These are produced out of Ventilated Polypropylene (PP) woven fabrics. These fabrics are specially designed to permit the required air flow through the fabric into the bag. A duffel, or flap is often used as a top closure, and a bottom spout is utilised as a discharge facility. For potato seeds, PP netting is used on two side panels to allow greater air permeability.

Potato suppliers have found great advantages using FIBC’s for handling, storing and transporting their products as opposed to the antiquated 25/50kgs woven sacks or potato boxes. They are commonly used in Egypt, Israel, and in many European and Scandinavian countries.
