Liquid Fertilizers Packaging
Proper packaging of fertilizer products is crucial. Fertilizer packaging must be UV resistant and sealable to protect from water and contaminants. As consumers become more eco-conscious, many companies are adopting eco-friendly packaging to meet buyer expectations.
Fertilizer companies have multiple options for liquid fertilizer packaging. Here’s an overview of common choices to help assess the best fit.
IBC Liners for Liquid Fertilizers Packaging
IBC pillow bag liners are excellent for non-UN liquid fertilizers. Available in multiple sizes, they meet different storage and transport needs. Easy to fill, they save time and streamline operations. Space-efficient, they make shipping up to 25% cheaper than traditional drums, optimizing storage and transportation space. IBC liners protect fertilizers, maintaining quality and extending shelf life by shielding them from environmental factors.
Form-Fit: Fitting to the name, these liners are designed to fit snugly into the container. With a low defect rate and designed to maximize product evacuation, Form-Fit liners are ideal for top-fill applications.
Air-Assist: These liners are similar to Form-Fit liners, except they also include an air bladder, which inflates and helps even further maximize product evacuation. It’s designed for viscous products and enables convenient, hands-free dispensing.
Pillow liners: Standard pillow liners are created using layers of low-density PPE and a barrier film for aseptic applications.
Bag-in-Box for Liquid Fertilizers Packaging
Bag-in-box packaging uses low-density polyethylene (LDPE), offering durability and flexibility. It meets industry standards, ensuring safe storage and transport of sensitive chemicals like fertilizers, and eliminates PFAS, providing a cleaner, safer option.
CDF offers various bag-in-box solutions, including the UN 20L Cheertainer, which is ideal for hazardous materials. The form-fit, UN-certified Cheertainer combines rigid container benefits with flexible packaging. It reduces glugging and splashing, ensuring compliance with stringent transportation requirements. The aseptic design keeps fertilizers uncontaminated, extending shelf life. Eco-friendly and space-efficient, these solutions reduce shipping costs and environmental impact, with customizable options available.
Drum and Pail Liners for Liquid Fertilizers Packaging
Drum liners extend the shelf life of liquid fertilizers by protecting them from elements and extreme temperatures. Clean, cost-efficient, and sustainable, they work well with steel and plastic drums. They reduce cleaning and maintenance costs and potentially lower transportation expenses. Drum liners contribute to sustainability by extending the life of drums and minimizing harsh chemical use, reducing waste and environmental impact. Adaptable to various materials, they fit existing setups without new investments. For UN-rated hazardous materials, CDF’s UltraLiner™ assists in creating UN-certified packaging solutions.
40% = 34.7 million tons
According to a Flexible Packaging Association (FPA) study, nearly 40% – or 34.7 million tons – of all produced foods are sent to landfill each year.
Cost Savings of Sustainable Packaging
Running an eco-friendly business isn’t just good for the environment. It’s also good for your bottom line. Our packaging materials are flexible to allow you to stack more product per pallet than would otherwise be possible. In fact, just one truckload of our bag-in-box packaging is the equivalent of up to ten truckloads of traditional pails. This significantly lowers your shipping costs. It also makes it easy for you to ensure sales partners have plenty of stock available at all times.
Are you ready to transform your liquid fertilizer packaging to lower costs, boost sales, and benefit the environment? If so, get in touch with us at your convenience to find out more about our packaging options or to review the container sizes and/or packaging materials that best meet your needs.
