A silo transport refers to the transportation of bulk materials, especially those that are dusty or free-flowing, using specialized vehicles known as silo vehicles or silo trailers. A silo vehicle typically consists of a closed container known as a silo. This silo can come in various sizes and shapes and is designed to protect the bulk material from external influences such as moisture, pollution and contamination during transport. This kind of transport is requested by various industries, including agriculture, construction, food, chemicals and many others. It enables the efficient transport of large quantities of bulk materials by road or rail.
Dusty and free-flowing bulk materials such as building materials, plastic granules, waste products, hazardous materials (ADR), agricultural products (GMP+), animal by-products, industrial minerals, wood pellets and similar bulk materials are suitable for silo truck transports.
Yes, interim storage is possible after the silo transportation has been completed. After the bulk material has been safely transported to its destination, it can be temporarily stored in facilities such as silos, warehouses or other suitable storage facilities.
