Silo Bag proudly introduces a new system which stores the grains and forages in a safe, economical and profitable way.

Our bags are designed to achieve the optimal preservation of grains either at the harvest site or a dedicated storage site The bagging process is done by means of a high performance, low cost and easily transportable machine

Advantages of the Silo Bag System
• Eliminates costly on farm storage systems.
• Very low cost per ton of stored grain
• The on farm storage of your grains greatly expands the marketing opportunities of the commodity
• Grains can be stored at a higher moisture content than is allowed in traditional receival systems
• Store on farm with no wastage or slippage
• Very low cost per tone of stored grain
• Storage in a year of high/excess production is unlimited
• You only buy what storages you need
• The system is totally portable/relocatable
• Grains can be stored as to variety, grade, protein or for any other reason to segregate
• The segregated grains can be easily sampled by means of a conventional sampler
• Grain retains its quality and colour
• The bag is airtight, therefore chemicals are not normally required to control insects
• Perfect for organic commodities
• Freight costs reduced by negotiating freight rates out of peak harvest times
• Can eliminate costly harvester downtime
• Harvest times are greatly accelerated
• Very quick implementation of large tonnage sites
• Suitable for both extreme heat and extreme cold climates

Silobag

A Silobag is made of a three layer film (white-black) with UV protection

• 3 layers of coextruded polyethylene, 250 microns thick.
• 2 white layers to make the bag weather proof and act as a UV Filter
• 3rd layer is black and protects the grain from the sunlight

All bags manufactured from the latest generation raw material. NO RECYCLED materials are used in the formula to create weaknesses in the bags.
Bags are available in diameters of: 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10 and 12 feet.
Length of bags are: 60 metres, 75 metres and 100 metres.

Bags are suitable for storing many products:
• Dry Grains
• Humid/wet grains
• Forages

All grain bags come with unique bar codes. This bar code provides access via regular smart phone scanning to the Secure Commodities Virtual warehouse.

Grain Types

• Dry grains
• Wet grains
• Rolled/crushed grains
• Forages
• Fertilizer
• Dried fruits
• Wood chips and many other commodities

By using our state of the art machinery, grain is stored in an absolute anaerobic environment. Once the grain is put in the bag and the bag is sealed one must realize that grain is a living organism. The grain together with other living organisms like fungus, bacteria as well as insects which can go into the bag during harvest, inhibits their own respiratory process where oxygen is consumed, producing an atmosphere rich in carbon dioxide. This process assures optimum conservation of your grain over time. This atmosphere keeps stable, preventing not only the reproduction of fungus and insects, but also the increase of the grain’s temperature.
Because the Silobag is air-tight, creating a hermetic storage, chemicals are not normally needed to control insects.

Grain Bagger

The bags are filled by way of a high capacity, low cost ‘bagger”
The baggers have the ability to fill the bags at +/- 400 mt tones per hour
The tunnel of the baggers are designed to be over centre, which has the effect of the commodities pushing the bagger forward automatically as the bags are filled. To correct this process, the baggers are fitted with an effective braking system that controls the rate of forward movement, and in turn, the amount of bag stretching and effective removal of excess air from the bag.
Silo Bags offers a selection of baggers to suit all applications, from dry baggers, wet grain baggers, forage baggers, tractor driven baggers, self propelled baggers (tractor less) and auger less baggers for delicate commodities, in sizes from 6 foot to 12 foot diameter. A bagger for every situation and commodity

Grain Extractor

specially designed extractor is used to take out the grain from the bags easily and efficiently. It cut opens or rolls the bag and lifts the grain to a grain cart or truck at a rate of 200 MT per hour.
The main features of these extractors are they work on all types of grain with 360 degree high capacity unloading auger. These extractors are very easy to transport between locations.

Silo Seala

BAG SEALING
Silo Seala
• Works off vehicle battery in the field
• Creates the perfect Hermetic seal
• Saves having to fit "difficult" plastic sealing kits
• Is much stronger than standard seals; particularly useful when out loading the bags

Simply hook your SILO SEALA up to a 12v battery (use your vehicle or any other machinery/battery that is close by), clamp it onto the open end of your Silobag and adjust the heat setting. Press the red button and wait! You don’t even have to hold it, once in place just wait until the alarm stops, indicating it’s done. Unclamp, move along to the next section and seal again. Repeat until you’ve reached the end of the bag...
