We are the Exclusive dealer of the Hazibag range in New Zealand and pride ourselves on customer service and the ability to meet every requirement.
Hazibag is a new Flexible Intermediate Bulk Container tested and approved under UN recommendations for the transport and containment of “Packing Group III” Solid Dangerous Goods. Hazibag is certified and approved by a NATA accredited testing facility, carries the CE conformity marking, and it is being built by an ISO 9001 accredited manufacturer.
The new way to pack, transport and dispose of asbestos. Hazibag is the SAFE alternative to the current procedure of wrapping and transporting asbestos after its removal. Once the Asbestos has been placed inside the Hazibag it is fully contained. No chance for accidental exposure for anyone around. One other key feature of Hazibag is that it eliminates the need to use a steel container bin for transport. Hazibag can be placed directly on the collection vehicle to be transported to the landfill.
But, even though Hazibag was created with Asbestos in mind, its final certification makes Hazibag suitable for a variety of Dangerous Goods and Hazardous Wastes

HOW DO I SAFELY LIFT THE HAZIBAG?
Before lifting always check your Hazibag for possible damage during filling. Always read the handling instructions printed on the Hazibag label. In general the Hazibag should be lifted and lowered vertically and symmetrically, taking care to avoid jerky movements and swinging. Please note that most transport damages occur due to improper handling. Under no circumstance allow any person to be standing or moving below a suspended Hazibag.

HANDLING THE HAZIBAG WITH FORKLIFTS & CRANES OR HOISTS.
The fork lift must be suitable for the load to be carried. When moving loads hanging from the fork lift incorrectly, there is a danger that the fork lift could become unstable. To avoid this care should be taken that the Hazibag is placed close to the mast and as low as possible with the mast tilted slightly backwards. The load should not obstruct the view of the driver and care should be taken that the wheels of the forklift do not damage the Hazibag. The forks should be free of sharp edges to avoid damage to the Hazibag. The forklift should be stopped before the Hazibag is lowered or raised. Hazibags must not be dragged.

HANDLING THE HAZIBAG WITH CRANES OR HOISTS.
Hooks, spreader bars or other devices used for lifting, should have rounded edges and/or protective covers. Hazibag recommends using hooks with a safety latch to prevent accidental slipping off the hook. When the Hazibag is suspended, the loops must be vertical, without any twists or knots.

RIGHTING A FALLEN HAZIBAG.
To right (lift) a Hazibag that has toppled (fallen) on its side, an endless sling, wound through all the lifting loops should be used. Any attempt to right the Hazibag using fewer loops than those provided may result in the loops being torn off.

CORRECT STACKING OF FILLED HAZIBAGS.
When stacking the Hazibags 2 or more high the necessary stability has to be considered and every effort should be made to ensure that the stack is stable. Where possible, Hazibags should be stacked between retaining walls to achieve better stability. When only free stacking is possible, a pyramid shaped stacking is preferable. Never exceed the maximum stacking load of the Hazibag. Hazibags should not be pushed into a stack as this can damage the Hazibag. Moreover, special compression characteristics of the material filled have to be considered when stacking
