To make the process of salt storage and loading of spreading vehicles as efficient and fast as possible, Agrotecnica has been successfully building salt silos for over 40 years. Each silo incorporates customized loading and unloading techniques for each client. Most of these facilities are still operational today.
Salt Silos
Silos for Road Maintenance Services
Snow and ice, particularly in alpine regions, pose a significant challenge for road maintenance services. This challenge can be effectively addressed through the quick provision and distribution of salt on road surfaces.
Silos for Solid or Liquid Salt
De-icing salt can be stored in two main forms: as granules (solid salt) or as brine (a liquid solution of salt in water). The choice depends on the final use of the salt.
Recently, during preventive or de-icing treatments for road surfaces, solid granular salt is increasingly being combined with brine, which adheres to the surface and amplifies the effect.
Brine Production
When salt needs to be used in liquid form, it is converted into brine. Agrotecnica provides the option of a fully automated system designed for this purpose. This automated system ensures the desired mixing ratio between salt and water, guaranteeing a high-quality saline solution at the required concentration.
