UN Bags are designed to carry hazardous products and their use is regulated by the UN Association, commonly known as the “Orange Book”.
There are four types of FIBCs for dangerous goods made from woven polypropylene:
- 13 H 1 - Woven plastics without coating and without liner
- 13 H 2 - Woven plastics, coated and without liner
- 13 H 3 - Woven plastics, uncoated and with liner
- 13 H 4 - Woven plastics, coated and with liner
UN Bags are also classified according to the Hazard level of goods they carry. Each UN Bag shall carry the UN-Symbol mentioned in the below table which shall imply the hazard level of the product.

Please Note:
All UN Bags are treated as multi-trip bags even though there is no safety factor 6:1. This term is unknown in the UN regulations. UN bags are not classified by safety factors. They are instead classified by packing groups I, II or III. The safety factor 6:1 refers to FIBCs for non-dangerous goods only.
UN Test

- Top Lift Test
