Fabric Silos are commonly used for the storage of a range of products such as flour and grains. They are manufactured in the measurements requested and adapt to fit the metal structure in which they are generally installed. The most commonly-used material for manufacturing fabric silos is polyester. It is made with the eyelets necessary to secure it to the structure, as well as inspection windows and any other special features.
