How We Eliminated 94% of Feed Bag Deformation Using 3D Warp Knitting
Anti-bulge FIBC bags aren’t just containers—they’re your feed mill’s load-bearing foundation. At VidePak, we’ve engineered a 3D warp-knitted structure that reduces bag deformation by 94% while optimizing global supply chains. The secret? Combining Starlinger’s circular looms with AI-driven load distribution analysis. Let’s explore how we’re redefining safe feed transportation.
