Ventilated FIBCs and Retail Mesh Bags for Onion Supply Chains
If onions move between sites before retail packing, qualify two packs on one enquiry. For transfer, start with the ventilated FIBC listing that shows a mesh duffle top and four side-seam loops. For retail, use the smallest onion grade to select a drawstring net. Trial both with the same batch and measure loss at the handoff.
Before requesting a sample
- The starting specificationFor bulk transfer document the normal receiving and emptying method. For retail packs identify sale weight, smallest onions and the final display condition separately.
- Inputs for your first reviewSend two specifications with the point of handoff marked.

The handoff from transfer to retail packing
Qingdao Novapack Packaging Co., Ltd. manufactures woven polypropylene FIBCs in Qingdao, China. Tell us how you will fill and handle this bag so we can review the drawing, components and the checks you need on the selected build.
Map filling, transport between sites, receiving and retail packing. Record where the onions wait and where they move from a bulk bag to an individual pack.
For retail packs identify sale weight, smallest onions and the final display condition separately.
Use the result to rule out unmatched models before requesting a production quote.
Start with a single onion grade through transfer and repacking. Record condition on arrival, losses at opening, and final pack size. Treat ventilation at storage level and mesh retention at retail as separate checks.

Ventilated Bag and Retail Mesh Conversion
The FIBC assembly joins the specified ventilated areas, skirt, body and lifting webbing. The retail mesh pack uses a different opening and closure process. Check the filled bulk bag and its discharge or opening at receipt, then compare retention, visible damage and packed weight after the same onions enter the smaller bag.
Technical background Agricultural and packaging net construction
Bulk panels, loops and top details establish station fit; retail mesh and drawstrings establish visible pack retention and closure. Those choices go onto two linked drawings.
Ask us to label both sample types and what each test is meant to confirm.
The mesh top at the opening
Review the top closure and how your team will gain access at the repacking station. Keep photos of the relevant opening and lifting points as part of the trial file.
- Check opening strength and access in transferA vented panel and a mesh top create different opening patterns. Review how the bulk candidate opens at the receiving step and where produce can contact edges.
- Acceptance recordCapture access and the planned emptying interface on the bulk drawing.

Retail mesh for each pack size
Set the finished weight, the smallest onion size, the closure and label position. Compare tubular drawstring options with that same grade before approval.
| Technical check | Check neck and body opening with packed onions and the normal closure method. Visual presentation and retention should be reviewed on a closed loaded pack. |
|---|---|
| For approval | Record retail weight, variety and grade along with the closure result. |
The receiving point and emptying method
Use the equipment and available space at the repacking station to check the bulk bag interface. Tell us whether the transfer process needs a specific base or top.
Observe how onions reach the grading or packing table and where extra handling or a restricted opening creates a bottleneck.
Retain a receiving layout showing each equipment interface and worker access.
Onion condition after each stage
Keep the grade and filled weights consistent. Record loose product, visible damage and final pack dimensions as the trial passes through both stages.
- Inspect onion condition at each transferCheck normal units from the same lot before bulk packing and after retail repacking. Compare visible damage or condition changes by stage.
- Acceptance recordAttach dated inspection photos and location notes to the respective sample records.

Two sample approvals on one quotation
Keep each product on a separate line, with its own construction, quantities, order terms and documentation. Compare a combined shipment with separate deliveries using the same product specifications.
| Technical check | Confirm geometry and handling evidence for bulk transfer and closure, mesh and presentation checks for retail. Keep distinct production and receiving identifiers. |
|---|---|
| For approval | Split both approval records and quote lines while retaining the same order reference. |
The sample check at repacking
Review a filled retail mesh pack and the bulk material beside it. Keep the sample references with the observations so you can change one stage without repeating the other approval.
- Check the seam and finish at repackingInspect an approved retail sample before and after the normal workflow. Note if top closure or produce grade affects how the pack handles.
- Acceptance recordKeep the smallest grade and finished waist or neck views on the sign-off.
