By contracting Rowlands Woodhouse to produce silos for your business, you can take advantage of bespoke service, turnkey management, years of expertise and dedication to cost-effectiveness and quality.

For a range of industries, we will listen to your brief then design, manufacture and install the following:

  • Smooth walled round silos – fully welded or bolted assembly
  • Square, rectangular and round bins – assembled at our factory or site
  • Twin skin panel section bins – forming ‘nests’ of bins for storage, blending or out-loading. The panels can be insulted if required.

Our designed and manufactured silos primarily serve the bulk storage and handling industry, such as food mills, breweries, coal stores and power stations. Stainless steel, mild steel or aluminium fabrication, welding and bolting assembly, enamel and epoxy coating finishes are all carried out at our in-house manufacturing facility.

After your silo has been constructed in-line with your specifications, it can be cleaned, installed or relocated to any site. To find out more about this service, or to discuss your silo requirements with a technical expert call 01692 405129 or email info@rowood.co.uk.

If you require standard or bespoke bin sizes, we can deliver. Every storage bin is manufactured at our specialist in-house facility, using bin support steel and penthouse steel.
Choose between: –

  • Single skin panels – smooth walled or corrugated, with bin tops in steel – cones of any shape and method of discharge.
  • Twin skin panels – complete with heavy corner posts and internal chamfered corners.
  • Bin tops are manufactured in steel – cones of any shape and method of discharge.

Your bin’s method of discharge can either be:
a) Gravity through outlet slides bolted to the underside of each cone.
b) Mechanical discharge via auger, scraper chain conveyor, vibratory discharger, pneumatic conveying.

As well as bulk handling equipment, our fully qualified and skilled engineers can design, manufacture and install bespoke mechanical storage and handling equipment. These include:

  • Special structural steel – buildings, to house bins and machinery at varying floor levels
  • Weighers – suspended or sitting on load cells for blending applications
  • Stainless steel special conveyors – for the human food industry

In our custom-made mechanical design office, our experienced staff are all conversant with various CAD systems and 3D steelwork programmes. Project concept, design, detail and CAD-CAM drawings are produced for manufacture of components within the on-site factory.

In terms of mechanical storage system installation, Rowlands Woodhouse has always had a specialist teams. Our installations offer you peace of mind that when a contract is issued, the complete project will be handled by the ‘main contractor’, and all the disciplines are monitored and linked by one company.

Electrical Control Panel Design and Installation 

After listening carefully to the electrical control needs of your business; our design engineers will issue the construction and testing specifications to your in-house manufacturing facility.
The panels maybe used for individual machines or if required, fully sequenced PLC controlled to operate a complete system or mill facility. The panels are built and tested in an independent building to ensure the manufacturing stage takes place in a clean environment and that high quality is maintained.

When your control panel is installed, you can rest assured that the complete project will be handled by one ‘main contractor’ who has full control of every aspect of the process.
