With a flat-bottom design, complete discharge depends on a sweep auger, a mechanical system that moves through the grain to clear the floor. It adds cost, maintenance exposure, and complexity to an operation that could be simpler. With a hopper bottom, gravity does the work. Grain discharges completely through the base, without mechanical intervention. No […]

A silo designed in Zaragoza ends up in Bangladesh, in Australia, and in Saudi Arabia. The climate changes. The commodity changes. The regulatory environment changes. The operator standing at the mechanization outlet every morning has needs that stay remarkably consistent. They want a discharge that works completely. Access that doesn’t require acrobatics. A ventilation system

Four hopper bottom silos. 3.000 tM capacity each. 13.8 metres in diameter. 12.000 tM total. The largest hopper-bottom silo installation ever built. Numbers like these don’t happen by accident. They are the result of a manufacturing process that scales without shortcuts: steel panels fabricated to specification, structural loads calculated for real operating conditions, and a

A grain storage plant is only as reliable as the infrastructure around it. In Pazardzhik, Bulgaria, our client ISAV needed more than silos. They needed a dependable water storage solution: purpose-built, ready to perform, and consistent with the structural quality of the rest of their agricultural facility. We supplied a 100 m³ DPT Water Tank:

A farm doesn’t run on grain storage alone. When operators come to us with complex sites, where they need to store grain and manage water supply, they often expect to coordinate two separate suppliers, two separate projects, two separate headaches. We think that’s an unnecessary complication. @[SIMEZA Silos](urn:li:organization:11009882)’s steel technology applies to more than silos.

There is a question we get regularly from clients in West Africa, Southeast Asia, and Latin America: “How long does it take to get the silo here?” A SIMEZA hopper silo with a 5,000-tonne capacity does not leave our Utebo facility as a single structure. It leaves as a precisely sequenced set of corrugated steel

Every year, the world loses enough grain to feed 1 billion people.Not in the field. After the harvest. Post-harvest losses are one of the most underreported challenges in global food security, and the figures vary sharply by region: 📍 Sub-Saharan Africa: losses range from 20% to 40% of total grain production, driven by inadequate storage

Grain doesn’t disappear all at once. It disappears quietly: in the humidity that builds overnight, in the pests that enter through a poorly sealed joint, in the grain left behind at the bottom of a flat-floor silo after every discharge cycle. After 50 years of designing and installing grain storage systems across five continents, we’ve

Safety at the top of a silo starts with the right equipment. At SIMEZA Silos, we make sure our access systems meet strict European safety standards. When operators need to check the roof or conveyor bridges, they need a safe way up. We build our spiral stairs, vertical ladders, and catwalks to provide secure access.
