Project Challenges
Daily processing of 1,800 t across four flour lines plus a noodle line
Continuous operation leaves no room for a supply gap. Harvest arrives in a short window, so the silos must absorb concentrated intake and then feed the lines steadily — matching both “concentrated receiving” and “continuous processing.”
Egypt’s hot, dry climate demands moisture-proof and insect-proof storage
High summer temperatures, sharp day–night swings and dust-laden winds in some areas create moisture absorption, condensation and pest risks. Sealing and in-silo temperature control must suit these local conditions.
Six 15,000 t silos: large capacity, but sealing reliability and monitoring matter
Large single silos cut unit cost and simplify management, but any single-silo failure has wide impact. Sealing reliability, in-silo temperature and humidity monitoring, and digital management must be robust.
Linking four production lines and import/export trade
The silos connect upstream to raw material receiving and import/export trade, and downstream to four flour lines and the noodle line. Conveying and scheduling must match the group’s digital management system and shipping rhythm — no gap between storage and production.
03 / Solution
Solution: 15,000T × 6 Wheat Silos + Intelligent Monitoring
15,000T × 6 groups: large single silos, moderate fleet size
Large-capacity single-silo design, with six groups delivering 90,000 t of storage. Fewer, larger silos balance bulk storage efficiency with clear, manageable fleet control, reducing conveyor nodes and daily management complexity.
Sealed silos + moisture-proof and insect-proof design
Sealed structure with moisture-control equipment blocks humidity, dust and insects — cutting storage losses in Egypt’s hot, dry, dusty climate.
Intelligent monitoring + digital warehouse management
In-silo sensors track temperature, humidity and grain condition in real time, raising alarms when needed and feeding data to the group’s digital warehouse management system for centralized level, temperature, in/out records and alarm management.

Level and storage-status monitoring to support warehouse scheduling and import/export shipping plans -
Integration with the digital warehouse management system for centralized silo-fleet monitoring
04 / Highlights
Technical Highlights: Why 15,000T × 6 Groups + Intelligent Monitoring
15,000 t silos: lower unit cost, easier centralized management
At 15,000 t per silo, this is a 15,000-tonne-class configuration for large-scale grain storage; six groups deliver 90,000 t. Compared with many smaller distributed bins, it reduces the number of silos and conveyor nodes, cutting unit storage cost and daily management complexity.
Sealed, moisture-proof and insect-proof: built for Egypt’s climate
Sealed silo bodies with moisture-control equipment address moisture absorption, condensation and pest risks under high temperatures, sharp temperature swings and dust-laden winds — a level of protection open or semi-sealed storage cannot provide.
Intelligent monitoring + digital warehouse management
In-silo sensors collect temperature, humidity and grain condition data in real time and feed the digital warehouse management system for centralized fleet monitoring, alarm handling and in/out record management — reducing manual inspection and improving scheduling efficiency.
05 / Results
Project Results
-
✓
Created 90,000 t of wheat storage capacity (this project), supporting 1,800 t/day processing across four flour lines. -
✓
The 15,000T × 6 configuration lowers unit storage cost, and the moderate number of silos makes centralized management practical. -
✓
Sealed silos with moisture-proof, insect-proof design and intelligent monitoring suit Egypt’s hot, dry climate, reducing moisture absorption, condensation, heating and pest risks. -
✓
The digital warehouse management system enables centralized silo-fleet monitoring and in/out record management, reducing manual inspection and improving scheduling efficiency. -
✓
The storage system is integrated with four flour lines, the noodle line and import/export operations, supporting the group’s annual processing scale of over 100,000 t.
06 / Testimonial
Client Feedback
“With six 15,000 t silos, sealed moisture-proof storage and intelligent monitoring, we can store wheat safely even in hot, dry conditions. Harvest intake is fast, the four lines are fed steadily in production season, and the digital system makes fleet management far clearer than before. Since commissioning, storage losses and pest problems have dropped noticeably, and warehouse scheduling and line feeding have run smoothly.”
