What Are Type C Bulk Bags?
Type C FIBCs (also known as conductive bulk bags or grounded bags) are made from conductive or interwoven fabrics designed to safely dissipate static electricity through grounding. They must be connected to a grounding point during filling and discharge to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) in flammable or explosive atmospheres.
Why Use Type C Over Type B or D?
| Type | Dissipates Static? | Grounding Required | Safe with Flammable Gases |
|---|---|---|---|
| A | ❌ No | ❌ No | ❌ No |
| B | ⚠️ Partial | ❌ No | ❌ No |
| C | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes |
| D | ✅ Yes | ❌ No (auto-dissipative) | ✅ Yes |
Type C is preferred when:
✔ Static control is essential
✔ Reliable grounding can be ensured
✔ Compliance with safety standards is mandatory

Why Choose jhton
About jhton
jhton is a trusted Type C bulk bag manufacturer in China with 16+ years of experience. We supply grounded, conductive FIBCs designed to safely transport and store flammable powders or materials in explosive environments.
When should I use Type C FIBCs?
Use Type C bags when:
-
You’re handling flammable powders or combustible dust
-
You’re operating in explosive atmospheres (ATEX zones)
-
Flammable gases, vapors, or solvents are present
-
You require compliance with IEC 61340-4-4 or NFPA 77 static control standards
Can Type A jumbo bags prevent static electricity?
No. Type A bags do not offer protection against static electricity. They are not designed to dissipate or prevent electrostatic buildup. If static control is needed, consider Type B, C, or D FIBCs instead.
Are Type A FIBCs safe for use with food products?
Yes—if manufactured in a food-safe facility and combined with a food-grade inner PE liner. At jhton, we can produce Type A FIBCs that meet food-grade standards upon request.
What happens if a Type C bag is not grounded?
If not properly grounded, a Type C FIBC can accumulate static electricity during filling or discharging. This can lead to electrostatic discharges (ESD), which may cause explosions or fire in sensitive environments.
How do I ground a Type C bag properly?
Type C bags come with grounding tabs or loops. These must be securely connected to a verified ground point during both filling and discharging operations. Always follow site-specific safety protocols and test grounding continuity.
Can I reuse Type C FIBCs?
Yes, but only if:
-
The bag is rated 6:1 safety factor (multi-use)
-
It passes visual and structural inspection
-
Grounding threads and tabs are intact and functional
-
It meets your country’s reuse and reconditioning regulations
Do you offer liners with Type C bags?
Yes, optional liners are available. However, if used, the liner must also be conductive or properly bonded to ensure continued grounding and safe static discharge.
