BBM135: 350 pieces. Printing is possible from 5 pallets per order and motif.

What does my acceptance point require for asbestos waste?

That differs locally: the Stade district, for example, states a maximum of 750 kg per big bag, and the Schweinfurt district excludes container big bags. Ask your waste disposal company before ordering; see Asbestos big bags and sacks.
