Storage

Bulk storage for grain, ingredients, and industrial materials


Effective bulk storage simplifies day-to-day operations, improves housekeeping, and supports smarter purchasing decisions. From malt, grain, coffee, pet food, livestock feed, and food ingredients to plastics, wood products, sand, recycling materials, tobacco, and other bulk solids, the right storage system helps keep material protected, organized, and ready for use.

Bulk Silos and Bins

Bulk Silos and Bins

Bulk malt storage silos installed at a production brewery

Bulk silos and bins are a practical storage solution for breweries, distilleries, food processors, pet food facilities, coffee roasters, agricultural operations, livestock feed producers, plastics processors, recycling facilities, wood product manufacturers, railroads, golf courses, and other bulk solids applications.

Whether storing malt, grain, ingredients, pellets, powders, sand, or other dry materials, a properly designed silo protects product from weather and contamination while reducing floor space, manual handling, and day-to-day workflow issues.

We offer a wide range of bin and silo options to suit different layouts, capacities, materials, and climates. Available construction options include welded and epoxy-coated steel, stainless steel, fiberglass, and corrugated bolt-together steel. Systems are sized and built for long service life in demanding environments.

Grist Cases

Grist Cases

Custom grist case for malt handling and batching

Malt Handling designs and fabricates custom grist cases for breweries, distilleries, malt houses, and grain processing applications. Cases are available in stainless steel, painted carbon steel, or polymer construction and can be ground mounted or suspended above a mash or lauter vessel, depending on space and process requirements.

Cases can be equipped with load cells for weighing and batching and integrated with upstream milling and downstream conveying equipment to support consistent, repeatable material delivery.

Bulk Bag Stands

Bulk bag unloading stands for grain and specialty ingredients

Bulk bag stands are a practical option for breweries, distilleries, food and ingredient processors, pet food, coffee, agriculture, livestock feed, plastics, recycling, wood products, and other facilities handling dry bulk materials that do not justify dedicated silo storage.

We provide customized unloading stations for bulk bags up to 2,500 lbs. Units are available in powder-coated carbon steel and can be configured with agitation, hoists, low-headroom designs, and a variety of discharge transitions to suit your layout.

Buckhorn CenterFlow Container

Buckhorn CenterFlow Container

Buckhorn CenterFlow container for reusable bulk material handling

The reusable CenterFlow™ Container from Buckhorn is designed to transport, store, and dispense seed, granular, pelletized, and other flowable dry materials. Its smooth, funnel-shaped interior supports reliable flow and efficient emptying for agricultural, food, ingredient, plastics, and general bulk solids applications.

CenterFlow Container Rack

CenterFlow container rack for dispensing into conveying systems

The CenterFlow Container Rack allows portable containers to be handled in a similar way to bulk bags. Containers can be swapped on a single rack or staged in series to dispense ingredients, seed, pellets, granules, or other dry bulk materials into chain disk conveyors or flex augers.

Racks can be equipped with load cells or paired with other weighing options to support batching and integrate mid-size, unbagged loads into your process.

Bag Dump Stations

Bag Dump Stations

Bag dump station hopper for specialty and small batch additions

Available in 5 or 20 cubic foot capacities, bag dump hoppers can be connected to conveying systems to integrate specialty ingredients, minor additions, powders, granules, pellets, and other bagged materials into a larger process. Units are welded and powder coated, with custom sizes, stainless steel construction, and table connections available upon request.

Spent Grain Silos

Spent Grain Silos and Bins

Spent grain storage bin with drive-thru support structure

Elevated spent grain bins with drive-thru support structures simplify disposal by allowing material to be offloaded directly into trailers. Dedicated spent material storage can also help reduce odor issues, improve housekeeping, and simplify removal from the production area.

Spent grain and wet material bins can be configured with discharge pumps for ground mounting or knife gates for gravity discharge or connection to discharge augers. Stainless or mild steel welded construction is available, along with heating and insulation options for cold-weather climates.
