Bunker Silo Shelter: Versatile storage solution for bulk goods
A bunker silo shelter is the ideal solution for bulk storage in trench silos. This sturdy and durable shelter mounted on concrete is installed directly onto concrete walls and protects your materials from weather conditions such as wind, rain, snow, and UV radiation. This ensures that your goods or machinery stay dry and maintain their quality, contributing to efficient storage and use.
A significant advantage of a bunker silo shelter is its easy and quick installation. Thanks to a robust frame and durable tarp construction, the shelter can be installed without extensive construction work. Moreover, the shelter can be easily dismantled or relocated, providing flexibility for changing storage needs. The spacious entrance makes it easy to access with loaders and other heavy equipment.
Applications of a bunker silo shelter
A bunker silo shelter is widely applicable and suitable for various sectors, including agriculture, industry, landscaping, earthworks, and waste and recycling companies. It provides an efficient and cost-effective solution for:
Bulk storage: Protection of materials such as sand, gravel, salt, and compost from weather conditions.
Dry storage: Keeping hay, straw, and other agricultural products dry.
Workshops: Creating a covered area for machinery and maintenance work.
Waste and recycling storage: Covering recycled materials to prevent contamination and dispersion.
Vehicle and equipment storage: Secure and dry storage for tractors, trucks, and machines.
The versatility of the shelter allows it to be used in various applications, from agricultural businesses to industrial sites and logistics hubs.
Dimensions and configurations of the bunker silo shelter
Our bunker silo shelters come in various sizes, with widths ranging from 4 to 15 meters and lengths from 6 to 12 meters. By connecting multiple shelters, you can easily create a larger covered storage area.
The height of the shelter is determined by the height of the concrete walls it is mounted on, ensuring enough space for vehicles and machinery, while your goods and materials remain optimally protected. There are many options like, gabels, walls and doors to create your perfect set-up.
Installation and setup of the bunker silo shelter
The installation of a bunker silo shelter is simple and can be carried out without specialized knowledge. The shelter is securely attached to the concrete walls with sturdy anchors, ensuring a stable and safe structure. A detailed installation manual is provided, and the use of a forklift for transportation and placement of materials is recommended.
Permit-free installation of a bunker silo shelter
In many cases, a bunker silo shelter can be installed without a permit, especially if it falls under agricultural or industrial building regulations. However, we always advise contacting your local municipality to verify the specific regulations in your area.
