A large industrial bulk silo for cement or powder at an industrial plant
Silos / Industrial Bulk

Large-scale bulk storage, from a single cement silo to a powder-handling array.

Steel silos for cement, powders, and food ingredients. Pneumatic-conveying compatible, dust-collector ready, radar level monitoring on every install. Sized between 10 and 1000 metric tonnes per silo.

10 to 1000 MTPneumatic-conveying compatible
01What it is

The structural-engineering end of silo work.

Industrial bulk silos are different from grain or feed because the material is heavier, the cycle is faster, and the discharge has to be reliable enough that a tanker truck below never waits. The hopper angle, the fluidising pad layout, and the dust-collector geometry all change with the material.

We design the structure to Eurocode 3, weld to AWS D1.1, and erect on-site for the larger units. Drawings and engineering calculations are supplied with every quote.

04Applications

What goes inside them.

Cement and lime

Bulk cement silos for ready-mix yards, block plants, and infrastructure projects. 60° hopper, fluidising pads, pneumatic fill.

Powder handling

Industrial powder ingredients (fly ash, gypsum, soda ash). Dust-collector mount standard on top.

Food ingredients

Bulk flour, sugar, starch storage for industrial bakeries and food processors. Galvanised, food-grade-compatible coatings on the bottom cone.
