THE IMPORTANCE OF SILO CLEANING

Ensuring that your silo is maintained to a sufficient standard is absolutely pivotal, especially if your business is situated within the food and drinks manufacturing and processing sector. Silo’s are key in storing bulk supplies such as grain, flour, oil and salt, materials that can easily cause blockages or cling together.

In addition to this, your silo has more chance of becoming a breeding ground for SPI’s (Stored Product Insects) if it is not regularly cleaned. This issue can substantially reduce the quality of the product and cause food contamination issues

If silo hygiene is not maintained, cross contamination is highly likely meaning the end consumer is at risk. If this situation unfolds within your company, you are then at risk of incurring a series potentially catastrophic implications such as fines, temporary closures and more.
