From ICI comes a synthetic fibre bag and a separate harness sling to facilitate the carriage of unitized loads. The standard Parabag has a 1 cum (1.3 cyyd) cubic capacity, can hold up to 1.2 tonnes (1.1 tons) of material and is fitted with both filling and emptying socks.
When filling the bag, the sling is simply placed beneath it and the sling straps are pulled over the bag as it fills out. The strength of the sling straps permits the complete, loaded, bag to be mechanically lifted by a fork-lift truck via the loops provided by the sling.
To discharge, the bag is suspended above the receiving hatch and the bottom sock released. The rate of dis=. charge can be controlled by constricting the outlet sock opening. The bag can be stacked two-high in containers and provided the load is secured the bags can also be stowed two-high on a truck platform.
Price: £4.00.
