ABSTRACT:
A flexible bulk container has a side wall structure 1 formed from a length of tubular woven fabric comprising a base fabric and a plurality of parallel reinforcing bands such as 2 to 5 integrally woven with the base fabric and extending parallel to the tube axis. A bottom 26 is stitched to the side wall structure at one end of the fabric length and a top wall structure 24 may be secured at the other end of the fabric length. The container has a plurality of lifting loops 20 to 23 at the top end of the fabric length, each lifting loop being formed by cutting back a portion of the base fabric alongside each of two adjacent reinforcing bands (e.g. 3 and 4) to leave parts of the bands projecting from the base fabric, and securing together the free ends of the projecting parts to form the loop (e.g. 20). One of the projecting parts may be twisted through 180.degree. before the free ends are joined together.
