2. BOLTED TYPE CEMENT SILOS, For the overseas market, you have to consider the cost for sea freight. If you still put the welded type cement silo in the container, the sea freight will be much higher than a cement silo itself. It is possible to produce cement silos up to 100 tons capacity as both welded and bolted. Cement silos whose capacity is more than 100 tons are manufactured as bolted type most of the time. To manufacture the silos as bolted type brings advantage of space saving during transportation. The clients can save the cost for sea freight. Bolted silos are the best choice for long distance transportation as 2 units of 100 tons cement silos with dust filters and other equipment can be fit in one 40FT container. While offering great transportation advantages bolted silos require more time for installation.
