Wheat & Grain Silos

Safely use phosphine in your silo with rubber seals, breather valves and our newly designed fumigation system that keep the gas at high concentration levels over the period of time required to get the best insect kill rate. We do not use inferior foam seals. Ask our team about our Gas-tight brochure for more information.

An Australian-standard ladder and cage designed to fit any GE silo. Improve safety and ease of access to your silo with a new ladder on your old silo. Features an easy no-weld onsite assembly. Made from top-grade Aussie steel with a simple and solid design for maximum longevity.

Included as standard on all our pellet & feed silos, blower pipes allow the silo to be filled by a blower truck. A steel pipe runs from the top of your silo down the wall with a connector at the bottom. The blower pipe can be positioned anywhere on the silo and bends are made from heavy-duty, 4.5mm thick 100nb pipe for a longer life.

Bag chutes can be used for sampling and emptying the silo into auger boots, wheelbarrows, and bins. The 125mm square chute has a handle and butterfly flap. Bag chutes are included as standard on pellet & feed silos, and typically positioned to the side of the main outlet, though they can be placed at any height and position you want. Gas tight version available.

Cool grain, reduce moisture and protect from insects with CustomVac automatic controllers, drying fans, and gas tight covers. Ask our team about the range of CustomVac aeration options available for your silo.

Cool grain, reduce moisture and protect from insects with Ziehl-Abegg's trusted heavy-duty automatic controllers, drying fans, and gas tight covers. Ask our team about the range of Ziehl-Abegg aeration options to suit your needs.

A standard feature on our fertiliser silos, we use a two-part epoxy paint (Epinamel DTM985) to coat the inside of base of the silo, preventing the harsh compounds in fertiliser from eating into the Zincalume coating. When paired with our pre-painted food-grade coating on the upper walls, this combination provides an excellent level of protection for common fertiliser applications.

Load cells give an incredibly accurate digital readout of weight of the product in the silo, which is useful when filling trucks or monitoring silo capacity by weight. We can fit load cells to your silo at the factory or we can design the footplates on your new silo to match your existing load cells.

A metric level sensor gives you instant access to feed levels at any time of day and can prevent feed runout or over-ordering. Laser technology continuously measures the level of solid material in the silo and sends notifications to any phone or computer when a pre-set material level is reached.

Each type of silo has a standard cone angle which is optimised for the intended storage use-case, based on usage and typical conditions. But we can customise the angle of the cone to suit your needs. A steeper cone angle might improve product flow, or a shallower angle might help you to adhere to height restrictions. We can also build offset cone angles (where the outlet is off-centre).

Our pellet silos come as standard with a 320mm x 290mm slide outlet at the base of the cone. The outlet size can be adjusted to meet your specific requirements. Custom outlet sizes are often requested when connecting the outlet to a feed system.

Sight glasses give you an instant visual indicator of product levels without needing to open the silo or use electronic sensors. We include one sight glass per 1200mm wall sheet as standard, but we can include additional 100mm diameter clear perspex sight glasses as needed, including in the base.

This unique offset cone and bag chute outlet allows easy access for emptying into bags or wheelbarrows. This cone and outlet configuration is only compatible with our smaller 7, 12, 16, and 21 tonne silos.

We can fit an industrial ventilator to the lid of your silo to allow continual ventilation. We recommend installing industrial ventilators when there is a history of moisture problems in the silo caused by moist or hot feed. Not compatible with gas-tight sealing.

We can make custom silos in many shapes and sizes depending on your needs. GE Silos started out making entirely custom silos and to this day we have retained the skills to design and innovate to meet our customers needs. Custom shaped silos are usually made to fit into tight or odd-sized spaces.

An actuated outlet and inlet can make automation easier. This outlet is designed to be used with a pneumatic or 12v actuator for remote operation.

GE Silos come in a smart white finish as standard, but we can also supply your silo pre-painted in a colour of your choice. We are most often asked to paint silos for aesthetic reasons: to blend in with the environment or buildings around it.

If you have a specific silo setup in mind, we can probably make a custom frame to suit. We often make custom frames to allow for better access to outlets, fitting the new silo onto an existing slab, fitting the silo into a tight space, or any number of other site-specific reasons.

We can extend or lower the legs on your silo to achieve a particular outlet height. A custom outlet height might enable better access underneath the silo, or provide more clearance for your bins, carts and loaders.

A modular designed walkway to go over multiple silos from one of our AS Ladders, this allows you to inspect all aspects of the silo setup from above. The walkway meets AS1657 Standards and easily fits to all of our silos.

Steel Supports for our overhead walkways are also compatible to support conveyer set ups for filling.
