With a heartbreaking figure of 10% of total foodgrain yield getting wasted in India due to inadequate storage infrastructure, it’s high time that we reconsider using conventional storage methods like gunny bags, concrete structures and MS storage structures. The wastage is mainly caused due to moisture affecting the grainsand extreme temperature variation resulting infungus formation and minimal handling of food grains.

Fowler Westrup offers the ideal solution with world-class Galvanized Silo Storage Systems - the best and safest storage & grain handling systems with grain management that provide a new-age answer for the same age-old problems. The Silos are engineered using the best materials and proven technology for optimum temperature and humidity control. They retain the quality of stored grains for a longer duration while reducing wastage as well as manpower costs. Fowler Westrup Provides Single Window end to end Complete Project Management right from collecting requirement from customers, Design, Engineering, Manufacturing, Erection and Commissioning & Life cycle support.

Our Flat Bottom Silos deliver versatility by involving simple assembly techniques resulting in minimal installation costs and highly efficient low cost storage. They offer a capacity range of 50-15,000 tonnes. For larger diameters, a galvanized reinforced roof structure is incorporated considering various loadings of overhead conveyor and wind. Also, internal reinforcement rings are installed to prevent deformation due to winds.

Benefits of Silo System

• Scientific method of storage i.e. bulk storage
• No wastage of gunny bags due to bulk grain storage
• Requires less space app (1/4) compared to godown storage of same capacity
• Mechanized handling with automation requires no manpower hence handling cost is less
• No spillage, no wastage due to rodents, insects, birds etc.
• Quality of the stored grain maintained by aeration system along with temperature monitoring device
• Compatible for fumigation - Optional

Features

• 8.8 quality dichromate bolts and nuts are used
• Neoprene washers to ensure waterproof seal
• All silo components are galvanized regardless of thickness that provide excellent anti-corrosion qualities
• Hot dip galvanized legs support structure with ring beam
• Capable of storing any flowable commodity such as grains, seeds, feed, plastic pellets and certain material supplements
• Galvanized cross section roof structure on models with a diameter higher than 12.22 meters
