Uhingen, DE

General view of the silo plant in Uhingen Germany

The silo system in Uhingen consists of 2 round wooden silos on a cubic steel substructure and a brine system. The wooden silos each have a capacity of 250m3.

For optimum protection, the silo system was provided with an architecturally designed larch façade.

The brine generator is filled with de-icing salt directly from the silo using a discharge screw. The brine system consists of a Quanto salt dissolving system and a storage tank with a volume of 40m3.
