A bag-in-box is a
type of container for a storage and transportation of liquids. It consists of a
strong plastic bag usually made up of several layers of metalized film, or
other plastics, seated inside a corrugated fiberboard box.
The bag is supplied
to the filler as an empty pre-made bag. The filler then generally removes the
tap, fills the bag, and replaces the tap. The bags are available as singles for
semi-automatic machines as web bags, where the bags have perforations between
each one.
These are used on
automated filling systems where the bag is separated on line either before the
bag is automatically filled. Depending on the end use, there are a number of
options that can be used on the bag instead of the tap.
The bags can be
filled from chilled product temperatures up to 85° Celsius. Bag-in-box
packaging can be made using form seal fill (FSF) technology; where the bags are
manufactured on-line from reels of film, then the FlexTap is inserted; then
filled on integral rotary head filler. This technology is currently limited to
the packing of wine products.

Bag-in-box is
attaining significance as it reduces the cost per transport considerably. The
containers used in bag-in-box are reusable as only liner bags need to be
changed in this case. These containers do not decay the product, cause no
corrosion, and can easily be cleaned.
Use of bag-in-box
containers results in optimum space utilization. All these factors are
collectively anticipated to account for increasing demand for bag in box
containers over the forecast period.
The Containers/boxes
used hold chief importance as they ensure safety and security of the products
carried in it. These bags also known as Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBC).
These containers also help in pallet utilization as compared to drums.
These containers are
extremely long lasting and constructed from plastic; which enables cleaning
them thoroughly before use. These containers can also withstand exposure to
sunlight and are moisture resistant.
