Effectively Clearing Silo Blockages with Drilling and Blasting

Production standstills, interrupted conveying processes, and increasing pressure on maintenance – a silo blockage can quickly lead to a serious bottleneck in industrial operations.
NT Service GmbH has been offering professional and proven solutions for over 15 years – efficient, safe, and with a clear focus on results and operational safety.

Organic and Inorganic Bulk Materials

Whether it’s cement, anhydrite, paraformaldehyde, or complex mixed products: bulk materials can behave extremely unpredictably under pressure, temperature, and humidity. This results in clumping, bridging, or core blockages that completely halt the material flow. While alternative methods like Cardox systems may seem like an option in theory, their limitations become clear when dealing with stubborn blockages and solidified constrictions. That’s why we specifically rely on mechanical drilling technology or – if necessary – precise blasting technology, while adhering to all ATEX and safety guidelines.

More Than Just Technology

Expertise and Access Competence. Our trained Rope Access Technicians (RATs) not only enable safe entry into silo systems under difficult conditions – they also bring the know-how and and experience to apply multi-stage procedures directly on-site. We combine:
  • Drilling technology with vibration support
  • Targeted explosive charges for localized opening
  • Clearing via compressed air or mechanical discharge
  • Visual inspection & documentation of the damaged area

Why NT Service GmbH?

  • Over 15 years of experience in solving industrial silo blockages
  • Rapid deployment readiness – even in emergencies and acute disruptions
  • Safety compliant – according to explosion protection, height work, and environmental guidelines
  • Proven references – from cement plants, power plants, chemical facilities, and the food industry

Do you have a blockage in your silo?

Don’t wait – take action. Contact us for expert advice, on-site assessment, and timely, sustainable removal of your silo blockage. Our past operations clearly show that efficiency, precision, and safety pay off – for smooth continued operation and long-term operational safety of your facility.

Blast cleaning for silo systems and bulk storage facilities
NT Service GmbH is revolutionising the removal of deposits in industrial plants with advanced blasting technology. Environmentally friendly technology with high efficiency and considerable savings potential for system operators NT Service GmbH is setting new standards in industrial deposit removal and environmental protection with its intelligent blasting technology. In contrast to conventional methods such as the Cardox system, which can generate CO₂ during cleaning and has a limited effect on hard deposits, NT Service’s intelligent blasting technology offers a more environmentally friendly and precise alternative that also reduces operating costs and increases plant safety. Cardox systems work with pressurised containers that release CO₂ to remove deposits - a process that can generate additional CO₂ emissions and therefore increase the environmental impact. In addition, the range of the Cardox system is limited as it relies solely on mechanical pressure to release blockages. In contrast, NT Service GmbH uses an innovative blast cleaning technology based on precisely calculated blasting processes that are customised to the requirements of the respective system. As a result, deposits

Discover the renaissance of blasting technology
Your solution for efficient bulk material loosening and fast bridge breaking Intelligent blasting technology has a long tradition in German industry, dating back to around 1980. After years of almost forgotten use, blasting technology for bulk material loosening is now making a comeback. Efficiency is the top priority for plant operators, as nobody can afford unwanted production downtimes these days. This is where blasting technology sets new standards and offers unbeatable advantages in terms of cost savings and time efficiency. Compared to conventional methods, blasting technology trumps with its superior performance. Where previously heavy equipment and increased personnel fatigue were required to remove build-up from silo systems and bulk storage facilities, blasting technology usually does this in a fraction of the time. Our aim is to offer you a quick solution to your problem with one of the most efficient processes in the bulk storage sector. The decision to use blasting technology lies in the hands of experienced blasting experts

Rope access process in animal feed pellet suction
This report presents the successful pellets suction operation for a sugar manufacturer using rope access and vacuum suction technology. As a leading company in the field of rope access technology, we have carried out a large-scale pellets suction operation for a major sugar manufacturer. The goal was to separate contaminated pellets from the good material. Our rope access specialists have safely accessed the pellet material using rope access techniques and gently suctioned the contaminated pellets with our Vactrailer. From a total material quantity of 30,000 tons, we were able to successfully remove approximately 120 tons of contaminated pellets. The advantage of our rope access method is that we can also work in difficult and hard-to-reach areas. The problematic mold growth in the sugar industry is a well-known problem. These harmful climatic conditions make the work of the operator extremely difficult. Mold is not only a health hazard but also a threat to the material. Therefore, the material must be suctioned above the mold layer to keep the damage as low as possible. To ensure that our employees
