A feed bin silo is an ideal solution for farmers who are looking for a reliable and efficient way to store and dispense feed for their livestock. These silos are specifically designed to meet the needs of farmers and provide a variety of benefits that make them an attractive option.
One of the main advantages of a feed bin silo is their durability. The silos are made of glass reinforced plastic (GRP) or fibreglass material, which is non-corrosive and resistant to the elements, ensuring a long lifespan. Unlike steel silos, the fibreglass silos do not rust, which further extends their lifetime and reducing the need for costly repairs.
The inner surface of the GRP silos are smooth which is beneficial for feed flow, less wastage and thus savings on feed cost. Another benefit is that they are designed to have no seams, rivets or bolts, which reduces the potential for interior condensation. This results in improved flow characteristics and less time wasted on maintenance.
Another advantage of feed bin silos is their ease of use. The silos can be easily loaded with feed and dispensed with the use of automated systems, which greatly reduces the time and effort required to care for livestock. Automated systems also improve safety and reduce the potential for accidents.
