Superflex: On the road to haulage without lining


Aran presents a new product – a 55 gallon aseptic bag that already saves on lining materials according to haulage conditions.

The goal of Aran's engineers is to create an aseptic bag that does not require the use of lining materials. A new 55 gallon bag is the first stage on the road to fulfilling this vision.

One of the main challenges in the field of BIB is durability of the packaging for haulage. Whoever deals in the field knows that if a space is formed between the full bag and the external container cap it has to be filled with lining material, in order to prevent the bag from moving inside the container and to thereby prevent the problem of flex-crack during haulage. Aran has therefore set itself a goal for the coming years – to develop a lining free bag – a bag that will not need internal lining in the space between the bag and the barrel cap.
Within framework of these development efforts a new product was born in the factory's laboratory, which constitutes an advanced stage on the way to the bag without lining vision. Aran recently presented Superflex – a 55 gallon aseptic bag for the haulage of liquid products, with exceptional durability to shaking and rolling and especially adapted to long distance haulage. The improved material composite developed by the Aran engineers provides the new bag with greatly improved barrier features, almost to the level of high barrier. In fact, Superflex already enables haulage without lining according to haulage conditions, and thereby also saves on costs and prevents the environmental pollution derived from the use of lining materials such as bubble polyethylene, foamed polystyrene, cardboard, etc. In three words: an optimal solution.
