Silo storage solutions

Efficient bean storage is about keeping your operation organised, consistent, and ready to grow. Whether you’re roasting 50 kg a day or several tonnes an hour, the way you store and move beans makes a difference in daily workflow, product quality, and long-term scalability.

We build silo systems that fit the way you work. All our silos are designed for coffee roasteries; with food-safe materials, clean design, and seamless integration into your production flow. We offer three main types: Specialty, Industrial, and Custom silos. Each one serves a different production scale but follows the same principle: make storage reliable, efficient, and easy to manage.


Specialty silos

For small to medium roasteries

The Specialty range is compact, modular, and easy to integrate into an existing setup. Ideal for roasteries that handle multiple origins and smaller batch sizes, these silos give you clear organisation and cleaner bean handling without taking up unnecessary space.

Industrial silos

For growing and mid-sized production

When you move from small batches to consistent, higher-volume roasting, your storage needs change. The Industrial range offers larger capacities and heavier-duty design while staying modular and easy to clean. These silos are built for roasteries that want professional-level workflow without jumping straight to full custom fabrication.

Our Custom Silos are designed from the ground up to match your space, volume, and workflow, from intake to packaging. We collaborate with you on every detail, from transport systems to integration with roasting and packaging lines.
