IBC liners create a sealed barrier between your product and the inner walls of the IBC bottle, eliminating cross-contamination risk and dramatically reducing cleaning costs between loads. Our form-fit liners are precision-engineered to match the cubic geometry of standard 275-gallon and 330-gallon composite IBCs, ensuring wrinkle-free installation and complete product evacuation. For single-use applications, we offer liners in LDPE (low-density polyethylene) for general-purpose liquids, foil-laminated film for oxygen- and moisture-sensitive products, and nylon-based multi-layer films for enhanced puncture resistance and chemical barrier properties. Our reusable liners are constructed from heavy-duty materials that can withstand multiple fill-and-drain cycles, CIP (clean-in-place) wash procedures, and steam sterilization. Aseptic versions feature gamma-irradiated, pre-sterilized liners sealed in clean-room packaging — ready for immediate installation in pharmaceutical, biotech, and food-processing environments. Every liner includes a standard 2" fill/discharge fitment that threads directly onto your IBC's outlet valve, and optional top-fill ports, vent filters, and sampling ports are available for specialized processes. By using liners, you can ship different products in the same IBC without risk of flavor carry-over, chemical residue, or batch contamination — saving thousands of dollars annually on container purchases and cleaning labor.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the advantage of using an IBC liner instead of cleaning the container?
IBC liners eliminate the need for costly and time-consuming container cleaning between product changes. A single cleaning cycle can cost $30–$75 per container and requires water, detergent, labor, and wastewater disposal. A disposable liner costs a fraction of that and can be installed in under two minutes, allowing you to switch products instantly with zero risk of cross-contamination or residue carryover.
Can I use an IBC liner for food-grade products?
Yes. Our food-grade liners are manufactured from FDA 21 CFR 177-compliant virgin polyethylene and are produced in certified clean-room facilities. They are also available with Kosher and Halal certifications. For products requiring aseptic packaging, our gamma-irradiated liners provide validated sterility assurance levels (SAL) of 10⁻⁶.
How do I install an IBC liner?
Installation takes approximately 1–2 minutes. Open the top lid of the IBC, unfold the liner and drop it into the container, thread the discharge fitment through the IBC outlet from the inside, and secure it to the valve from the outside. Smooth the liner against the walls as the container fills. Detailed installation guides and videos are available upon request.
What is a foil-laminated liner and when should I use one?
A foil-laminated liner combines a polyethylene inner layer with an aluminum foil barrier and an outer protective layer. The aluminum foil provides an absolute barrier against oxygen, moisture, and light transmission. Use foil-laminated liners for oxygen-sensitive products (essential oils, certain chemicals), moisture-sensitive powders, and products that degrade under UV exposure.
Are IBC liners recyclable?
Single-use LDPE liners are recyclable through standard polyethylene recycling streams (resin code #4). Foil-laminated and multi-layer liners cannot be recycled through conventional programs due to their mixed-material construction. We recommend checking with your local waste management provider for specific recycling guidelines in your area.
