Solutions for handling cereal grains, oilseeds, and derivatives

Around the globe, uncountable ships, road and rail vehicles are loaded and unloaded every day in numerous ports and terminals. After unloading, the bulk materials are either gently reloaded or transferred to storage systems, where they are precleaned or cleaned, weighed, and adequately stored. From the storage system, the material is retrieved for onward transport or for processing. The Buhler Grain Handling business unit offers the special equipment required for each of these subprocesses, combining them into total solutions tailored to customers’ specific needs.
