With corn storage, consistency matters
Protect your corn storage by selecting a dome. Rely on our team to construct an airtight structure that wards off water, insects, and rodents and controls temperature and air conditions inside.
Superior moisture protection: The custom PVC airform covering the dome prevents exposure to moisture. The dome’s insulated nature also prevents heating and cooling of the walls and air inside, thus preventing condensation on the walls and protecting the integrity of the product.
Temperature control: The combination of waterproof membrane, reinforced concrete shell, and continuous layer of polyurethane foam prevents extreme temperature fluctuation.
Aeration system: Domes for grain are constructed with aeration systems used to control temperature and moisture in long-term corn storage.
Food-safe features: Talk to our team about your requirements for cleanliness. From stainless-steel equipment to food-grade paint, we help our customers handle and process agricultural product using the most sterile means possible.

But for facilities near water and with soggy soils, the pit’s excavating, dewatering, and waterproofing costs alone can be prohibitive. The good news is that there are […]
