Silo technology for bulk materials
Silo systems for storage and controlled discharge – engineered for material characteristics, storage capacity and downstream processes
Solutions for storage, discharge and dosing
Integrated systems for reliable material storage and controlled feeding to downstream processes
Silo technology for reliable material flow
Silos perform more than a storage function in bulk material handling. Variations in bulk density, moisture content, abrasiveness and the tendency to adhere or compact can affect filling, storage and discharge. To ensure that material is available as required for downstream processes, the silo and discharge system need to be designed as an integrated system.
Our silo technology ranges from individual silos to complete storage systems. Silo design, storage capacity and discharge concept are engineered according to the bulk material, required filling and discharge capacities, and operating conditions. The required conveying and dosing equipment can also be incorporated, providing a coordinated solution from storage and discharge through to onward conveying.

For applications in hazardous areas, our equipment is available in compliance with ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU, ensuring safe and reliable operation in explosion-risk environments.
Temperature resistance
Our machines are engineered to match your specific requirements and operating environments, covering a wide range of operating temperatures – from extremely low to very high temperature conditions.
Typical applications of the silo technology include:
- Storage and buffering of powders, granulates and blended products
- Intermediate storage of raw materials, residues, biomass and alternative fuels
- Controlled discharge of free-flowing, poor-flowing and compaction-prone bulk materials
- Consistent feeding of downstream conveying and dosing systems
- Filling and discharge in continuous or batch processes
- Integration into existing plants or incorporation into new process lines
Our silo technology combines application-specific storage design with a coordinated discharge concept – ensuring material is available as required and supporting reliable downstream operation.
Designed for real process conditions
In day-to-day industrial operation, materials, processes and load conditions are constantly changing. DI MATTEO takes typical plant requirements into account already during planning and engineering.
Abrasive bulk materials, dust, material build-up and varying material properties place demanding requirements on systems and components.
Design features focused on practical plant operation
