Agricultural Storage

Durable, corrosion-resistant roofing & siding for agricultural storage

Farmers, growers, storage companies and logistic companies that need to store agricultural goods require an environment that is protected against wind and rain. Palram offers lightweight PALRUF corrugated PVC sheets that are easy to install and maintain; and are rust-proof, corrosion-resistant, and durable so they last for years. In addition, it is important to allow natural light into the environment that it is comfortable and productive. With Palram's MetalMatch Technology, planners can easily incorporate a skylight into any roofing profile.

Applications

Silos & Barns

When storing grains, a dry environment is vital for protecting them from mold and fungus. At the same time, it’s important to balance production costs. PALRUF corrugated PVC sheets make for an excellent roof covering and allow builders to widen the purlins spans and to save on construction and installation without compromising the roof’s integrity. SUNTUF corrugated polycarbonate can also act as a skylight by using SolarSmart technology to allow for selective light transmission.

Main Benefits

Rust free

Corrosion-resistant

Leak-proof

Easy to install and maintain

Animal Feed Centers

The process of making feed mash for farm animals requires the storage of fresh food in an environment that protects against wind and rain, and reduces the risk of mold and fungus growth. PALRUF corrugated PVC sheets are both durable and leak-proof, thus preventing moisture infiltration. In addition, these materials are inherently resistant to mold growth and can endure frequent chemical cleanings.

Main Benefits

Leak-proof material prevents contamination of foodstuffs

Endures frequent cleanings with corrosive chemicals

Easy to install and maintain

Fertilizer Storage Facilities

Fertilizers become extremely corrosive when stored in an enclosed environment, and can quickly damage metal and other enclosures. PALRUF PVC corrugated roofing panels and AG-TUF PVC liners are highly resistant to this corrosive environment and last for many years.

Main Benefits

Resistant to rust and most corrosion

Resistant to chemical cleaners and fertilizer fumes

Leak-proof

Easy to install and maintain

Packaging & Handling Areas

When packaging and handling agricultural goods, both high production and low waste are required. To facilitate these conditions, the environment needs to be comfortable, dry and well-lit. Finally, these requirements must be balanced with production costs. Builders can use PALRUF corrugated PVC sheets for roof coverings in order to widen the purlins and save on construction and installation costs. Moreover, SUNTUF corrugated polycarbonate can be used for skylights that allow natural light to enter and help create a productive environment.
