Choosing a silo or tank might seem simple. But those who truly delve into material choice, application and lifespan quickly realize: not every material is equal.
At Polem, we have been working exclusively with composite for over 50 years. And we have good reasons for that. Composite isn't a buzzword, it's a thoughtful choice. For you, and for your process.
No corrosion
Composite is naturally resistant to corrosion. That makes it ideal for aggressive substances, humid environments and outdoor storage. Where steel or stainless steel will eventually rust, composite remains intact. Even without coating.
Lightweight and strong
Composite silos are up to 70% lighter than steel. That means: easier transport, lighter foundation, faster installation. And at the same time: incredibly strong and resistant to high loads.
Insulating properties
Composite has excellent thermal properties. It limits condensation formation and keeps the temperature in the silo more stable. Perfect for food safety and product quality.
Seamless design
Our silos and tanks are produced as one whole, without seams or welds. No weak spots, no leakage. A smooth wall from top to bottom.
Hygienic and easy to clean
The inner wall is mirror-smooth. That means: fewer product residues, less cleaning time, and less chance of contamination. In food & feed, that's pure profit.
Less maintenance, longer lifespan
Composite is low-maintenance. No rust treatment, no additional coatings, no annual repairs. Simply: years of reliable use, with minimal downtime and lower TCO.
A Polem silo isn't an option. It's the solution.
Our customers don't choose composite 'because they can'. They choose it because it's smarter. More reliable. More sustainable. And future-oriented.
Whether you're active in food, feed, industry, chemicals or de-icing: composite is the material for modern storage solutions.
