Bags
Packaging

Standard packaging for CS 183F-11C chopped strand products is 1000 kg polypropylene bag with bottom discharge (1 bag/pallet).

Storage & Handling

Storage

It is recommended to store chopped strand products indoor at room temperature and at a relative humidity of 50% ± 15%. The product should remain in its original packaging, preferably closed. In order to prevent static electricity and humidity problems, the chopped strand material must be conditioned in the working place just prior to use.In case a packaging unit is only partly used, it should be immediately re-sealed.The pallet can be single stacked only
