Polem produces a special silo for de-icing salt storage in a variety of formats which is constructed for drive-under loading to enable direct winter maintenance.
The de-icing salt storage silo offers the road network managers, such as local authorities, plenty of benefits. These benefits include:
- Order more salt each time (price benefit);
- Salt can be stored for longer without it being in the way;
- No affect on the soil;
- Purchase salt at any point in time.
However the greatest benefit is, of course, that people can load the silo quickly whenever it is needed thanks to it being constructed for drive-under loading.
If winter maintenance is necessary, the silo can be quickly loaded onto vehicles without any shovel or manpower being required.
The result is adequate winter maintenance and therefore a safer situation on the roads.
