Information per product data sheet. “On request” means: the data sheet is unclear at this point or gives no information, and we confirm the value before your order. PU = packing unit (pieces per pallet). We state prices in the quotation.

Selection

What matters when choosing

Choose size by weight, not by volume

A 90 × 90 × 110 cm bag holds 0.9 m³ by calculation. Whether the load capacity is reached depends on the bulk density. Check with the Fill Limit Calculator.

With or without skirt

The skirt can be tied shut after filling and keeps dust in. Without a skirt the bag is open and quicker to fill.

Warning print to match the material

Asbestos warning print for asbestos-containing waste, mineral wool warning print for insulation materials. The mineral wool bags deliberately have a lower load capacity (150 to 250 kg).

Seven sizes, three prints: how the 17 big bags are organised

Our big bags come in 7 sizes. The table shows the nominal volume, the number of items and the load capacity for each size. The nominal volume is the product of the external dimensions; the actual fill volume is lower. The standard size 90 × 90 × 110 cm makes up most of the range: in this size the items differ in coating, skirt, load capacity, fabric weight, inner liner and print.

Reading the item numbers

The letters in the item number reveal the version. Items starting with BBA carry the asbestos warning print, BBM the mineral wool warning print; the others with BB are neutral. An appended PE indicates a polyethylene inner liner, as on BBA90PE (50 µm). The number usually gives the edge length (90, 125, 135); an appended 1 or 2, as on BB901 and BB902T, marks a further version of the same size, for example with a higher load capacity. The exact features of each item are in the catalogue table and on the product page, not in the number alone.

Neutral, asbestos or mineral wool

Neutral bags (8 items) are suitable for rubble, excavated material, gravel, sand and bulk material. Asbestos bags (4 items) carry the warning print in seven languages and form the packaging for asbestos waste as named in TRGS 519 no. 18. Mineral wool bags (5 items) deliberately have a low load capacity of 150 to 250 kg, because with old mineral wool volume is the limiting factor, not weight. Notes on labelling can be found in the article Asbestos and mineral wool: packaging and labelling.

Asbestos waste: 4 of these items carry the asbestos warning print. Which packaging TRGS 519 no. 18 names for which waste and what acceptance points require is explained on the page Asbestos big bags and sacks.

Delivery, printing and documents

Big bags are delivered bundled and palletised, from 200 to 1,200 pieces per pallet depending on size. If you want a logo or text printed, you order from 5 pallets per order and motif; for BB90T that is 2,500 pieces. Each item has a product page with data sheet, dimension drawing with lifting loops and notes on the version; declarations of conformity are available for BBA90 and BBA901 (big bags) and BBA320 (sheet bag). If the item you want is missing, the Big Bag Finder or the custom-made option can help.

Questions and answers

Frequently asked questions about big bags

What load capacity do the big bags have?

Depending on the item, from 150 kg (mineral wool) to 1,500 kg. The load capacity is given in the table and in the item's data sheet. The safety factor is stated as 5:1.

When do I need coated big bags?

According to the data sheet, coated fabric protects against the ingress of moisture. It is the better choice for rain, damp material and outdoor storage.

Are the big bags approved for dangerous goods?

No. The items are not designated as UN packaging. We handle dangerous-goods requirements as a special solution.
