  • Twin bays for interior washing of silo trailers
  • Twin fall-arrest lines and twin pressure-washer systems
  • Treatment and disposal of waste water
  • Hot-air drying and certified weighbridge

Why it matters

A clean, dry silo prevents residues from the previous load contaminating the next one. That is why after every trip we clean silo, hoses, bends and fittings and issue a cleaning and fitness-to-load certificate.
