Packaging Decision Table
The examples below are procurement categories, not a substitute for the final packing specification.
| Option | Common procurement advantage | Buyer should confirm |
|---|---|---|
| 25 kg bag | Flexible unit handling and production feeding | Palletizing, liner, labor, and warehouse conditions |
| 500 kg jumbo bag | Fewer units for suitable bulk handling | Lifting frame, forklift capacity, discharge method, and bag specification |
| ISO tank discussion | Molten bulk delivery for equipped plants | Tank compatibility, heating, route, carrier, unloading, and local rules |

FAQ
Is a 500 kg jumbo bag suitable for every plant?
No. The buyer should confirm lifting capacity, discharge equipment, workspace, and production feeding requirements.
Can packing photos be provided before shipment?
Packing and loading photos can be requested as part of the order documentation process.
Is ISO tank supply the same as bagged product?
No. ISO tank discussions generally relate to molten cargo and require a different receiving and safety setup.
