FIBC’s are commonly mechanically handled by one of the following means:
Lift Loops: Loops are located at the corners of the FIBC.  The loops are either sewn onto the body of the FIBC or they are sewn into the side seams.  The size of the loop opening, the length of the ends and strength of the webbing can be customized depending on the handling needs and safe working load.
Stevedore Straps: A belt or rope connecting either two adjacent lift loops, or all four loops, used for single point lifting.
Single Point Lift:  Created by extending the lift loop material or body fabric so it can be gathered at one point above the bag.
Sleeve Lift:  The tubular sleeves running along two opposite edges of the FIBC.
