Type D FIBCs are a more practical choice for demanding environments. As with Type C bags, Type D anti-static FIBC bulk containers are resistant to brush discharges and sparks. However, the key advantage here is they don’t need to be grounded during filling and emptying. This can speed up workflows considerably and puts less stress on health and safety personnel.

Type D bags can be used to transport flammable materials and utilized in environments where solvents and combustible gasses are present. However, you’ll still need to be cautious when using them. If the material is contaminated with water or grease, the charge dispersion credentials of the bag are affected. Nearby conductive objects also need to be grounded during the filling and emptying of a Type D FIBC bag.
