The silobag technique is a bagging system for preserving silage and dry grains manufactured by Plastar San Luis S.A. using the three-layer coextrusion system. It is based on the principle that as dry grains enter the silobag, as much air as possible is expelled, creating over time a stable environment low in oxygen and rich in carbon dioxide. This helps prevent the spread of insects and microorganisms inside the silobag.
Silobolsa Plastar it’s a silage bag (or silobag) that optimizes harvests, specially manufactured for the storage of dry grains and forage, with a large storage capacity to reduce operating costs.

Benefits
Optimizes your harvest
Optimizes your harvest, reducing losses in yield and grain quality due to transportation delays or weather conditions.
Savings on transportation costs
Savings on transportation costs by allowing the transportation of the harvest off-season, enabling more efficient sales management and budget improvement for the company.
Increases the storage capacity

APPLICATION AND CROPS
During the harvest season, the grain goes directly from the hopper to the silo. It allows for some insect control without the use of insecticides. It is used for the storage of grains such as corn, soybeans, wheat, sunflower, rice, sorghum, alfalfa, barley, rye, oats, rapeseed, flax, peas, chickpeas, and millet, among others, as well as food by-products like malt and inputs such as fertilizers.
