Silo Bags

Silo Bags introduce new system which stores the grains and forages in a safe, economical and profitable way.
Our bags are designed to achieve the optimal preservation of grains either at the harvest site or a dedicated storage site.
The bagging process is done by means of a high performance, low cost and easily transportable machine.

IMPEL Silo Bags are made of a seven-layers of Blown extruded technology with various polymers to achieve the best quality Silo Bags (Polyethylene) about 125-500 microns, with anti-slip and antistatic properties. We can also produce flame retardant silo bags.
The outer layer is white with UV protective coating while the inner layer in contact with the grain is black.
The diameter of 5-18 feet and to any length of 200 meters and above. Customisation is our speciality. Every Bag is folded with an automatic folding machine.

Applications

  • Ideal for storing all kinds of grains, dried fruits, fertilizers, fodder, and other stuff.
  • Sealed immediately after filling up, trapping the oxygen that’s used up by the grains and produces carbon dioxide. The anaerobic condition prevents the formation of fungus or insects in the bags.
  • Special machines are used to load and unload grains and other products from these bags.

Advantages

  • Retains original quality and quantity of the products
  • Ideal for long term storage
  • Perfect sealing and anaerobic conditions expel insects and fungus growth within the bag.
  • Protects the goods from adverse climatic conditions during transit.
  • Lower investment costs and Annual costs
