DAIRY Collinson open new hub for TriStor collection Silo manufacturer Collinson have opened a collection only hub for their low cost, smaller capacity storage TriStor silo in Newton Stewart. Farmers can now undertake their own collection saving the delivery charge, not only that but it is ideal for a speedy silo solution. When it comes to looking after your livestock, feed is a major cost, so it pays to take all steps to reduce waste and ensure quality is maintained, this provides food for thought when looking at your winter storage plans; taking feed deliveries in larger quantities is guaranteed to save you money and improve efficiency. A relatively small investment in a silo can actually save you money in the long run. TriStor is a low cost kit form Silo ideal for taking smaller loads of either 4.8t or 7.6t with a choice of a versatile multi position chute, ideal to suit all sectors, saving time and money by discharging directly from the Silo into your snacker or a discharge to easily fill bags or barrows. Not only does a Tristor gain you a price advantage on feed delivery, it also stores your feed in a hygienic, rodent free environment and eliminates the manual handling issues and bag disposal problems. TriStor’s can be delivered directly to your site or for additional savings they can be collected, in kit form for final on site assembly, ex works from our site in Lancashire or for your added convenience the new hub in Newton Stewart. If building up a kit form Silo on site isn’t a viable option for you then maybe our T1 range is of more interest, also available in smaller capacities and available for delivery and erection by Collinson. Models are available in a galvanised steel finish as standard with the option to upgrade to a choice of 6 different colours of Plasteel™. Conditions may be harsh but with the correct management efficiency is possible and British agriculture will continue to thrive!
