Why These Specs Matter (So You Don’t Over-Spec or Under-Spec)

Here’s what causes the most quote mistakes, fast:

Peanut Type (In-Shell vs Shelled)

This changes:

  • dust/fines risk

  • liner importance

  • cleanliness expectations

  • sometimes bag size recommendation (volume needs differ)

Fill/Discharge Styles

If you’re dumping into a line, a discharge spout is cleaner and reduces mess. If you’re cutting bottoms, bags can be simpler—but exposure goes up.

SWL (Safe Working Load)

Don’t run tight. If the target fill is 2,000 lb, many operations choose 2,200 SWL for margin—especially with forklifts and stacking.

Coated vs Uncoated

Coated helps reduce dust “sifting” and improves moisture resistance. Uncoated breathes more and costs less.

Liners (Especially for Moisture)

A basic liner helps cleanliness and dust containment.
A barrier liner helps true moisture control—especially in humid climates, long storage, or export containers.


The “Fast Quote” Trick: Ask for Two Options Side-by-Side

If you want to compare intelligently, ask for quotes like this:

  • Option A: Uncoated + loose liner (baseline)

  • Option B: Coated + form-fit liner (cleaner handling)

  • Option C: Coated + form-fit barrier liner (moisture control)

That gives you a clean cost vs protection ladder.

Bottom Line

If you send the RFQ template above, you’ll get:

  • faster quotes

  • fewer clarification emails

  • fewer wrong assumptions

  • and a bag spec that actually fits how you ship and store peanuts

If you want, paste your filled template here (even rough), and I’ll tighten the specs so your RFQ reads like a pro buyer wrote it.
