01
The top
The filling spout connects to a filling head or hopper for a clean, sealed loading point. It suits automatic filling lines and keeps the fill contained and defined.

Classic Structure
What is this structure
This structure gives the bag a defined spout at both ends: a filling spout above for clean, connected loading, and a discharge spout below for controlled emptying. Material flows in through one spout and out through the other, which makes it the structure of choice for high-throughput bulk moved between silos, hoppers and process lines — automated systems where the bag is a link in a continuous flow.
Key Features
- Defined filling spout and discharge spout
- Clean connected loading on automatic lines
- Controlled repeatable emptying
- A complete flow path for high-throughput bulk
- Both spouts customizable to your equipment
- Suits automated silo–hopper–process systems
02
The bottom
The discharge spout unties to release the product in a controlled flow into the receiving point below, and re-ties to stop. Smooth, repeatable emptying into hoppers and conveyors.
03
Suitable Materials
High-throughput bulk materials moved between silos, hoppers and process lines — granular, powder and lump products on automated handling systems. The two-spout flow path is best where the bag is loaded and emptied repeatedly and mechanically.
Handling Advantages
How it loads, discharges and travels
Loading
The filling spout connects cleanly to a filling head or hopper, giving a defined, contained loading point on automatic lines.
Discharge
The discharge spout provides smooth, controlled emptying into the receiving point below. Flow starts and stops by untying and re-tying, which suits repeated, mechanised cycles.
Transport & Storage
Both spouts tie flat against the bag, so the structure transports and stores like a standard unit. Where very high stacking matters, a flat bottom stacks slightly squarer, but this structure handles normal palletised transport well.

Material Guide
Materials this structure can carry
Six practical examples selected around the bag opening, discharge method and common African mining, construction, agricultural and industrial supply chains.
Cement Powder
Top and bottom spouts create a defined path from packing line to receiving hopper for repeated cement handling.
Hydrated Lime
Hydrated lime can be filled and discharged through enclosed connections, with liner and seam controls selected for the actual process.
Gypsum Powder
Gypsum powder moves cleanly between filling head and process hopper when both spout diameters are matched to the equipment.
Kaolin Clay
Fine kaolin benefits from controlled connections at both ends where dust release and cleanliness need closer management.
Powdered Fertilizer
A connected inlet and outlet support clean transfer of powdered fertilizer between blending, storage and application equipment.
Sulphur Powder
Contained filling and controlled discharge reduce open transfer points. Static-control and compatibility requirements must be confirmed for the specific product and site.
