Top Secret Silo
In late 2003 EB were approached by a house hold name in food products to produce a unique storge and conveying system for a secret reaserch project. The system comprised a food grade G.R.P silo constructed using food complient vinylester resin, followed by an 8 hour post cure at 80’C, which was a challenge given the vessels 3m diameter and 10m height. The silo also had special inlets and supports to accomodate a bucket elevator and control systems, used to fill the silo from a road tanker. EB also developed and supplied a 100mm diameter centreless conveyor to transport the stored product for further processing 14m above the vessel.
