Grain bags are manufactured from polyethylene through a three or five-layer co-extrusion process, each layer with different and specific properties. These layers are melted, thus producing a single uniform film, inseparable and with great resistance. The polyethylene is 100% virgin resin, to ensure quality and consistency throughout the film. Additives such as titanium dioxide and UV stabilizers are added to the white (external) layer and a high concentration of carbon black is added to the black (internal) layer.
Advantages of storing in grain bags
- A very low cost per tonne of stored grain.
- It allows you to classify the stored grains regarding its quality and commercial identity (Quality Assurance Control).
- The capacity of the storage facilities is remarkably increased.
- It enables you to increase the operative capacity of harvesting.
- Easy sampling of grains stored by means of a conventional sampler.
- High-priced freights during harvest season can be avoided.
