Humidity control and drying for grain and crop storage

The industrial desiccant dehumidifiers and dryers we supply work by drawing damp air through a slowly rotating silica gel rotor. These absorptive materials attract moisture from the air, delivering efficient drying inside silos and storage containers of any type or size.

Alternatively, our condensation units draw damp air inside your silos and containers across a refrigerated surface. This condenses the air inside our units, capturing the water vapour before exhausting dry air back into the environment.

To maintain the optimum climate in your agricultural grain silos and crop storage containers, we recommend using capable dehumidifiers or industrial dryers.

We also advise using humidity measuring devices and moisture meters to accurately track the conditions inside your storage containers.

Talk to our experts to discuss your farm’s exact storage requirements, and we can ensure you are supplied with the ideal solution.

When moisture infiltrates your grain stores or crop containers:

• Crops can rot and spoil

• Mould and fungi can grow

• Grains can clump together and cake

• Insects can be attracted inside 

Dehumidifiers are often placed outside of agricultural storage structures and ducted in. This leaves plenty of room for crops, while also preventing condensation, mould growth and corrosion long term.

Yes, dehumidifiers prevent mould growth by maintaining dry air flow inside your storage containers and silos. This makes it impossible for mould and mildew to grow and infiltrate your grains or crops.

After a silo or storage container is cleaned, the leftover moisture must be dealt with to prevent it infiltrating your produce or damaging the structural integrity of your containers. The time it takes for a dehumidifier to do this will depend on a variety of factors, such as:

• The size of a silo or container

• The humidity levels inside your structures

• The drying capacity of your chosen dehumidifier(s)

• The outside climate

Yes, our range of high-performance dehumidification systems are some of the most efficient solutions on the market.

Combining decades of expertise, high-quality components, and a steadfast commitment to European engineering, the solutions we supply enable farms to maintain the ideal humidity conditions inside their storage containers and silos in the most cost-effective way possible.

The maintenance requirements of your dehumidifiers can change, depending on how often your systems are used, the amount of water vapour your systems handle, and the climate they operate in. As such, we recommend following the service recommendations referenced in your units’ instruction manuals.

Yes. By physically capturing excess moisture inside your silos and storage containers, you can prevent condensation from forming and corrosion occurring in the long term.

We don’t make our commercial dehumidifiers available to purchase online to ensure that every system we design, manufacture and supply fits your exact requirements. By taking a consultative approach with a highly-trained expert, we make sure that you are only recommended equipment that meets your needs – and fulfils these in the most efficient, cost-effective way possible.
