Type B · Combustible-dust FIBC

Type B FIBC Bulk Bags

Type B has no conductive path, but its fabric is engineered with a breakdown voltage below 6 kV to prevent propagating brush discharges. That makes it the right choice for combustible dusts — while remaining unsuitable for flammable gases or vapours. No grounding is required.

Why this bag

Dust-safe without a grounding system

Engineered for combustible dust

Many powders — starch, sugar, flour, some chemicals — form explosive dust clouds. Type B controls the one ignition route that plain Type A cannot: the propagating brush discharge.

  • Fabric breakdown voltage limited to below 6 kV
  • No conductive path — nothing to ground, simpler handling
  • Correct for combustible dusts (starch, sugar, flour, additives)
  • Not for flammable gases, vapours or solvents
  • Can be paired with a static-protective L2 / L3 liner

Type B build for combustible food and chemical dusts.
Applications

Where Type B FIBCs are used

Combustible dusts only. If flammable gas or vapour is present, use Type C or Type D.

Starch FIBC bulk bag 900x900x1100 mm with food-grade liner

Starch & flour

Combustible food dusts — spout fill and discharge.

Food-grade FIBC bulk bag for flour

Sugar & salt

Fine food powders with dust-explosion risk.

Heavy-duty FIBC bulk bag for sand, aggregate and mortar

Chemical additives

Combustible powders where grounding is impractical.

Note: our ISO 9001 / 14001 / 45001 management system covers the factory. Product conformity to EN ISO 21898 and IEC 61340-4-4, plus batch test reports, are supplied per order — we never present a general certificate as proof that every bag passed product testing.

Compare static types

Type A vs B vs C vs D — pick the right one

Type B is for combustible dust without grounding. Use this table to confirm the right type for your product and site.

TypeHow it worksFlammable dust?Flammable gas / vapour?Grounding needed?
Type APlain PP, no static control✗ No✗ NoNo
Type B (this page)Limited breakdown voltage (<6 kV), no conductive path✓ Yes (dust only)✗ NoNo
Type CConductive threads woven in; must be grounded✓ Yes✓ YesYes
Type DStatic dissipative, no grounding required✓ Yes✓ YesNo

Note: adding a static-protective liner does not change the bag's type classification. A Type B bag with an L2 liner is still Type B.

FAQ

Frequently asked about Type B FIBC

What is a Type B FIBC bag?+
A Type B FIBC has no conductive path to ground, but the fabric is made with a limited breakdown voltage (below 6 kV). This prevents propagating brush discharges during filling and emptying, so Type B may be used with combustible dusts — but never where flammable gas or vapour is present.
What is the difference between Type A and Type B?+
Type A has no electrostatic control at all and is not permitted for combustible dust. Type B uses a low-breakdown-voltage fabric that suppresses propagating brush discharges, so it can be used with combustible dust, but still not with flammable gases or vapours. Neither type requires grounding.
Does Type B need grounding?+
No. Type B has no conductive path, so there is nothing to ground. Its protection comes from limiting the fabric breakdown voltage to below 6 kV to stop propagating brush discharges.
Can Type B be used for solvents or flammable gas?+
No. Type B is only suitable for combustible dusts. For flammable gases or vapours, or for solvents, use Type C (conductive, with reliable grounding) or Type D (static dissipative, no grounding required).
Can I add a liner to a Type B bag?+
Yes — an L2 (antistatic) or L3 (low-breakdown) static-protective liner is compatible with Type B. The liner must not change the bag's type classification. See our FIBC liner types guide.
