Bags

Grain Bag System (GBS) bags are a premium bag with unique properties that makes it a valuable piece of the technology to complete the Grain Bag System.

Why use our Bags

GBS bags have a unique formula that includes a proprietary resin (plastic) that:

GBS bags have more Ultra-Violet Inhibitor (UVI) than the forage bags. More UVI offers longer protection in the sun.
Keeps better shape! When using a roll-up style unloader this feature is extremely important. Since dry grain is heavier than forage, its weight and the tendency to flow makes the bags try to “pillow out”. On bags that end up too wide, the roll-up style unloader has a real problem on the sides.
Increased side wall strength provides better protection due to possible erroneous over-stretching.
The higher temperature tolerance of this unique additive allows dry grain to be bagged at a higher ambient air temperature. This can be even more valuable if the customer is bagging hot grain coming from a grain dryer.

Cost Considerations

Is it wise to gamble your valuable commodity with what appears to be a savings of only pennies per bushel?

9 ft. x 250 ft. with a capacity of around 10,260 bushels of wheat or 10,000 bushels of corn. (empty bag weight is 335 lbs.)*Amount varies with moisture content, specific weight and bagger pressure settings.

The bag is sealed airtight with a life of 1 to 1.5 years in the open, preventing the development and reproduction of fungus and insect. This airtight environment can eliminate the need for chemicals with an average bag cost of 7¢ cents per bushel of stored grain.

These unique Grain Bags allow for storage amounts to vary by simply cutting the bag and resealing it again.

GBS bags have an 18 month warranty against Ultra-Violet degradation, defective material and workmanship. Forage bags are not recommended for long term storage of dry grain.
