Eco-Friendly Bulk Bags, Engineered to Perform

FlexSack-eco is our line of recycled FIBCs. Two materials, one goal: lower the carbon footprint of your packaging without giving up strength or reliability.

Sustainability shouldn’t cost you performance. The FlexSack-eco line gives sustainability-focused operations a recycled bulk bag that still meets the standards you expect from FlexSack. Choose recycled (rPET) for the largest carbon reduction and food-contact potential, or recycled polypropylene (rPP) for a familiar, proven material with recycled content built in.

Recycled PET Bulk Bags (rPET)

A first-of-its-kind FIBC for North America. Made from 100% recycled PET, with a 57% lower carbon footprint than virgin polypropylene and performance that beats standard PP on UV, abrasion, and heat.

Recycled Polypropylene Bulk Bags (rPP)

The bulk bag you already know, now woven with 20-30% recycled content. Signature green threads, virgin-PP performance, and the test reports to prove it.

Why Choose a Recycled Bag?

Lower Carbon Footprint

Recycled material starts with a much smaller carbon load than virgin resin, and that reduction carries through to every company that handles the bag.

Real Performance

Recycled content doesn’t mean a weaker bag. Both FlexSack-eco materials are built to meet the standards of their virgin-material counterparts.

A Strong Sustainability Story

For teams reporting on Scope 3 emissions or working toward sustainability targets, lower-carbon packaging is a measurable, defensible win.

Recognized, Certified, & Tested

The rPET bulk bags we supply are produced by a manufacturing partner using an award-winning, patented recycling process. The bags and the process behind them have earned international packaging awards and are backed by third-party certifications for recycled content, quality, and food safety.

Our Sustainability Journey

FlexSack’s commitment to sustainability started well before our eco line launched.

We set production and waste-reduction goals with our own overseas partners, vetted plants for a shared commitment to energy efficiency and scrap reduction, and then focused on the part customers actually buy: the product. The result is FlexSack-eco, our recycled FIBC line, with more sustainable options on the way as the technology matures. If you want the full background on how we got here, reach out to our team and we’ll walk you through it.

FAQs

Eco-friendly bulk bags, or recycled FIBCs, are made partly or fully from recycled plastic instead of virgin resin. FlexSack-eco offers two: rPET (100% recycled PET) and rPP (20-30% recycled polypropylene).

rPET is made from 100% recycled PET and delivers the largest carbon reduction plus food-contact potential and higher performance than PP. rPP uses 20-30% recycled polypropylene in a familiar, proven material at a lower price point.
Yes. FlexSack-eco bags are built to meet the test standards of their virgin-material equivalents, and rPET outperforms standard PP on several measures.
Common uses include agriculture and fertilizer, food-grade materials, chemicals, plastics, and building materials.
