SILO’S & LAGOONS

Our silos/tanks are ideally suited for the storage of slurry and liquid manure. The main components of the silo’s and tanks are coated, galvanized steel panels, the bolts, washers and nuts, the non woven fleece for protection and the tankliner.

The silo’s/tanks of are available in various diameters and heights with a capacity up to 4,000,000 liters. Based on the tank diameter and height a calculation will be made to determine the thickness of the steel panels.

To reduce the weight of the steel panels to the minimum and to obtain the maximum strength, with a special engineered machine the flat galvanized and powder coated steel plates will be corrugated and equipped with the holes for mounting the bolts. For the guaranty and to create of the storage tank, a tankliner must be installed.

Manure and slurry storage silos/tanks are guaranteed:

Foil protection

A manure/slurry resistant foil, which is very strong and has high chemical resistance, must be used when constructing a manure/slurry storage basin/lagoon/reservoir or pond to prevent the contamination of groundwater.

The following qualities are used:

LINERS FOR SILO’S AND TANKS

We manufacture and install manure/slurry liners to be used in manure/slurry storage silo/tanks in various diameters and heights. The liner hangs over the edge of the tank. The liner is attached to the tank with the aid of ratchets or cord for tensioning.

In consultation the liners can be delivered in the following grades:

Our liners are supplied, in consultation, complete with wall protection, ratchets and cord.

COVERS

Floating covers

To cover the manure/slurry silo/tank, we also deliver floating covers. These covers are delivered, in consultation, with vents, HDPE tube, cord/rope for tensioning and mixing hatch. The materials used are, in consultation, unreinforced PVC 1 mm in black, unreinforced LDPE 0.80 or 1 mm thick in black or PVC reinforced polyester 850 g/m² either in green or grey colour.

Aircover

After a long period of extensive testing, we developed a new cover for tanks and silo’s. The aircover is extremely suitable as a top sealing of all type of tanks and silo’s made of steel, wood or concrete.

The aircover is made of very high quality polyester reinforced PVC fabrics. For the stability and the support is under the aircover a telescopic middle column installed. The correct shape and the stable construction is created by a fan that blows air continuous under the cover.

MANURE and WATER STORAGE BAGS

Flex bag

The manure bag is delivered in a square or rectangular shape, in consultation, with an inspection hatch. Furthermore, in consultation, pipes and seals are included. The material is especially designed for manure storage and consists of a polyester fabric with a PVC coating. Total weight approximately 1100 g/m². The seals are both thermally and high frequency welded.

The bags can be supplied with a capacity of 1000 m³. The whole can be assembled on site by us. To avoid being blown about by the wind, due to vacuum suction, the whole is tensioned and secured with straps and fastened with picket posts.
