More Info
CROHMIQ® is the leading technology for ungrounded static protective fabrics for safe use in flexible intermediate bulk containers (FIBC) for sensitive flammable vapor and dust atmospheres. In 1995, CROHMIQ blue® fabric was introduced to the market.  Since then, CROHMIQ® has become the leader for ungrounded static protective FIBC. The patented CROHMIQ® fabric is used around the world by many leading Fortune® 500 manufacturers.  click here for more information
About Static Protective FIBC Fabrics
There are very important differences between Type D FIBC and Type C FIBC, specifically on the mechanism of safety from static discharges and proper use. Type D FIBC are sometimes called antistatic FIBC, groundable Type D+ / D plus, or C/D; however, only CROHMIQ is the leading static protective FIBC fabric because CROHMIQ Type D FIBC do not require grounding to be safe.  Process safety experts in the field of electrostatics, and static hazards have written articles about performance and test standards and the improved safety of Type D FIBC. CROHMIQ's design engineers invented and patented the first fabric for Type D FIBC and TEXENE continues to perform research and development on Type D FIBC and electrostatic phenomena in FIBC.

Safely managing the occurrence of static electricity during FIBC (flexible intermediate bulk container) filling and emptying operations is a critical concern in the chemical process industry. Static discharges from an FIBC can range from operator nuisance shocks to those capable of igniting flammable gasses, vapors and dusts. By using an FIBC (or bulk bag) with static protective properties, the risk of a hazardous static discharge is significantly reduced. An FIBC made of CROHMIQ® static protective FIBC fabric is a static dissipative (Type D) FIBC not a static conductive (Type C) FIBC.
