Jumbo bags can make bulk mineral handling more efficient, but buyers should plan lifting, unloading, storage and documentation before the shipment arrives. Kasbonex Global’s current barite offer is based on 1.5-ton jumbo bags.
Confirm the net weight basis
The quotation and packing list should state the agreed net weight per bag and the total shipment quantity. Buyers should also confirm the tolerance and verification method used for commercial acceptance.
Plan lifting and unloading
The receiving site should have equipment rated for the loaded bag and a procedure that protects personnel and packaging during unloading. Bags must not be lifted with unsuitable or damaged equipment.
Protect the material during storage
Store bags in a dry, controlled area and protect them from standing water, damaged flooring and contamination. Follow the product safety data sheet and the site’s handling procedure.
Match shipment size to project demand
For project or monthly supply, include the consumption schedule in the RFQ. This helps structure delivery lots and avoids unnecessary storage pressure at the receiving site.
Documents to align before dispatch
- Packing list with bag count and weights
- Certificate of analysis where required
- Safety data sheet
- Commercial and shipment documents
- Inspection records when included in the purchase terms

Frequently asked questions
Can delivery be planned in several lots?
It can be evaluated when the buyer provides the required schedule, quantity per delivery and destination.
Does jumbo-bag supply remove the need for safe handling procedures?
No. The receiving company remains responsible for suitable equipment, trained personnel and site-specific handling controls.
