Easy to install, operate and maintain, DSH dust control systems improve health and safety standards, mitigate the risk of dust explosions and reduce cleaning costs. By removing air from product, they also increase storage capacity without reducing load times, improving loading efficiency into trucks, rail, ships and other containers from a single feed point.

The DSH (Dust Suppression Hopper) System is installed beneath a feed point, where natural agitation during filling helps exclude air. During loading or transfer, the system discharges dry goods as a solid column through free air into trucks, rail cars, barges, stockpiles, storage containers or bags, significantly reducing dust.

Standard models require no utilities and have no internal moving parts, while the PFC (Programmable Feed Control) system automatically configures the hopper for variable product weights. DSH systems are designed for dry, granular, free-running products, with ongoing research expanding the range of tested materials.

Most systems integrate easily into existing facilities with minimal downtime. Where required, site-specific engineering solutions are provided. Hoppers can be manufactured from polyethylene, Corten, Hardox, or 304 and 316 stainless steel.

DSH hoppers were developed specifically to reduce dust, hazards, health risks and product loss during bulk loading. We offer onsite trials using two display models – contact us to arrange a free trial.

We manage your silo project from initial design and planning through manufacture, delivery, assembly, and commissioning. Our team coordinates the full installation to keep the build safe, compliant, and on programme, with a focus on reliable discharge and long service life. Each system is engineered around your product, throughput, and site constraints, whether you are in farming, industry, or commercial operations.

Types of silos

• Flat-bottom silos: ideal for large-capacity, long-term bulk storage, commonly paired with swept augers or reclaim systems for controlled discharge.
• Hopper-bottom silos: supports efficient and complete discharge, suited to smaller volumes, batching, or frequent product changeovers.
• Square or rectangular silos: space-efficient options for tight footprints, often used in process plants or restricted sites.
• Smooth-wall silos: reduces residue build-up, suited to meals, flours, and other fine materials where clean-out matters.
• Feed silos: designed for livestock feed storage with attention to flow, weather protection, and hygienic handling.
• Stainless steel silos: selected for food-grade duties, chemicals, or corrosive environments where cleanliness and durability are critical.
• Composite (GRP) silos: lightweight and corrosion-resistant, well suited to outdoor, coastal, or aggressive environments.
