Big Bag Lifting Beam Manufacturer in Saudi Arabia
Century Experts is a trusted manufacturer and supplier of Big Bag Lifting Beams, engineered to provide a safe, stable, and efficient solution for lifting FIBC (Flexible Intermediate Bulk Container) bags using a crane, forklift, or hoist across Saudi Arabia.
Our Big Bag Lifting Beams are fabricated from high-quality structural steel by qualified welders using approved fabrication procedures. Each beam is designed with hook or loop attachment points positioned to match standard big bag lifting loop configurations, keeping the bag centered and level while filling, emptying, or transporting bulk materials.
We manufacture both standard and custom-built Big Bag Lifting Beams with various capacities, loop configurations, and lengths to suit specific bag sizes and site requirements. Engineering calculations, inspection, proof load testing, and third-party certification can be provided upon request.
We proudly supply Big Bag Lifting Beams throughout Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam, Jubail, Al Khobar, Yanbu, Makkah, Madinah, Qassim, Al Kharj, NEOM, and across Saudi Arabia.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. What is a Big Bag Lifting Beam?
A Big Bag Lifting Beam is a steel frame fitted with hooks or attachment points designed to engage the lifting loops of an FIBC (big bag), allowing it to be lifted, moved, filled, or emptied using a crane, forklift, or hoist without manually handling the loops.
2. How does the beam attach to the big bag?
The beam is fitted with hooks or shackle points spaced to match the four lifting loops of a standard FIBC bag. The bag’s loops are placed over the hooks, and the beam’s central top point is then connected to the crane hook, forklift attachment, or hoist.
3. Will the beam fit any size of big bag?
Our standard beams are designed to fit common FIBC bag sizes and loop spacing, but since bag dimensions vary between suppliers, we recommend confirming your bag’s loop spacing and size so the beam can be built or adjusted to match without over-stretching or straining the loops.
4. What load capacities are available?
We manufacture Big Bag Lifting Beams from standard capacities suited to typical 1-tonne FIBC bags up to heavy-duty capacities for larger industrial or bulk bags, with capacity determined by hook spacing, beam section, and rated working load.
5. Can the beam be used with a forklift instead of a crane?
Yes. Many of our Big Bag Lifting Beams are designed with a fork pocket or single shackle point, allowing the same beam to be used with either a forklift’s forks or a crane hook, depending on what is available on site.
6. Is there a risk of the bag tipping or swinging during lifting?
The beam’s balanced hook layout is designed to keep the bag centered under the lifting point, minimizing tipping or swinging. However, uneven filling of the bag can still cause it to lean, so we recommend loading big bags as evenly as possible before lifting.
7. What standards does your Big Bag Lifting Beam comply with?
Our Big Bag Lifting Beams can be designed and manufactured in accordance with ASME B30.20, ASME BTH-1, OSHA 29 CFR 1926.1413, and project-specific client requirements.
8. Is testing and certification available for the lifting beam?
Yes. We provide proof load testing, third-party inspection through approved agencies, and a Certificate of Conformity for every Big Bag Lifting Beam, along with an identification plate showing rated capacity and serial number.
9. Can the beam be customized for our specific bag size or site?
Yes. We fabricate Big Bag Lifting Beams to custom hook spacing, capacity, attachment type (crane or forklift), and finish, based on the bag size and lifting method used at your facility.
