Polyester feed silos for farms

For the storage of bulk powdered products, such as calcium oxide, calcium hydroxide, or activated carbon, at Metálicas BMM we strongly recommend opting for the best solution: a storage silo. The most common are cylindrical and vertical, with a conical bottom, and mounted on a support structure. They are custom-made for each project, taking into account the environmental conditions, the product to be stored, and the client’s specific needs. They can be made of a variety of materials, as well as their finishes. We highlight: carbon steel, stainless steel, or polyester. You can also choose the height that best suits your needs. We offer capacities from 8 to 200 m3, in different diameters and heights, and are manufactured in a single piece for easy transport and installation. Furthermore, they incorporate the necessary elements for safety and proper use. The equipment must be appropriate for each purpose. All have a roof access ladder that meets all necessary regulations; a cage with protection and a resting platform; a perimeter railing with a toeboard at the top; a bag filter; an overpressure and underpressure valve; and a shut-off valve on the loading pipe. These silos are ideal for containing feed. They guarantee excellent storage on farms.
