GrainPro® Cocoon™ Cargo Instruction Manual
MA4042TSD1014-3
1.
INTRODUCTION
The
GrainPro® Cocoon™ Cargo
is designed to address the growing market demand of transporting
agricultural commodities in Big Bags (officially known as Flexible Intermediate Bulk Container or FIBC;
also called “tote bags” in the USA). Very often, commodities are infested before loading into the
container or are found to be infested upon arrival at destination ports even if they were fumigated with
phosphine prior to loading into containers.
Twenty (20) bags of 700-1000 kg or 10 bags of 1000-1500 kg fit in a standard 20-foot shipping
container. GrainPro developed a Cocoon with the same capacity as a 20-foot container that can
accommodate 20 small or 10 large Big Bags. The Cocoon Cargo zipper is located near the ground to
facilitate handling bulk with forklifts. A sturdier and more durable 1250 g/m
2
PVC allows for outdoor
storage which can handle extreme pressure. The Cocoon Cargo is equipped with a CO
2
or phosphine
treatment port and an air outlet port, which makes it ideal for fumigation.
