PERMASTORE® silos can take advantage of it's exceptional epoxy coating or the inert and exceptional abrasion resistance properties of Permastore’s FUSION® GFtS coatings presenting a hygienic, low friction surface for stored product.

The designs of the silos are tailored to suit specific material properties and allow for a range of loading (filling) and unloading (discharge) systems.

They also can incorporate roofs, cones and connections for pipework and sensors.

Some of the bulk storage applications include:

Food Production
Carbon Black
Limestone
Plastics
Soya Meal

Coal

Agricultural Silos

With a product history that dates back to 1948, PERMASTORE® GFtS silos provide a proven system to store livestock feed such as haylage, maize and high moisture grains in a technically efficient, waste-free way. The secure sealed system of storage with capacities from 250 to 1400 metric tonnes (275 to 1540 US tons) gives significant benefits to livestock producers including:

Maximised nutrient value of the feed with lower moisture loss
Natural conservation without use of chemicals
Natural suppression of diseases and weeds by the dark, oxygen limiting environment
Harvesting flexibility and buffer storage for existing grain storage systems
Permits earlier harvesting to eliminate drying costs
Traceability of inputs for accreditation schemes

High quality feed grain
No drying costs
Greater palatability for livestock
High digestibility for livestock
Exclusion of vermin and birds
Suitability for organically grown produce
High animal growth rates and feed conversion efficiency
