During Q3 and Q4 2013 two large square silo installations will be erected in Germany. Both projects concern greenfield feed mills and are turn-key projects of Ottevanger Milling Engineers from the Netherlands.

Engineering and production of the square silo installations is currently at full pace. The first new factory is one of Luxembourg Cooperative Versis DE Verband and will be built in Perl in Saarland in Germany, only 10 km from the border with Luxembourg. The square raw materials and finished goods silos add up to almost 100 bins and 7.500m3 of storage capacity.

The other investment in a compound feed plant is a joint venture of Jäckering Mühlen- und Nährmittelwerke GmbH together with Raiffeisen-Warenzentrale Kurhessen-Thüringen and Raiffeisen Hellweg Lippe eG. Together they will operate this new plant that will be built in the harbor of Hamm in Germany. They will store around 8.500 m3 of raw materials and finished products in over 80 square cells.
