The lifting loops are among the most critical components of a bulk bag, as they carry the load during lifting, transport, and discharge. They connect the bag to handling equipment such as forklifts, cranes, and automated systems. The loops are typically made of tightly woven polypropylene or polyester with high tensile strength and may be reinforced with additional layers or multiple rows of stitching. The loops are made from high-quality raw materials and may include UV stabilizers to enhance strength and long-term durability.
Most common, attached
to corner seams
Stand upright to facilitate forklift tine insertion
Allow forklift tines to be inserted directly through the bag
Enable lifting from a single point or two lifting points
High-quality loops are designed to distribute the load evenly across the bag body and reduce concentrated stress points. They also undergo rigorous load testing and are specified according to Safe Working Load (SWL) and safety factor.

Bag Stability During Movement
Proper use of the lifting loops, including vertical lifting without twisting, supports safe operation and helps extend the bag’s service life.
