Abstract
A principal advantage of this composite bag compared to the bags disclosed in the present art using solid ply is improved combination of strength and flexibility. A composite dunnage bag being an elastic inner bag enclosed in a mesh outer bag. The bag replaces the system of state of the art bags plus filler panels which are currently used when the space between pallets is greater than 12 inches. The combination mesh and plastic is sufficiently strong and flexible to permit the bag to apply an 80% footprint against the cargo walls.
