Perry of Oakley: New silo range launched

Perry of Oakley has announced the introduction of a brand new range of flat- and hopper-bottom silos engineered in conjunction with SiloMaster, a newly formed company that boasts a team of engineers with more than 50 years of experience in the design and manufacture of silos and bulk storage solutions.

In keeping with Perry’s motto of “Engineering Excellence”, the new silo range is designed using high-grade S450 steel protected by galvanising to Z600 standard, giving superior strength to weight characteristics and extremely long service life. A unique new single piece roof design is used on silos up to 16m diameter, simplifying installation and enhancing performance.

Supporting the technical know-how of the new team is one of Spain’s leading industrial manufacturing groups, which brings high-quality manufacturing expertise. The new silos are being manufactured on new state-of-the-art equipment in a plant that operates to the highest quality and compliance standards insisted on by the automotive, oil and gas and rail industries, among others.

“We strive for the highest quality in all aspects,” the managing director of Perry of Oakley, David Perry, said. “This starts with assessment of a customer’s needs and carries through to designing a scheme, manufacturing the silos, packing, shipping and final installation along with after sales support.”

Available exclusively from Perry of Oakley in the UK and Ireland, the new Perry SiloMaster range will begin production in September this year for immediate delivery thereafter.

“It’s a great honour to work with Perry’s,” SiloMaster’s head of global sales, Antonio Benitez, said. “We’re very excited about developing markets together and being able to offer a full range of handling, drying and storage solutions that are available from Perry’s and SiloMaster.”

The newly designed range of silos boast metric silos up to 32m diameter with a capacity of approximately 20,000t, 45-degree hopper bottom silos up to 13m diameter containing almost 3,000 tonnes, and 60-degree hopper bottom silos up 11m diameter holding 1,900t. The SiloMaster range can be specified to either EUROCODE or ANSI standards dependant on market needs, and significantly can be made in a wide range of diameters both metric and imperial thus allowing an existing base to be reused in the event of replacing an end of life silo.

In addition to the silo range, a full complement of associated equipment will be available.

With the addition of the SiloMaster range, Perry of Oakley is able to offer a complete solution for the storage, handling and drying of a wide range of products in agricultural and industrial applications through a network of dealers and installers.
