We offer a number of different products that can be used to create a silage clamp. You can read specific product information below, however please do contact us for advice and any questions related to your requirements; we are happy to help.
The maximum height of your silage clamp will depend upon the product being used, generally it is most cost effective to a maximum of around 3.2m, however we can provide precast walls of 4m high, which can be beneficial for larger clamps and anaerobic digestion plants. When constructing a silage clamp it is very important to consider the loadings being placed on the walls, particularly when the silage is going to be rolled, creating an additional surcharge.
If you are constructing a silage clamp it is always advisable to get a structural engineer to sign off the design. We can assist you in obtaining this. We can also offer installation advice, or a supply and installation quotation for our concrete silage panels.

PRESTRESSED CONCRETE PANELS
Our prestressed concrete panels can be clipped to the internal face of a steel frame or placed into the web of the steel.
We can manufacture panels to whatever length you require up to a maximum of 6096mm (depending on loadings).
An alternative option is using vertical cantilever panels as these do not require steels. Instead, they can be embedded into a concrete foundation and tied to the floor slab.
For more information about using our prestressed concrete panels, call us now on 01273 646 450.
PRECAST RETAINING WALLS
We can manufacture and supply L-shaped retaining wall units for building silage clamps.
Our units can be cast into a new concrete floor slab to prevent the toe from protruding and creating an obstruction. Alternatively, the walls can be bolted onto existing concrete base.
When the silage is being rolled, the retaining walls need to achieve a maximum height of 3200mm.
Our precast retaining walls are suitable for retaining on one or both sides and an additional surcharge can be applied (depending on the height of the unit).
