Bidragon Square Silos | Bidragon Steel Silos
Bidragon square silos are a square-format storage structure, offered as an alternative to round silos where the site or the building layout favours a rectangular footprint. The product documentation states that a square silo blends well with its surroundings and uses space efficiently during installation.
The structure is described in terms of vertical columns that carry the building structural load of the square silo. With a suitable sealant, the components can serve directly as external walls, and the components and columns can be coated as required. The product documentation also describes a delivery to Indonesia in early 2021, in which square silo raw material was supplied for a customer to store plastic pellets in custom sizes; installation was completed locally within half a month with drawings and photo and video support while travel was not possible. That account is reported here as the product documentation presents it.

Applications
Square silos are described for sites where a rectangular footprint, efficient use of space or integration with a building matters. The documented Indonesian delivery concerned storage of plastic pellets in custom sizes, which illustrates that dimensions are project-specific. Because no diameter or capacity figure appears on the product page, those values must be confirmed per project and must not be borrowed from round silos on this site.
How this product fits in a storage line
Agricultural silos are normally planned as part of a handling line, not as isolated tanks. Infeed, cleaning, drying, ventilation, level measurement and outfeed all affect the workable result, and the choice of roof, bottom and discharge arrangement depends on the grain or feed, the throughput and the site layout. A buyer comparing agricultural silos should therefore ask how each of those systems is supplied, whether it is included in the proposal or provided separately, and how the silo connects to existing handling equipment. Those questions are part of the inquiry process for every agricultural silo on this site.
What to confirm in your inquiry
Because silo requirements depend on the material, the site and the handling system, the following items are confirmed per project before any quotation is issued. Sending these details with your inquiry helps the supplier respond with a workable proposal rather than a generic price.
- Material to be stored, including bulk density, moisture content and flow behaviour, and whether the material is free-flowing or prone to bridging.
- Required storage capacity and any future expansion allowance, together with the available footprint and height limit at the site.
- Discharge method and downstream equipment, such as a screw conveyor, a pneumatic conveying line or a packing machine.
- Roof and bottom configuration, including whether a flat bottom, hopper bottom or elevated arrangement suits the discharge and foundation plan.
- Ventilation, level measurement, temperature monitoring and dust control requirements, where the stored material or local rules call for them.
- Surface protection and coating requirements, the installation method available at the site, and the delivery scope expected from the supplier.
- Any applicable design standard or local code that the project must follow, so that the proposal can be checked against it.
Where a value is not listed on this page, it is not a standard figure for this product. It is a project-specific figure to be confirmed in writing during the inquiry process, and it should not be assumed from another product on this site.
