The benefits of composite silos and tanks in the food industry
For various industries, such as the food industry, the agricultural sector, and the chemical industry, silos and tanks are essential components. With advancements in technologies, composite silos and tanks have emerged as a viable option. Food safety
Composite silos and tanks offer a high level of food safety. They are made of materials that do not corrode, oxidize, or react with food, thus preserving the integrity and quality of the stored food.
Hygiene
Silo’s and tanks made of composite are easy to clean and maintain. The smooth surface minimizes the retention of food residues, bacteria, and molds, thereby reducing the risk of contamination significantly. The hygienic design and smooth interior wall ensure the important principle of first-in-first-out in silos.
Insulation properties
Composite silos and tanks offer superior insulation properties compared to metal silos and tanks. Composite naturally has low thermal conductivity, ensuring that the contents are protected against temperature variations. This allows for excellent control over the temperature of the stored product.
This is particularly important for preserving freshness, flow properties, and the overall quality of the products.
