Abstract

A bulk bag discharging apparatus (100) comprises a frame (10) for supporting a bulk bag above the ground in use. The apparatus (100) also comprises an outlet (11) with a valve (40). When a bulk bag is placed onto the frame (10) in use, the matter contained therein is dispensable under gravity towards the outlet (11). The valve (40) is configured to selectively control the discharge of the matter through the outlet (11). The apparatus (100) can support a bulk bag above ground level, and this can allow matter to be dispensed from the bulk bag in a convenient and controlled way via the outlet (11).
