Project Title / Client Name

Grain Storage in Shipping Containers – Dallas, TX

Project Type

Moisture Prevention and Heat and Odor control for shipping containers used for grain storage

Goal

Reduce or stop grain loss caused by moisture buildup and improve air quality inside sealed storage containers

Products Used

360 Products DRY- CON X ® venting system

Result

John stores one-ton sacks of grain inside ground-level shipping containers, with the grain elevated on pallets so it does not touch the floor. Despite this, the sealed containers would regularly trap heat and humidity, creating moisture conditions that damaged the grain ( up to 30% loss) and produced toxic, overwhelming fumes—especially during periods of high heat. After installing the 360 Products DRY-CON X ® venting system, the interior environment dramatically improved. According to John, the container is now comfortable to enter even on extreme heat and humidity days, and the venting has successfully curtailed the moisture-related grain loss. John expressed strong satisfaction, noting that the product made a significant difference in solving these long-standing issues.

Customer Comments : 

“I can’t explain what a difference your product has made for my container. On a day like yesterday with high heat and humidity the inside of that container would normally be unbearable. Thousands of pounds of feed, a sealed container, high heat and humidity created toxic fumes that were overwhelming. Your venting system has corrected these issues and now my container is comfortable to enter even on these extreme days. Thank you for a great product!”
