    Grain Storage – Shipping Containers

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

    Grain Storage in Shipping Containers - Dallas TX, Using 360 Products North America Dry-Con X Ventilation System

    The challenge

    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.

    The DRY-CON X solution

    John installed the 360 Products DRY-CON X® venting system to move air through the sealed storage containers.

    Documented outcome

    According to John, the interior environment dramatically improved. The container is now comfortable to enter even on extreme heat and humidity days, and the venting successfully curtailed the moisture-related grain loss.

    “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!”
