Big Bags for Starch
Food-grade big bags for corn, wheat and potato starch: sift-proof construction for fine powder, moisture-barrier liners, BRC IoP AA certified production.
Starch is one of the finest food ingredients carried in big bags. It sifts through uncoated fabric and seams, and when it absorbs moisture it cakes and becomes difficult to discharge.
What matters in a big bag for starch is sift-proofing and a moisture barrier.

Every big bag is made to order. Dimensions, capacity and fittings are defined together with you, based on your product and your filling and discharge line.

What to consider for starch
- Dust leakage: A liner or coated fabric is combined with dust-proof seams.
- Moisture: Starch attracts moisture; a moisture-barrier liner keeps the product free-flowing.
- Discharge: Fine powders tend to bridge; the discharge spout is sized to your discharge station.
- Stacking: A Q-Bag keeps its shape and uses warehouse and container space more efficiently.
