Description: The McCoy™ dunnage free IBC liner protects up to 330 gallons of aseptic food products such as diced tomatoes through the supply chain via abusive intermodal transport. This industry-changing solution is one of the many hardworking industrial flexible packages that never sees a retail shelf. The stronger, lighter IBC virtually eliminates the need for layers of protective dunnage at the top and bottom of containers, which significantly reduces packaging waste and cost, streamlines processing, and improves sustainability. Benefits include 40% system cost savings over conventional liners and a 25% reduction in carbon footprint.
